Quick Live recorded A/B Shootout between the NEW Quantum 10 firmware and the previous Quantum 9.04. I am using an AX8 to A/B switch the signal into 2 x AXE FX IIs. One with Quantum 10 (AXE FX II mkII Unit - Bottom) and the other with Quantum 9.04 (AXE FX II XL+ unit - Top) The presets are identical in each unit. Nothing fancy either. All controls are set to NOON - except for the USA IIC++ presets - as they require different EQing to sound "correct". You can see the settings in the short screen grab i display before each demo. The Cab is a wav IR loaded on the output bus within Cubase. I did this to remove any chance of variation within the different firmwares CAB block. This way we are looking at ONLY the tonal differences of the firmwares. the CAB is a blend of a Mesa Recto w/ V30s - a Marshall with Greenbacks - and an Orange w/ V30s. All Mic'd with multiple SM57s in a "Full Spectrum" configuration (IE, all points of the Speaker have been Mic'd and blended into a single IR)
