it's emulating a STUDIO setup where you put effects after the mic on the cab.Hi, seems in real life pedals either feed the amp or are in the effects looks, the power stage, and then cab. Why are people wanting to put the cab right after the amp? Seems it would be more realistic to put it last?
I'd recommend becoming familiar with the Wiki and manual, as they cover these sort of questions and will save you a lot of time.Hi, seems in real life pedals either feed the amp or are in the effects looks, the power stage, and then cab.

In the "real" analog world, it makes a difference where you put effects: before or after the speaker cabinet. It's different with digital processors.
(Javajunkie, Axe-Fx Standard/Ultra) "You can place the effects loop anywhere in the chain (just add the fx loop block). Unless you are running a stereo cab or 2 mono cabs panned hard L/R, you may want to place stereo effects after the cab. The cab is a linear time invariant effect (unless you add drive) so effects like delay and reverb will sound the same before or after it. As Cliff and others have stated on numerous occasions LTI effects can be placed before and after each other and they will sound the same. Only when placed before or after non-LTI effects (drive, amps, et. al) it really matters. The one caveat there is that some effects are mono, placing effects before and after that makes a difference." [9][…]"The difference in having the cabinet before or after the effects is usually subtle. It depends on how non-linear or time-variant the effect is. For effects like EQ, which are linear and time-invariant, it doesn't matter at all. For slightly time-variant effects like chorus and flanger the difference isn't very pronounced. For highly time-variant effects, like pitch shifting, the difference can be marked."

Actually, placing time-based and modulation effects after the cab is more "realistic", as you are usually emaulating the impact of a room. Just tougher to do in a live conventional setup and where a modeler gives us the freedom to explore more easily.

Think of the whole chain like this: guitar -> amp -> cab -> microphone -> console w/ final fx processing.Hi, seems in real life pedals either feed the amp or are in the effects looks, the power stage, and then cab.

Yes... Typical for a recording rig, but not for a live rig where effects are either before the Amp or in the effects loop (which we don't have the option to do in the Axe Fx).Think of the whole chain like this: guitar -> amp -> cab -> microphone -> console w/ final fx processing.

Delay and reverb are also handled by FOH mixer a lot of the times.Yes... Typical for a recording rig, but not for a live rig where effects are either before the Amp or in the effects loop (which we don't have the option to do in the Axe Fx).
As a guitarist using delay, you want to have delay in your mix... That's not going to be handled by FOH.Delay and reverb are also handled by FOH mixer a lot of the times.
