John Petrucci is not using the AxeFx for live or any other musical application.

As gear was pared down for some international touring in 2010, John made the switch to the new Axe FX unit by Fractal and just two Mark V heads. The simpler set up was holding up well so the decision was made to continue with it for the North American Iron Maiden tour. All of the channel switching selections are made with one head that is fed into the the Axe FX by the FX send of the Mark V. The signal is then split to stereo with the Axe FX and returned back into the main head’s FX return and the other Mark V’s FX return. This routes all tones to the same power section of the second Mark V so you have a true stereo image.

Well, I guess some people just like how things like this sound.
