Axe-Master
I posted a while back on what a nightmare I've had trying to use the AxeII fx only with a Matchless DC30 at church. I tried everything. Input only, 4cm, into the return with cabs disabled. EVERYTHING was bad. There was this clipping digital distortion on everything. Before with just the Axe I had issues with it was well, although it wasn't as prominent. I've gone back and forth with our FOH guys and tech crew replacing cables, mic's trying different channels...you name it. Nothing worked. So today between our 3rd and 4th service of the morning we had a few minutes and it had been super bad all morning. I played and the FOH said it sounded great, crystal clear. I assumed it must be in the Aviom system and asked him to plug into my Aviom unit so he could hear what I have to hear. He does so, looks at me quizzically and says "it's crystal clear". I said there was no way, plugged my custom molded Alclair's in and there it was....snap, crackle, and fizz. He hands me some Westone triple driver universals we keep for our singers to use. Again, CRYSTAL CLEAR. It's been my IEM's all along. I never even considered the possibility since they are only a few months old.
Can't believe that's been the issue all this time. Makes sense in hindsight...being the common denominator and all....
