    REVISED - Cliff's Factory Preset Bank A - Axe-Fx II - Quantum 8.01

    Did a firmware upgrade, system reset, and loaded this. I haven't been playing a lot recently, but after loading this particular bank - I'm not sure what much has changed? More of a maintenance/cleanup update, perhaps? :)

    Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 2.00 Firmware Release

    I've upgraded to Q2.0, and a large majority of the factory presets are clipping, and output being crushed. I've never experienced this in a firmware upgrade, always seems be 'other' people - now it's hit me! What's the best course of action to remedy this?

    Why can't I get headphones to sound good?

    You need a set of audio technica ATH M50 cans. By far the best bang for buck (~$100 USD). These studio/mix cans easily thwart options even up to the $1000 mark. No contest. The m50x range has detachable cables, whilst the m50s model has a coiled cable. Or your standard m50 model is just a...

    "ATLAS" - my new happy instrumental prog metal single!

    Very nice track Mr Plini! Gotta get it out there though: for me, my favourites are definitely Heart, Selenium Forest (wow) and Cloudburst (just awesome groovy track). Hope to see more of those types from you very soon. Cheers, bc.

    Parameter Elimination

    I'm very confident with the controls now, after much time spent tweaking (and less playing unfortunately haha). "Hiding" those is probably how I'd implement such a thing (and tabs if required).

    Parameter Elimination

    I feel as if the AxeFX should have a "normal" mode and "advanced" mode that is user selectable. I remember feeling quite overwhelmed when picking up my Ultra, and given my limited exposure to real amps. All those knobs; much confusion! Normal to mimic the controls found on real amps, with...

    Axe FX II: Steven Wilson rhythm tone (Progressive rock)

    Try and aim for "In Absentia" rock tone, done with real amps I believe.

    CLOUDBURST" - instrumental prog metal with the RECTO RED (Guthrie, Karnivool fans)

    Excellent work as per usual Mr Plini! I've listened to a lot of your other stuff and spin it daily; what exactly are you utilising in terms of: - Drums (real and electronic) - Bass - Orchestral - Synth/string/piano/etc... Cheers!

    Chef's Grace

    Thought I'd chip in here, if you haven't already heard this version of Dream Brother, you might like to take a look: TesseracT - Dream Brother - YouTube Done by the TesseracT guys, with Elliot Coleman on vocals. One of their coolest acoustic efforts to date!

    My first Axe II recording :)

    No probs Keshav. Cant wait to see what Dan pumps out for this one! It still boggles my mind how quickly you've become successful. I've heard a few snippets of some new stuff here and there, and it all sounds exciting! I'll be honest though, that album is seriously in my top 3 of all time, and...

    My first Axe II recording :)

    Can't wait for your new Skyharbor album to drop, Mr Hydrodjent :P Seriously, one of my favourite albums of all time! I remember asking about it on the sneap forum a few years ago, haha. Delivered wayyyy above and beyond expectation :)

    First gig with v10 / Recto content

    Rectos are fizz central, that's what makes them a recto (I own one). Just listen to any early Rammstein album like Herzeleid, classic recto right there.

    NEW DAW

    I've used repear, logic, protools, cubase and studio one. For an intermediate user, studio one wins hands down for ease of use. Reaper is dead ugly and unintuitive, logic lacks that true apple sheen, protools more of a tracking daw, cubase is OK but S1 is my preference. Ultimately up to you, I...

    glassy clean ambient patch, where to start?

    I've answered this before, search posts with my name. Essentially, it's a clean amp sim without a cabinet block, reverb, delay and presence/treble/brightness pushed upward.
