This may be a dumb question but I'll ask anyway. Should the sound of the output from the headphone be the same as the output from the back of the Axe FXIII Output1 (or Output2)?
The reason I ask is that I have the headphone output going to a pair of Samson Media O-N-E powered studio monitors. They sound great for bedroom use and especially for effect chains that use stereo (delays, etc). The presets that come with the AF3 unit sound great thru this setup. Most of these presets however have just a single output block. The actual reason for this question is that I've purchased presets from third-party sources (who've sounded great on AF2 that I had), but these purchased presets usually have two Output blocks (1 for FOH and 1 to an amp on stage). These purchases presets sound much quieter than the regular presets that come with the unit (in general). I asked the third party about it but he doesn't really notice the difference (but his setup is not the same).
I guess I could try and find some cables to run from the back of the unit on Output 1 to the studio speaker input but not 100% on if I need a special 1/4" cable for that or if speaker or guitar type cables would be ok to use.
Just curious if anyone else on the site uses this type of setup or not? Or if anyone might have any ideas for settings/parameters to check?
Thanks,
Marty
