    Axe-Edit 3.14.5

    No other issues that I can observe with the MAC. In fact I had upgraded the hardware to 16Gb/1TB SSD (from 4Gb/1Tb HDD) and reinstalled the OS and drivers recently thinking that is to blame for the slowness factor. But at the time, the MAC was generally slow. So reinstall drivers and OS - has...

    AMP MASTER VOLUME vs. OUTPUT VOLUME

    Depends on the amp. I got good results with MV cranked on the Plexi treble, which is my go-to amp. In some other cases, cranking the MV produced less than optimal results, like you are experiencing.

    What is the best way to hear the differences in amps?

    Check this: ...and other videos in this series It seems that the cab is what gives the amp its sound. The contribution of the amps appears less (if any) in this regard. I was hoping this to not be the case though, there's more magic in it if each amp sounded very different though the same cab

    The Secret Weapon: Transformer Match

    I've been experimenting with this since a while. I usually turn the transformer match down slightly for a more open sound, add a good OD in front of the amp, add sag slightly, pair with a good sounding cab, add delay to taste, garnish with reverb and serve licks steaming hot: it sounds a and...

    Question relating to upgrade of MFC101

    Is it OK to power up the MFC101 using the ethernet cable from the AxeII, while using a USB-MIDI convertor to transfer the firmware, rather than using the MFC itself with MIDI thru setting? Not sure if this is already covered, so checking.. Thanks!

    Question regarding WAH and additional pedals

    Hi Chris, Thanks for your reply:) It's possible to get the Axe close, of course. I was trying to understand if any of the MFC ports can become routing points for these things, mapping out the functionality of ports behind the Axe for FxSend and return as this would cut out all extra cabling.
