4dB
Similar here. I use a 3dB mid boost at around 650hz.I don’t push the volume, I just add more mids. Normally I do that by just selecting the MID ir in the ownhammer pack.
How do you implement this? I utilize the filter block and do a db boost. Can you add mids from that block? I put it last in chain.4db plus mids
It's funny cause you'd think the guitar solo implies it's the guitars time in the mix, but pretty much every band I've been in, the whole band goes full blast whenever I'm soloing lol...

Sweet. Thanks bro!I use a Graphic EQ block, easy to add a bit of mids if needed. In the filter block you can switch from a null filter to a peaking filter and then add the mid frequency, db boost and q for the peak. You might also want to look into cutting low end when playing lead as well.
Instead of mid boost, I just roll off highs in addition to around 4db overall boost. I like the high cut better than the mid boost because I like to keep the lows
How many db is the boost switch in the amp block? 16?
I believe it is 12... But note that this is boosting amp input gain, not preset volume.How many db is the boost switch in the amp block? 16?
usually 4 to 5.
Our keyboardist has the habit of playing louder during my solos than he does in the rest of the song.
I can't make him stop

The end result will be different on every amp type and affected by other amp block settings.
Couldn't remember if the ability to adjust was only on the Axe Fx III or if it was also on the II.When you are in the amp block in Axe Edit, and you go to the 2nd tab, I believe, sort of to the bottom, and just right of center, is the rotary knob for controlling the input boost. The default is 12db, but you can change it with the pot. Again, while that does increase volume usually, it is more for increasing the overdrive of the pre-amp tubes, from your guitar signal.
I attach a modifier to the output volume knob, and control it with midi messages. I'm in the 4db-ish camp - just depends on the song, my sound, and what I find works with the band. I start about 4db and adjust up or down, after I hear how my tone sits in with everything. It's really difficult to do at home, alone.
