Hello,
yes I have followed many of the IR cabs threads and I know about the interactions of things. I have finetuned things and am still not fully convinced by my results. :roll:
I am not sure if this is due to limited programming capabilities or if the Axe does not live up to my expectations.
Nevertheless:
as a new owner of the Axe Standart I was wondering if I'm losing time trying to find the right setup using the stock cabs....
I wonder if I should take the shortcut and someone more experienced would say: ' The stock cab x should be replaced by redwire y... it is always the better choice'.
Is there such a simple formulae in some cases? Are the stock cabs a weak point on the Axe?
I don't neccessarily want to buy all of the redwire cabs since I don't know if I will keep the Axe. And returning many not wanted ones seems to me a bit impolite
. So what would a good starting point be and how to approach it.
Let's say I wanted a Celestion Blue 12:
Should I buy the Blue Speaker Series one or the Blue ones from the Big Boxes Series ... will they all sound very different?. Where to start.
Is there a top five Redwire ....( I know I know, what a question for clean to medium Rock.
Is there even a really good universal one? .... I think the uberkab has been mentioned as a possible candidate.
I just want to find out what I can expect from the Axe and if I should keep it.
I know and will tweak here and there (preamp/ amp/ mics) as good as I can, but I wish there was something like a reference preset done by a very experienced user which includes preamp/ amp/ cab/ mic/ EQ/ (Rev for air if neccessary) just too see what can be expected from the Axe.
For a Vox, a Fender Twin, Plexi, .... up to vintage, medium Rock... songwriter
No other effects....( I find most of the presets unusable for getting a good impression of the amps).
Many thanks for any reply to this very multifaceted question.
Best regards,
Rak
