What does the AxeTrak® do?

Enables true analog signal path for recording of thick warm rhythms, bright clean tones with lots of presence, and excellent lead tones 24/7 without being heard by your neighbors.
Solves the problem of having to record at ear blistering levels to capture the natural sounding distortion and overdrive produced by the speaker of a loud guitar amp.
  Top mounted thumbscrew enables the user to easily adjust the microphone position and angle giving you total flexibility on the type of tone you wish to record. We took your suggestions seriously!!!
Eliminates interference and the possibility of unexpected background noises affecting the recording of guitar tracks.
High frequency roll-off switch lets you roll off high-end presence with the flick of a switch. This is especially useful for high gain applications.
Enables any guitarist to record the sound and characteristics of their live rig (amp, pedals, racks, and other devices) but not wanting to haul around the speaker cabinets.
Totally isolates the guitar from other live instruments when used as a direct box for live performances.
Removable deep port extends low-end frequency response. Great for situations that require extreme low end punch.
Totally portable and does not require a power supply or battery. This device is extremely reliable and is not sensitive to voltage spikes and changes in AC power lines like digital signal processors. The AxeTrak® is a sturdy workhorse for the studio guitarist.
Makes a perfect late night practice speaker cabinet. You get the sound and feel of your live rig but at a level not much louder than a whisper.
Can provide a quiet rehearsal solution for any amplified band.  
 The speaker in the AxeTrak® produces an extremely warm tone with an almost vocal quality. It's response is true across the full spectrum of guitar frequencies. Your guitar tracks will sing and cut with incredible clarity and definition. 

  As most guitarists and studio musicians already know, it is virtually impossible to record natural sounding guitar tracks via the output jack (preamp out, line output, recording output or speaker output) of any guitar amp. The warm sound desired by most guitarists can only be created by the speaker of a good sounding guitar amp being mic'd in the right environment. Direct amplifier outputs sound fake, fuzzy and extremely harsh. The AxeTrak® alleviates this problem by allowing the user to connect directly from the speaker jack of their guitar amp to the input jack of the AxeTrak®. The output of the AxeTrak® is then plugged into a recording console, mixing board or computer soundcard using a standard low impedance microphone cable. This method of recording allows you to get a direct signal that includes the preamp tubes as well as the power tubes if using a tube amp. This is very important if you are a tone freak like most guitarists. The AxeTrak® is hand made and assembled right here in the USA. Built the old fashion way, with pride and attention to detail, one unit at a time.

What is the AxeTrak®?

The AxeTrak® is a valuable production tool that allows the engineer, producer, or player a means to quietly capture the unique characteristics of their individual guitar sound. This compact electronic enclosure is capable of producing natural sounding rhythms and screaming lead guitar tones when plugged into a mixing board, soundcard, or recording console. Don't let the compact size fool you! The AxeTrak® is fuse-protected and will handle approximately 75 watts RMS of power. The AxeTrak® works perfectly with any 15 - 100 watt RMS guitar amplifier that can drive an 8 ohm load. However, it is not designed to handle high-power guitar amplifiers cranked at full volume like a power attenuator. Instructions for high-power use are clearly explained in the user manual and on our FAQ's page. The enclosure is made out of high quality, hardwood plywood for a warm tight sound, and is covered with heavy-duty, charcoal gray speaker carpet for non-suffocating sound dampening and long lasting durability. The heavy-duty 6" driver used in the AxeTrak® is custom made for our unique application. The sound is converted into an electrical signal with the use of a dynamic microphone cartridge, which has been carefully selected and modified exclusively for this device. This cartridge is securely mounted and its postition can be easily adjusted by turning a simple thumbscrew mounted on the top of the unit. When the screw is turned counterclockwise the microphone will be placed in the same position as the previous fixed microphone model. When the screw is turned clockwise the mic will be closer to the speaker and direct on axis. This feature gives the user incredible flexibility as to how they wish to record their guitar tracks. 

Now you truly can record the sound of your guitar rig 24/7 without disturbing your neighbors. No professional or home studio should ever be without this device.
