    Fractal Axe-Fx II and The Edge

    Hello all,

    Wanted to share some cool news with you... We recently spent two weeks in a Dublin studio with The Edge, exploring the Axe-Fx II. Together we dialed in sounds -- amps, cabs, delays, and more -- working both from U2's original recordings and Edge's live rig, also taking the time for some totally new creations.

    Edge is not only a great musician, but a true virtuoso when it comes to using technology as a creative tool. This made for a really intense and enjoyable time, and the results were exciting and inspiring, especially as U2 prepare to begin work early next year on some new material.

    It was a unique opportunity and an incredible experience, and we at Fractal Audio look forward to how the story might continue...

    Matt, what I'd have given to have been a fly on the wall during that time.

    How are you handling the starstruck feelings these days? Seems like the musician profiles you're hanging out with are going up and up and up. Any hesitation when you have to pick up a guitar in front of these guys and gals?
