Function of the Output block
The output block is the area where the signal exits the grid. It contains a mixer.
Output blocks in the Axe-Fx III
Outputs:
- 1: transmits signal to the physical Output 1 jacks and to USB Inputs 1+2 on a connected computer.
- 2: transmits signal to the physical Output 2 jacks and to USB Inputs 3+4 on a connected computer.
- 3: transmits signal to the physical Output 3 jacks.
- 4: transmits signal to the physical Output 4 jacks.
The Output 1 block signal may also be transmitted through the digital outputs if SPDIF/AES Out Source in I/O is set to Output 1. The Output 1 block signal may also be transmitted through Output 2 if Output 2 Copy Output 1 in I/O is turned on and the Output 2 block is not present on the grid.
The Output 2 block signal may also be transmitted through the digital outputs if SPDIF/AES Out Source in I/O is set to Output 2.
The Output blocks can be muted. The signal is muted at the corresponding output AND on the grid.
The Output blocks have 4 channels.
(Axe-Fx III) "Each output block has a row mixer and master level." source
Output block level and scenes (not on Axe-Fx III)
The output level is stored per scene, in the AX8 and Axe-Fx II. This does not apply to the Axe-Fx III.
Position of the Output block
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:
"Routing flexibility is enhanced by unconstrained placement of input and output blocks anywhere in the routing grid. Want to insert different outboard devices at different parts of the signal path? No problem. Simultaneously process discrete stereo output for acoustic and electric guitars? Easy. Send stereo to front-of-house, plus a true “Wet-Dry-Wet” on stage while recording a DI for re-amping later? No problem! Each output pair also has its own dedicated front panel LEVEL knob for convenient control."
When the preset contains an Output block, it overrides the corresponding Copy Output setting in I/O > Audio.
