Hi guys. Very happy user of the Ax8 since january ´16. I've never experienced any sort of excessive noise before, but over the weekends gig it seems like it has developed a nasty noise - its there on clean or crunch, any amp, and I don't use much gain at all - I use the brit brown for example at drive= 0.70. (not 7, 0.7) Medium crunch at most.
I use the Out 1 at max (unity gain), and my levels are about -15 dB, matched using the VU meters in the Ax8. I've tried changing all cables, including using xlrs instead of jacks (which I've never had trouble with)
When I hook it up to my DAW, it has a noise floor of about -40 db, when I record at -6. That seems kinda high, doesn't it?
Btw: I use noisecancelling single coils and humbuckers mostly, but I've tried 3 different guitars, and the problem persists - strange thing is, the noise is about the same with single coils OR humbuckers.
Puzzled...
