    FM9 using I/O as FX loops Q

    Thanks for the input. I'll have to get back on a diagram because I actually didn't finish it because I ran into this snag about not being able to route where I wanted. The other thing is that I'm still trying to work out the external switchers. The one that would go in front is a Morning Star...

    It's going take me a bit to wrap my head around your response. In The meantime I've elaborated a little more about what my intentions are in my reply to Elvis above.

    FM9 using I/O as FX loops Q

    Thanks Elvis! Damn.. And here I thought I could uses each I/O jack independently and route any input to any output or anything, and process everything individually, but it's not possible, even in a digital device. This potentially hoses my whole operation. I was going to sell my MIDI foot...

    FM9 using I/O as FX loops Q

    I've been off the Fractal boat for a while and thinking of getting back on, but I've had a little difficulty finding the info that I'm looking for, which is critical to my setup. My setup is kind of complicated and would require heavy use of the I/O for FX loop duties that are too complicated...

    Let's see those FM9 rigs!

    I'm loving this and it's probably what I'll end up with. I just wish they had a 28"+" (28x16). For 28", they only have a 28x14, which doesn't give a good row above the FM9. Since the 24+ (24x16) won't go carry-on either, might as well get the extra real estate. I suppose 24x16 can go checked...

    Can Cab-Lab export to a standard IR format like WAV?

    I have a certain IR that I no longer have the original files for, but need to use it with another software. Is it possible to export an AxeFx IR to a standard impulse response format like .WAV? How lossless is the conversion? Thanks!

    Guitar Cab Guy Going FRFR...opinions on Atomic CLR NEO, Mission Gemini 1X12...others?

    As far as the sound, I'm sure the XiTone's sound great.. maybe even better that the Atomic to some, but as far as I've gathered, the Atomic CLR is flat as a board (at least closer to a studio monitoring sutuation) and that's what I'm looking for. Some have even claimed using them as studio...

    Sorry to ressurect but I have questions relating to a post in this thread specifically.. Does anyone know if the finish on the Atomics has been improved? I've owned many speakers in my time and never experienced something that seems as fragile as the finish on the Atomic CLR's. I mean... you...

    Fixed 48k Sample Rate Impedes Recording Studio Integrations

    Every single day i uave prayed for an AxeFXIII to have selectable sample rates. Maybe even an SRC deall lile the Apollo ĺbut thata pushing it). It has been SOOOOO frustrating dealing with 48k it's ridiculous. I want to stay in digital land AMAP and use the AxeFx as a sound card replacement...

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    For me, it isn't a brain thing at all. Even if it's someone else in the room at the same time, I can still hear the natural guitar. As soon as the person is playing in another room with headphones, the live and the recorded tones are identical. As soon as they step back into the room, it's off...

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    When you set your recorded tones, do you do it while playing the guitar and just record that, or do you record and the reamp, adjusting the patches then? I'm just curious. At least with the KRK's, I sometimes have difficulty with creating patches when a guitar is vibrating against my body or...

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    I'm starting to think Adam. It was my original pick, without knowing about the Neumanns. Also, Joey Sturgis uses them in his home studio and the A77X in a bigger studio. (Who knows what is and isn't an endorsement plant these days though...) Also, they're more popular. That could or couldn't...

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    If you are talking about the video examples where they make record the A7X, KH120, M030, and compare them to the source track, I don't know whether to trust that video or not. On one speaker system I pick the Adams as the closest to the source. On the other, the Genelecs. That also doesn't...

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    Quested Sr8's seem to be double the price. Frankly, I'm looking for something somewhat standard. I'd love some Opals, but they are also more expensive, difficult to find at the moment, and there's a rumored update to the design. The thing about the "harshness" of the Adams is... some people...

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    Sounds cool, but I dunno. Maybe too bulky for me and still doesn't seem dedicated. As an add on, sounds interesting to me... Anyhow, I haven't heard of that solution until now.

    Adam A7X vs Neumann kh120

    I'm sure either monitor is going to be a massive step up from the krks. I find that the KRK's just smear the sound too much. Listening to music, they don't sound all that bad, especially with the sub, they kick. But I've already tried them in several different scenarios and just seem not to gel...

    I was wondering if anyone's personally tried these... hopefully both. I'll be using the monitors for making tones and mixing. I use both the AxeFx II and Kemper.

    Dialing in Direct Tones in Mono w/ One Speaker Method - stereo vs mono 1or2 speakers

    I understand ehat you're saying, but I would wager over 90% of people dialing in sim amps, whether hardware or software, aren't doing it in a professionally treated recording studio with a perfect monitoring setup. Some sort of phasing will also always exist when the sound is coming from two...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    The psycho-acoustic effect may actually be the issue I am experiencing... I just had my girl go into another room with the door shut and strum a few open strums ending with palm mutes... I listened to her play live and the played back the 64wav source files through VLC at 100% volume and it...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    Interesting. Something must be afoot. I see a lot of guys still use another audio interface to record despite having an Axe fx II with USB, but I thought that was mainly to work in different sampling rates to suit their preferences/whatever their projects were set to or something. Whatever...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    In the Axe Fx, I have everything panned to the center (cabs, plus there are no additional FX after the cab block), so it's gonna sound mono. I recorded it to a stereo track in Cubase because that's what I hear through the monitors... Even setting the cabs to mono, the output of the Axe Fx II is...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    I'm not sure how I'd be collapsing it :/ I'm recording stereo with the default track settings and two waveforms show up. In the Axe Fx itself, I also have the cabs panned to the center. Tried 0db pan law in Cubase settings too. I also noticed that when I record stereo with stereo Delays...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    I've had this issue with other audio sources, and I'm not sure I ever really fixed it 100%, but I did notice that when I opened up the audio files directly from the project folder, the sound was a little better... but I think that may be mostly due to how I had panning laws set up in cubase...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    I have considered this.. I guess I'll even try with a pillow between me and the guitar... possibly my girl strumming in another room too lol.

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    To add, to fix this (kind of), I can add post eg boosting the hish and the lows... even dipping a little here and there and it sounds better, but still not as good as it has some 2Difying effect and the scratchy sound persists.

    Yep. All through USB.. no additional anything. I'm at with right now so I cant check if the I/O input is set to USB, but I've even done a system settings reset. However, if I had it set up that way, wouldn't it run back through the amp and cabs etc all over again? I don't think that's the...

    Axe Fx II Sound Quality Loss When Recording Via USB ???

    This is driving me nuts, but basically, when I try to record via USB into my Cubase 7 DAW, everything sounds great going in, until I hit playback. Basically, direct monitoring on the Axe Fx 2 sounds great, but then playback from Cubase sounds like a low-fi version of what I originally played...

    Anyone using speaker drive or motor drive since about 6.0?

    I use it similarly with high gain on some patches. For me, it helps thin out the low mids a little bit and decrease boominess in a way that EQ doesn't. We all love thick sounds, but when things are too thick in the low-mid rumble department, this helps tame that and gently smooth the highs...

    Octave Pedal Effect From Pitch Block?

    I know this is an old thread but.. I love me some octaver so.. At any rate, the boss pedal isn't a pitch shifter. It's a synth with filters and an envelope filter (for each of the 2 octaves). Pitch shifting won't sound the same. Anyone have any luck?
