I'm going to be playing at an open mic/jam tonight and they have a Peavey Windsor combo amp that I'll be plugging my Axe-Fx II into. In the past, I disconnected the guitar amp mic and plugged the XLR into my Axe-Fx II but they don't want me to do that, so I'll have to plug into their combo amp. I usually go straight from my Axe-Fx II to my FRFR Yamaha DXR12 powered cabs but I can't use them either.
I disabled the cab blocks in the Global settings and changed Output 1 to Sum L+R and plugged my Axe-Fx II into my super old Crate GX-60 combo amp to test how it would sound and it wasn't too bad. I'm going to bring my ART DTI Dual Transformer/Isolator just in case I get any ground loop noises.
I've never plugged a modeler into a real amp before and haven't used a real amp in over 10 years.

- Is there anything else I should do to my Axe-Fx II or the Peavey Windsor Combo amp?
- Should I plug into the High or Low gain input or the FX Loop Return on the combo? I'm thinking the FX Loop Return would be best because I think it bypasses the preamp.
- How much should I turn up Output 1 on my Axe-Fx II? Can I cause any harm to the combo amp?
