Does the AxeTrak work for clean tones?
Yes, most definitely. The AxeTrak was originally designed in 1993 for reproducing overdriven tones. However in the last few years we have made major improvements to our original unit so that the clean sounds are just as warm and true if not better than the overdriven tones. With the addition of our own AxeTrak brand speaker, custom cardiod dynamic microphone, and now the new ATV version which allows you to move the microphone direct on axis, the clean tones are crystal clear and warm. The only concern when recording clean tones is that they must be played at a slightly reduced volume as clean tones need to move more air to develop fully. Removing the deep port can also help significantly. The AxeTrak was designed to produce the mic’d cabinet sound but with certain emphasis in mind. Many of our customers use Mesa Boogies, Marshalls, Bogners, Fenders, Peaveys and numerous others. As long as the AxeTrak is used as described in the user manual it works great in just about any situation. By
