Padding Down the Guitar Analog Input by -6 db .... is this the best way .... ?

[ben ifin]

Hey all !

On the Axe 3 I want to pad-down the analog guitar input by -6 db - and I dont want to use an external pedal before the guitar input.

So far, my best thought / option is setting the "Input Block" Output to -6db [ from its default of 0.0db ].

To my ears this "sounds right" but I was wondering if there was a "better" / "more ideal" way to do it (?)

Thanks in advance,
Ben

Yup.

Alas, Level in Input has no modifier so you can’t assign a switch.

Does that mean that you adjust this in the input block for each preset, and not as a global setting?

I’m currently on AX8 and I’m trying to understand some of the differences before making the switch.

The Input block can be configured as a global block. In that case a setting applies to all presets with that global block.

You can also use a (Global or non-Global) Volume block. Or use Input Trim in the Amp block to pad.
