Hi, I'm new to recording direct with the Axe-Fx II Ultra and I'm getting terrible sounds for harmony-doubled guitars. They sound like a muddled harmonizer pedal. Here is a sample of two guitars panned 90/10 playing harmony parts:

I'm running my guitar straight into the Axe-FX II Ultra, which goes directly to a macbook pro via USB. My DAW is Reaper (I've also tried Cubase, but same problem). I've played around with my levels on the Axe-FX - no help.
I realize my tone and playing are not going to win any awards, but I've recorded parts like this in a studio (and at home) using a cab and mic and they didn't sound anything like this at all. What am I missing here?
Thanks.
