Axe-Fx II, connected as
desired to
monitors/mixers/amps/
etc. (see other diagrams
for setup ideas)
Outboard Processor or
Preamp
Global Settings:
See Below
I/O Settings:

Notes:
The Axe-Fx II has a stereo FX Loop that allows you to insert outboard gear such as preamps or processors at
almost any point in the signal chain of any preset. You’ll learn more about editing presets in section
4
, and the
Effects Loop block is detailed on page
66
. For now, just be aware that custom presets are required for the Effects
Loop to be used. The Effects Loop configuration above is compatible with other setups that do not utilize INPUT2 or
OUTPUT2 for other purposes. Global and I/O options should be set accordingly.
Axe-Fx II Digital Audio Interconnection

COMPONENTS:
Guitar
Axe-Fx II
Mixer, recorder,
computer, etc. with
digital (S/PDIF or
AES/EBU) inputs and/or
outputs
Global Settings:
Default
I/O Settings:
See below.
Notes:
The digital connector jacks on the Axe-Fx II allow it to interface with a variety of devices with S/PDIF or
AES/EBU I/O. You can connect to the inputs of a digital mixer, for example, or process the signal from another unit
with a digital output, avoiding an unnecessary D/A:A/D roundtrip. The required clock rate for both input and output
signals is 48k. The onboard digital outs can monitor OUTPUT1, OUTPUT2, or the main INPUT, as specified in
USB/DIGI
OUT SOURCE
on the AUDIO page of the I/O menu (p.
135
). The
MAIN INPUT SOURCE
must be set to “SPDIF/AES” for
digital inputs to be connected to the grid. A valid signal must be present at the selected digital input or the Axe-Fx II
will display “NO INPUT CLOCK!”
