If I am setting it up mono, on the back of the Axe-fx there is the section Output 1 which has left and right, which one do I go out of, and which input do I go into on the back of the Carvin?
The industry standard is that mono=left. On most stereo devices, if you only want to run mono you plug out of the left channel, unless it says otherwise. I don't think the Axe is any different, I use the left output with no issues so even if the right channel is fine too you might aswell make a habit out of using the left output.
Here you can listen to some Axe FX clips from an upcoming album with the band Scarpoint.

Btw does anyone know if the Axe-Fx works with the Mbox 2? Would I be able to connect it via S/PDIF? Or would I have to connect it via it's XLR outputs?
I would recommend the SPDIF. Less DA/AD conversion.
how about the s/pdif on an external sound card though? i have an M-Audio firewire sound card, and it has two of those big s/pdif inputs/outputs (not the mini-jack ones on computers). my pod x3l has s/pdif just like it.
is this crap in the same way, or is he talking about the mini-jack computer ones? (i´m guessing he is, as i´ve had a Creative sound card in my pc that had an s/pdif digital input that was just another mini-jack, and not a proper plug)
So is there an advantage to using XLR over the 1/4" outs?

If you are running mono go to I/O and Select L+R Sum instead of Stereo on Output 1. It adds the left and right sides together and sums them out to each output.
My audio interface at the moment is a Line 6 Pod Studio UX2, on the back it has s/pdif. Would I be able to plug my Axe Fx in there, or do I need to purchase something else?
No clue but stay tuned, I'll tell you when my axe fx arrives, as I have an UX8 interface I'll try using the SPDIF for midi if it can save me having to buy another interface. The thing should be there in two or three days tops, tracker still shows it in germany though.
