    Using External Controller For Modifiers

    Hello Fractal Folks, I'm trying to control parameters in the Axe Fx via a Livid controller, which is hooked up to Ableton. I tried using the Learn function on one of the external controllers in the Axe. It received the CC number, but when I assigned that controller to a parameter, nothing...

    Arpeggiator Sync Question

    I'm sure this has been asked/addressed, but I haven't found info specific to my question. Is it possible to sync the arpeggiator to Ableton, so that whenever you hit a note it will actually be in sync with the DAW? I know the tempo is sync'd, but I'm programming for a client and am thinking...

    giant metal crickets - harpy in the sun at SXSW

    hey folks, this is a little snippet from a show that i played at SXSW. it's a lo-fi video so not the best example of tone, but still an example of how i'm using the Axe-Fx within experimental, abstract electronic music (i do all kinds of looping, textural and highly warped things with the Axe...

    Giant Metal Crickets - all Axe-Fx (II and Ultra) experimental album

    Hey Fellow Fractal Folks, I haven't posted in some time because I've been working on my new album Incito, which is a collection of improvised-then sculpted compositions (centered around heavily warped and treated guitar). Some parts were done on my Axe II and some on my old Ultra. All of the...

    elephant in the room! - big stomper using the axe for synth, ambient and loops

    hey folks, this is my band's new track. it is an eight and a half minute journey documenting the real life urban experiences of one disoriented pachyderm. i know this won't be for everyone here, but what's happening is that i made a patch on an ipad synth called nave (amazing synth btw). i...

    MFC (1st gen) Issue - Timeout

    hello, my MFC keeps timing out. either i get a blank screen or the timeout message. expression pedals stop working and even power down/up doesn't always solve the problem. i've tried a different midi cable but continue to have the problem. has anyone else experienced this? thanks! adam

    jellyfish

    hey fractal peep's, here's a new release by my band. all guitars (and most "synth" sounds) are axe ultra and axe II. we haven't put this up on soundcloud yet, so i'm not sure if there's a better way to embed this, BUT if you click on the link, it'll take you directly to the track...

    hey fractal peep's, i just wanted to drop a quick note regarding my experience with the CLR. UPS brought a thrashed box to my door last week. i worked for UPS many years ago, and sadly, this is not a surprise. i thought i had an issue with my LED's and emailed Tom, who called me in a...

    mfc is switching slowly

    hello all, my mfc has been switching rather slowly. it seems like its only on certain patches. i've tried all the suggestions, like resetting, making sure the axe-fx II is on channel one, making sure that total sync is off, etc., but i'm still having this problem. i'm wondering whether...

    grainy, dynamic and odd

    this is from a track in progress. the track elements (which aren't present in this post) make more musical sense of this (at least in my head) :) all these sounds were done with one patch in one pass. the axe-fx is so dynamic that with stuff like this, so much depends on where the note is...
