Hey there, it's Lucas, and welcome to my studio! Today, I'm going to show you how to turn your Fractal Audio Axe-Fx III into an amazing pedalboard using the four cable method with your tube amp. No worries if it seems confusing at first—I'll walk you through it all. If you want to skip the setup, grab the preset from my website's link in the description.

First, let's get the physical connections right, from guitar to input 1, output 3 to the amp's front, send out to input 4, and out 4 to the amp's return. Once that's set, we'll dive into Axe Edit to configure the settings properly. Don't forget to address potential noise issues that can arise with digital systems and amplifiers—like interference, digital equipment noise, and ground loops.

Now, let's talk pedals! I've carefully designed a pedalboard layout for you, including compressors, drives, noise gates, choruses, delays, reverbs, and a graphic EQ. I'll even give you some tips on setting spatial effects to mono for the best experience. And guess what? You can control it all with your Axe-Fx foot controller. I'll guide you through the foot layout, with functions like tap, channel switching, and even a tuner.

To make it more exciting, I'll share clips of me rocking out on this setup with my EVH Stealth amp. If you're ready to elevate your guitar sound and explore endless possibilities, join me in my studio and unleash the potential of the Fractal Audio Axe-Fx III as your ultimate pedalboard.
