Mixer: in the owner's manuals

  • Axe-Fx II: 5.18 Mixer [MIX]
  • Axe-Fx II: 5.36 Output Mixer
  • Axe-Fx II: 16.11 Mixology

Mixer: supported by which products?

  • Axe-Fx II: yes.
  • AX8: ...
  • FX8: no.

Mixer types: preset mixer and block effect

  • The grid output also contains a Mixer. It has a Level control which controls the overall volume of the preset. Its setting can be different for each preset scene, see Scenes.

Mixer and X/Y switching

  • The Axe-Fx II XL adds X/Y switching capability.
  • The Mixer block in the XL can be bypassed.

Mixer in the first column

  • A Mixer block in the first column on the grid operates differently. Only Gain and Balance for the first row are functional, the others are ignored.

Using Mixer for routing

  • Attach an external controller (switch) to the Mixer for switching purposes. Example: operating the pedal or switch can enable one row (effect) and bypass another. This lets you use a single pedal to operate as a Wah (Wah block) or a Whammy (Pitch block). More information: Expression pedals, external switches.
