    Audio clip after long verb/delays..looking for suggestions

    Lead tone clips maybe 1db as far as going in the red a little....nothing wrong with that. The big reverbs 'bloom' and end up clipping the output...like digital clipping. too much output.

    Audio clip after long verb/delays..looking for suggestions

    Actually....curious if people put an envelope on the 'level' of the reverb...and have it turn down if the volume gets over 100%...or something like that?? surely there's a way to contain it while keeping it musical/dynamic

    Audio clip after long verb/delays..looking for suggestions

    That's what I figured. Just didn't want to limit the verb from being as present before it starts becoming louder. I haven't tried the compressor after the verbs....was hoping the verb itself had a way to limit this. No worries. Thanks for the input!

    Audio clip after long verb/delays..looking for suggestions

    Long time user...but never found a happy balance on this. I'm running verbs and delays in parallel...now using the new killdry function. I have my amps and drives set where when I'm at my loudest..I'm just at unity gain on the output meters. Once I use a delay or verb for huge ambient...

    Wish Tempos saved per song

    Would be HUGE to save the tempo per song rather than per preset. For those of us that use 1 preset setup for most songs....it would keep us from having to save so many presets just to get a different tempo. Basically this would be a per song override of the tempo saved in the preset?

    Gapless Switching on AXE FX III

    Does anyone know if it will allow for spillover between channels? This is the biggest thing I have to work around and I can manage with scene controllers...but i can only use 1 reverb type. Would like to switch reverb types and have spillover continue.

    Are we still limited to setting tempo per preset...and then set presets per song? I use the same preset for most all songs...I only need the tempo to change...so I duplicate presets only to adjust tempos. Would be great if the tempo could be adjusted to 'global' and give us the ability to...

    FM3 switching other devices

    Hey all…I’m sure the answer is no…but wanted to double check before buying something else. Can I route 2 switches on the fm3/fm9 to control something else?
