Axe-Fx II and AX8: The output block has a fixed position at the end of the grid.

Axe-Fx III: The output blocks which can be positioned freely on the grid. Product information:

Output block and Copy Output in the I/O menu (Axe-Fx III)

When the preset contains an Output block, it overrides the corresponding Copy Output setting in I/O > Audio.
