    Running into the fx return on a Soldano

    I've had great results running into the effects on a variety of amps with my ax8 but I might have some gigs playing into a soldano slo. I know they are great amps on their own but has anyone run an ax8 into one. As I understand it the positon if the loop in the circuit causes issues for...

    default/landing scene?

    Sorry if I'm asking something obvious but is there a way to set a preset to load a different scene when first selected? e.g. I have 4 scenes but would like scene 3 to be the first one that loads rather than always starting with scene 1

    Second guitar input?

    Apologies if this is a daft question. Is there a way to get a second guitar into the ax8 so when I switch presets I could switch between acoustic and electric guitar. It would make quick changes a lot easier and save having to mute guitars while changing sounds and guitar if it’s possible.

    Output to FOH and Monitor

    There's probably a simple answer to this but I've just started giggling with a friedman asm frfr cab - can I run the two outputs from the ax8 and have separate volume controls without adding an fx loop block to every preset?

    output routing - FOH and an onstage amp

    So I've been playing around with different ways to run the ax8. I have done quite a few gigs with the cab block turned off in global settings and a mic on the amp into a ender twin or evh 5153 - either 4cm using evh preamp or amp models from the ax8. Sounds fine although maybe a little...

    tweaking the drive tones

    I've just been adjusting some patches after a rehearsal last night. I'm mainly using the bbe pre for low/mid gain and the ruckus for higher gain. Going to the eq page on each drive block and raising the high cut to around 3.5K and dropping the low cut to around 200Hz. It opened up...

    tap tempo button is changing banks?

    Apologies for asking a silly question, but I can't find a way to get this to work.. I've put the fx8 into sticky presets, but that seems to be disabling the tap tempo button, when I press it, it brings up a bank change screen. I can see how that would be useful but I'd rather have the 8...

    fx8 led's

    Couple of quick questions about the led's on the fx8 I'm curious about... They look pretty bright - how visible are you finding them onstage? Anyone used one outside in daylight? With 3 led's per switch are you finding it easy to see which scene or preset you're using onstage? Every...

    FX8 vs AFX? Anyone own both or had to choose?

    SO my invitation to buy an fx8 is due any day, and unless I'm very wrong the ax8 won't be in the UK for a while so it occurred to me that I could sell my usual gigging amp (evh 50) and buy a used afx xl and a power amp and midi board for around the same price. If I get the fx8, I can pair it...

    FX8 vs axefx 1 or 2 comparing effect quality etc

    Just curious, if I understand correctly a lot of the features on the axe 2 are irrelevant if you are just talking about effects so if you ignore the obvious compact floorboard advantage of the fx8, how does it compare to the rack units in terms of effects quality and features?

    footswitches - when you press or release?

    Before I get my fx8 (on the waiting list at the moment), could someone who is using one already comment on how the switches operate please. If I'm in preset mode, does it switch patches when I press or when I release? As I understand it, it's designed to work when you lift off the...
