    Axe-Fx III Firmware 25.00 Public Beta (Cygnus X-3)

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 25.00 Public Beta (Cygnus X-3)

    "Shame and ridicule..." LOVE it ! Hahahaha ! ( and he's talking about the major core updates, not just the small incremental updates ) But seriously, the feel is much more immediate, spongier, and my HBE reacts the way a cranked amp would, with palm mutes and pinched harmonics... It is most...

    dialing in stage sound via IEMs... Possible?

    Always dial them in on the best/flattest set of studio monitors you can afford, as long you are running the outputs direct to the console... the sounds will translate. Usually the problem with IEM's that aren't molded to your ear, is that if you are not using isolation eartips, the low end...

    IRs that give you that thump in your chest

    Ubercab IR's... probably the cab with the most low end... or Mesa cabs, or those with greenbacks... IR's captured with a 121 will probably have the most low end... If it's still not enough low end, buy a sub for your monitoring situation... It should be fine for jammin at home alone, but will...

    Wireless guitar system suggestions

    It sounds good. I've only used it straight into my AX8, and now my AxeFX III. It uses digital transmission, so no weird companding stuff going on. For $139 it's pretty awesome... batteries are internal and rechargeable, so no batteries to buy, and last at least 4 hours on a full charge.

    It's always a good idea to check your presets in mono, to make sure that they translate correctly.
