I most always leave my output block setting to default and after tweaking effects, etc., I adjust the Amp Block level to just where the meters on the AXE display screen, are barely hitting the red. I balance all my presets to achieve the same volume. Then use the Out knobs on the front of the AXE to give me my stage volume and FOH signal strength. For me it's 75% for stage volume going into my amp and 50% for FOH. But there will be differences with different setups.Thanks Unix-Guy, I brought it down.
