    Mk 2 to Mk 3 backup restore

    Thanks for sharing that. I opened up my mk 2 backup in the MFC edit and then saved it as a mk 3. Then sent that to the MFC and it worked perfectly!! Very cool program . Thanks again I’m back in business.

    Mk 2 to Mk 3 backup restore

    So before selling my Mfc 101 Mk 2 threeyears ago I backed it up. Now I purchased a Mfc 102 Mk 3 and fractal bot won’t let me restore the Mk 2 backup to the Mk 3 Mfc 101. It took me forever to get the MFC Mk 2 the way I wanted it and now I totally forgot all I did in programming it. And it looks...

    AXIII without foot controller

    Thanks all for the responses. Sounds like I can get by for a bit without one so I’ll try it. If it’s too much a burden, I’ll bit the bullet and get one at another point in time. Appreciate all the input.

    AXIII without foot controller

    I’m almost ready to buy an AXIII. I’m not planning on playing out live with it, only plan to use it in my studio. Is it necessary to have a FC-12 or an FC-6 controller to use it just in the studio? Anyone have one without a foot controller? I do have Mission foot controllers I can use for...

    Considering AXII to AXIII

    Well when gigging I always had a backup rig just in case. Or kept one rig at practice and another one at home. But now I’m not gigging or plan on so maybe I can get by with just one rig.

    Considering AXII to AXIII

    Probably a stupid question but If you were me and owned 2 AXFX II’s and 2 MFC101’s, would you sell them all to buy one AXFXIII and a foot controller? Do you think it would be worth it?

    Frustrating Problem

    I have it at home now and It won’t do it. It’s the second time I brought it home and can’t get it to do that sound. So maybe you’re all right about the power supply at the church, I just never figured it would behave that way because of power. Thought power is either on or off. Didn’t consider...

    Frustrating Problem

    I am running left xlr out of the AX8 to the house and right AX8 xlr out to my powered monitor. And it affects both. I have no wah blocks in my presets.

    Frustrating Problem

    Had my Axe 8 for a few months and I love it. However, now I have an intermittent problem. I play in church every week and it keeps happening. I’m playing and the level drops down and the sound gets extremely thin. It doesn’t matter what preset I’m on. I switch presets and it doesn’t help...

    Floor monitor for AX8

    Yeh, it’s great how well the AX8 translates to these lower end or should I say lower priced monitors.

    Floor monitor for AX8

    I use one of these for my AX8 and it is just what I was looking for. Plenty of power, quick setup and easy. And pretty cheap.

    Sound gets thin

    Thanks for the quick reply. I was thinking that but guess I got lazy hoping the global would work. And to an extent it does but not exactly what I need. I set up my AX II the way you described many moons ago so I’ll give it a try with the AX8 too. Thanks
  17. jgparker59

    Sound gets thin

    I set up my AX8 with a Roland EV5 expression pedal controlling the volume using the global volume setup to control input volume, because I need to do swells and tails, etc. However, when I want to play say at half volume by lowering the pedal, the distortion and my sounds gets thin. Not...

    I just ordered my AX8 and who wouldn’t with such great pricing. I own two AXII’s and love the presets I have. Just want portability with the AX8. Anyways, what’s the best and easiest way to get the sounds/presets of my AX II to the AX8? Hate to go thru the start from scratch way. Thanks

    Matrix 1600FX and (2) FRFR 12 cabs

    Two reasons. One, I asked the same question to Matrix and they said that the 1600 has a bit more bottom thump, which it does. Also running (2) FRFR 12's, I wanted to have enough power to drive large venues that my band will be playing at soon. You know the quote, 'Too much power is never enough'.

    Matrix 1600FX and (2) FRFR 12 cabs

    You could do that of course. But you wouldn't get this kind of sound from a single PA speaker.
  27. jgparker59

    Matrix 1600FX and (2) FRFR 12 cabs

    Just upgraded my rig to this and I'm blown away. Got the thump back in my chest and love the fullness and richness of the tones. The delays sound so much more spacious. No regrets! Thank you Matrix for great products and support.

    Scenes vs stomp box

    Reduce CPU usage?

    I did not know that. Thank you for saving me $2500. I just deleted some blocks and brought the usage down. Now it works but like was said, had to compromise. Oh well. Thanks all for you help!!

    Reduce CPU usage?

    Ok thanks all! I never understood the need for an XL+ but do now.
  33. jgparker59

    Reduce CPU usage?

    Ok so I think I get it. If I have 300 presets with one block in them each, I'm ok. But if I have one preset with 12 blocks in it, I'm probable going to have CPU overage depending on the blocks used of course. Correct?
  34. jgparker59

    Reduce CPU usage?

    How do I reduce my CPU usage? I keep getting errors flashing. Is it patch specific or the whole unit? If I delete or take out all the blocks say in bank B, will that help? Thanks for any help.

    Uses for external pedal controller?

    Thanks for all the ideas and responses! What I did for now is assigned it to the filter block and use it as a lead boost cause the switch on the MFC is hard for my big feet to get on and off quickly. Pedal is much easier. I modded some of the parameters and it works real good.
  43. jgparker59

    Uses for external pedal controller?

    My other pedal is not hooked up since I got the Mission pedal which uses ext 1 and 2. It's a Roland Ev-5
  44. jgparker59

    Uses for external pedal controller?

    I have one pedal working the volume and wah wah. I'm in a classic rock cover band. What else can I use my other pedal to control? Can it select scene 1 then scene 2? Or what other good uses?

    Turns on with pitch 8va

    Thanks guys. the Int value was set to 0%. So i had to edit the modifier to source ext 4 which im not using and now that seems to work.
  46. jgparker59

    Turns on with pitch 8va

    Every time I turn my ax II on it starts with the pitch up an octave or 2. Been doing this for a long time. I just hit any preset on the MFC and it's fine the rest of the session. Just an annoyance. Any suggestions?

    Parallel effects

    So now that I got some of your attention could you please suggest how you would set up a preset with the following blocks: Comp,wah,drive,amp,gate,cab,volume,phase,flanger,chorus,tremolo,pitch,geq,delay,multi delay,and reverb. I put them in a straight line with a feedback send and a feedback...
  49. jgparker59

    Parallel effects

    I guess I'm just going to have to experiment some more. I have all my blocks in line and I swear it changes my tone. That's why I thought I should run them parallel and bypassed and engage them when needed.
  50. jgparker59

    Parallel effects

    Ok thanks guys. So is it advisable to put as many effects In parallel as you can when you have a lot in a patch?
  51. jgparker59

    Parallel effects

    Can someone please post a snapshot pic from axe edit of say an amp and cab and say 4 to 6 effect blocks like chorus etc. and put them in parallel versus in line. I'm not sure how that looks. Thanks!!

    Yes it is a laptop running windows 7
  60. jgparker59

    Jammit problem

    Trying to play Jammit thru USB thru the AXE FX II and it plays sharp. I think it's because Jammit requires 16 bit at 44K while the Axe is at 48K. Anyone else have this problem and get it resolved?

    Scene 1/2 toggle

    Tuner Question

    Global Blocks: restore

    So do you restore the system first or the preset(s) first? Or doesn't it matter? So from what you are saying is that global blocks are backed up by the Bot and can be restored?
  76. jgparker59

    Question on the Bot backup

    When you back up a preset or a bank with the Bot, does it also back up the modifiers? Like source extrn 1, or 2 etc.? And also does it back up global blocks? And will it restore the modifiers and global blocks? Thanks for any info!
