See post #4 above.It's only repeatable of you choose to paint on your AxeFX. I prefer not to.

You're mixing your in-ears by adjusting levels on individual equipment? I feel for you, brother.My band uses this to keep consistent input levels to our in-ears.
We dial in with specific values at rehearsal and use the same ones live.
But "it's worked fine for 70 years" is only part of the message. The full message is, "It's worked fine for 70 years, the new method adds complexity and takes more time, and I don't see that it adds any value."You obviously see the benefit of repeatability and accuracy, so what could be more repeatable and accurate than an exact value? I mean, one can make the "it's worked fine for 70 years" argument about many solutions provided in the box - doesn't make them bad
True, but we guitarists figured out parallax long ago.A knob position can visually appear different depending on viewing angle, etc...
That's not how my world works.Granted this assumes presets are not getting tweaked, etc...
I didn't say, "Abandon the request." I said, "I don't get it." I still don't.And while it shouldn't need saying, one person not needing the precision and accuracy is hardly cause for another person to abandon their feature request.
We've already mixed the in-ears. Sending the exact same levels as when we mixed (at rehearsal) means one less thing to deal with when we get to the gig.You're mixing your in-ears by adjusting levels on individual equipment? I feel for you, brother.
If you don't have to adjust your ear mix for different venues (e.g., different drum location or proximity), that's great. Still, it's achievable with a piece of tape and a tick mark, to within the human ear's ability to discriminate.We've already mixed the in-ears.

I'm with you on this one, finding a position of the knob that's easily, accurately repeatable really isn't that difficult. Becoming much ado about nothing. Not that the request is invalid, just seems like people are blowing the "need" way out of proportion.I didn't say, "Abandon the request." I said, "I don't get it." I still don't.
First this is a digital unit that does anything, so the request is definitely doable. Second you are right with old tube amps and knobs, but the typically had some markers across the circular path telling you where you are.....Axe Fx III has nothing. Part of having digital is so you can get detailed and get super repeatable. This feature is missing and I would love for them to implement.I don’t get it. People have been playing live electric guitar for 70 years. Turning a knob to a favorite position has been the method of choice. It’s wonderfully repeatable, unbeatably fast, and as precise as you’ll ever need. What’s the benefit of “I always run my output knob at exactly 73%, and I need to know if I screwed up and set it to 72%.”?
I see it - And along the same lines, I do not paint the names of my kids on their foreheads - This is ugly to look at.See post #4 above.
Correct. We are a 100% direct band with a silent stage...If you don't have to adjust your ear mix for different venues (e.g., different drum location or proximity), that's great. Still, it's achievable with a piece of tape and a tick mark, to within the human ear's ability to discriminate.
Exactly this!All our in-ear mixes and FOH mix has been dialled in at rehearsal, we operate without a sound guy, so if I mess up my send level, I mess up everybody's mix.
As I understand it, you’re not asking for a missing feature; you’re asking for an existing feature to be relocated. Correct?This feature is missing and I would love for them to implement.
Can you configure the Global Performance Page to include Output 1 Level? Mine is configured to show that, though I attached a controller directly to the Level control in the Out 1 block rather than use the Setup/MidiRemote/Other option; not sure if these two methods are equivalent.On a related note, I have a CC coming in from a slider on my keyboard and attached to the Axefx's "Output 1 Volume" in Setup/MidiRemote/Other. Works great for a quick and easy volume control in slider format, HOWEVER, I've found no place in Axefx (visual or physical) where I can see how this volume is currently set (maybe its there and I missed it?) - got caught really scratching my head a few times with no sound from Axefx but no output levels are turned down anywhere from looking at fp or AE (forgot I had turned it down with keyboard slider).
Output1 Level can be added to the performance page, but, if there's a CC attached to it in the setup/midi/other page, changes resulting from CCs will not be reflected in the displayed value either on the perform page if you have it there, or directly in the output block. I don't have an issue with it really - more of a heads up that, if you put a CC on there (in setup/midi/other) and it gets turned down unnoticed, you have no way to see that it is turned down by looking at any value in the Front Panel or AxeEdit menus as far as I can see - betcha some of the past "omg! - no sound from my Axefx" posts might have been caused by this.Can you configure the Global Performance Page to include Output 1 Level?

Fortunately, children can be quickly identified without labels. If it were not so, I would forego paint in favor of a tattoo....I do not paint the names of my kids on their foreheads - This is ugly to look at.
