Not sure who experiences this but it has been one of my pet peeves with the Axe since day one.
The level controls.
For example I place and amp in the layout, any amp, for this I’ll use the “Usa Clean”. I know the DRIVE/GAIN and MASTER work together and they both create distortion depending on their relation to each other. I get the sound I want a nice clean with very little distortion, then I adjust the “Layout, last tab, Level Control” to bring up the volume in relation to my other presets and it starts to add distortion. Why is this. Can’t I use that to bring up the level without adding distortion? Again I’m not talking about the master level to the right of the master volume in the amp setting, I am referring to the whole pre-set volume control.
