Hi,
finally got my axe-fx today and plugged it in, first thing I noticed is a loud hum...
I edited the noise gate settings, increasing the threshold to -50 removed it but when I play the gate opens and the hum is clearly audible, it mostly goes away if I rest my fingers on the strings of my guitar which leads me to two questions..
1- is this a problem with the ground in my guitar?
2- is there a way to change the vate settigs across all presets?
For info i have a musicman silhouette special going into the front of the axe-fx, then unbalanced output 1 into my speakers (embarassing multimedia ones) then headphones out of there. I have a behringer miniamp that people use on here which I will try tomorrow to try and rule out the speakers but I dont think this is the problem. The guitar as a humbucker in the bridge position but the hum can be heard with all three pickups.
Any ideas?
