The amp models in the Axe reproduce the sound of the reference amps owned by Fractal Audio. What part of that do you not understand?
The quickest way to reproduce the sound of your amps at a given setting is to profile them. Who doesn't know that the Axe FX reproduces the tone stack of the amp model? That's obvious. However, when you start adding PEQ or GEQ blocks, you're not manipulating the tone stack. And I regularly use PEQ blocks simply because the bass, mid and treble knobs don't shape the tone in ways I need to shape it. But that's what the PEQ, compressor and other blocks are for. But once you start adding them, you're deviating from the sound of the amps controls.the whole circuit and tone stack is modeled, makes it interactive, like I said kemper does not accurately capture the cab interaction so I have to do the same tweakes as I would on the axe but loose fx slots
-
the kemper doesent take the speaker interaction either play a rig and not frfr
-
and I need the eq slot to compensate on where it lacks
-
Now if say I want to add a filter and eq to make my sound change I’m killing 2 post slots other than delay and reverb. If for instance you want to emulate a Mesa 5 band 2 eq, a boost noise gate post then no eq, the limitations suck, if it did what it should do correctly I have no issue
-
No see it captures one tone and axe captures full amp control of said amp, if my flavor changes I need a new profile in kemper if it’s axe then I tweak the eq and amp controls that’s my point and it’s dead on

This also goes for Pete’s reampzone and sinmix

I’m not trying to call people out but damn

If it takes a lot of work to make a profile sound good, just find another profile. Further, what profile pack are you talking about that has a bunch of profiles with all of the knobs set to noon and a crappy mic'd cab? My question is why you'd buy such a pack without listening to samples first?
Matt Fig they can’t be tweaked right
-
why are people profiling a axe with lackluster results?
-
So I buy a pack for 20.00 of a Friedman profiled with knobs at noon and a poor ir, then can’t tweak that profile correctly cause the eq is wrong, so I use a third party ir anyways with no amp customization
-
Better yet, why don't I post a KPA sample and you try and match it perfectly with the Axe using no additional blocks?
I would if I had one and could cause it’s easy
-
Again, please quote the text you're responding to so we have some idea what you're talking about.
Ok sinmix I use celestion ir, fja jerry o used celestion ir, mark Cameron I use celestion ir cause I don’t like the capture

I'm using the latest 9.0 beta firmware, and I've owned the Axe FX II XL+ for almost 2 years.
trade me your xl
-
and I only use Ir on even commercials cause it sucks

I love the Axe FX, but it's not as plug and play as the Kemper. It takes a little tweaking to get something great out of it, but yes, it's capable of some awesome tones. No question. It's just a different animal.
then your outdated on it
-
Huh?
it’s all in the amp block no slot used

and I hate Cliff, but can’t deny unit to unit and commitment
