Question
Hi Scorpion. I guess this qeustion is about both Dave's and Chris's amp set-up. I have been reading up on the Axe-Fx II unit. I always thought it was played directly through their Marshall amps, but from what I understand, this can't or shouldn't be done. So how do impliment these units in the bands set-up? What's the signal path?
Thank you

Hey Lu-Jean,
The signal starting from the guitar runs as such: guitar to the rear input of the
Fractal, the signal is then split into an out that runs to a Marshall mono block power amp and out to the guitar speakers. The other out of the fractal has a speaker simulation on it and runs strait to the P.A. From there the sound engineer takes the signals and combines them in an amount he thinks is appropriate. This is a fairly typical use of the Fractal and is not detrimental in any way.
Hope this gives some clarity on Megadeth's setup.
