Load up my Axe 3 at rehearsal last week. For some reason, my Axe into Matrix and 1960A 4x12 had very little "bite and gain" on my higher gain presets. I recently took a beta update but everything worked ok at home.
Probably my cable. Swaps guitar cable, no difference.
Ah, probably my active pickups dying. Swap battery, nothing
Ran home, swapped guitar, nothing.
Swapped channels on the matrix, nope, not that.
Swapped speaker cable to cab, nope
Swapped CABINET!!! Nope..
Removed power conditioner and went right to outlet, nope
All sorts of axe settings..input gain, different amps, tried cab modeling on/off...NOTHING!!!
Broke everything down and went to other side of stage, maybe outlet is being weird or something (all ideas out the window at this point)
20 minutes later we say "fuck it" and run with it and I realize my footpedal was half down the entire time. Footpedal is always attached to gain as my boost.
Probably my biggest gear mishap in my 20 years playing. I'm an idiot!!!!!
