I'm about to purchase the AX8, and have been watching YouTube tutorials to try to get a jump on understanding the unit.
I would be using the AXEDIT software, and this would only be used in the studio.
I am hired to do many covers of songs, from rock to country to oldies to whatever.
So I need the usual suspects, a Vox/Matchless tone, a Marshall, a Fender, etc.
I'm trying to figure out the best way to set this up.
Would I make a VOX preset, and then do various scenes (DRY, with delay, with way, with....etc) then do the same for each AMP type (Marshall preset, etc). Or would that take too much processing power?
If I understand this right, if I have a scan that suddenly I decide needs chorus on it, I am out of luck and must go back to the preset and add the chorus, correct?
I would seldom if ever need to switch sounds in the middle of a track I was recording, unless suddenly a clean sound needed to go to a section that had a rotary or other effect on it...I would probably just do that section on another track in the DAW.
Anyway any suggestions I appreciated, I just need to have basic classic sounds easily and quickly recalled.
Thx
