Here's a video from a short tweaking session :
In my original 5 scenes presets, each scene sets a different amount of gain in the amp block. Scene 1 is clean, scene 2 edge of breakup, scene 3 crunch, scene 4 mid gain, scene 5 high gain for soloing.
Here, I'm showing how to change a 5 scenes preset into a continuous controlled one, using an expression pedal. I captured the process in real time so there's some trial and error. The main difficulty is to have a constant volume over the course of the expression pedal.
The same editing principle works for the AX8 ; in fact it's a preset I imported from the AX8, that's why I'm using a filter block for the amp volume - in the Axe-Fx II it's possible to assign a controller to the amp "Level" parameter, but not in the AX8.
One lesson to learn : even the mighty HBE can be cleaned
