Hey everyone,
I have started using the Amps in the Axe-fx on my gigs, going through the house PA. I feel like the sound is thin compared to a normal Fender Twin, which is what I am used to. I have been trying to tweek the Double Verb preset with the Double verb mix cab and to me there is a difference in body, and overall brightness. On the Fender Twin I usuall turn the bright switch off and the treble all the way off as well. when i do this on the double verb model it is still very bright coming out of the monitors. im not sure if i am setting everything right. another thing i find is that i cant put the input gain past 1.4 without getting distortion, but the tone seems weak when the input is so low. i want a clean sound thats fat and big, more mid than bright. I think my gain staging is not right somehow. if i turn the amp up from the master or the input gain it not only goes into amp breakup but also clips the output a lot. should i just turn the output level down after the amp sim? is there somewhere a tutorial discussing these things? im sure there is. If anyone wants to help that'd be great.
thanks,
Kurt
