When I got the Axe-FxIII and plugged it into my studio speakers, it was like magic. Without even tweaking anything, I loved all the sounds immediately. I've been using it to record guitar and bass ever since, and have been extremely happy with the sounds I'm getting.
Recently, I decided I'd like to use the Axe to play gigs. I ordered the special humbuster cord from Fractal and hooked the Axe up to my Egnater tube amp (clean channel, no reverb, middled all the tone knobs). The resulting sound is not good in my opinion. It's thin and harsh, nothing like what I get through my studio speakers.
My question is...what are most of you doing to get a great live sound out of the Axe? Do you have to go straight into a PA or go through some kind of flat response speaker? Maybe I need to run two amps in stereo to get that great Axe sound? Does anyone out there use a regular guitar amp with the Axe?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions..............
