    How many are using external loopers w/ Fractal?

    Anybody using a Boss RC600? I just purchased one to record ideas for songs and loop them through my axefx III. I have my Adam A7s which come right out of the axefx output 1. Just trying to figure out the best way I should set this up at the end of my preset chain so I have stereo input from...

    New Geddy Lee music?

    I guess he wrote that about Neil losing his daughter and wife in the span of a year and didn't want to put it on the record cause he didn't feel comfortable on how it might make Neil feel. https://www.msn.com/en-us/music/news/geddy-lee-releases-demo-song-about-neil-peart-family-tragedy/ar-AA1l5Jip

    Van Halen 90's Balance Tone

    Nice job! Baluchitherium was one of my fav songs off that album - maybe because it was a borrowed riff from Trevor Rabin's song Eyes of Love from his Can't Look Away solo album which was a great album in itself.

    Yet another Cliffs of Dover, live in 2020, but holy holy holy

    Big fan of Eric but I have to say I was a little un-impressed with this video when he actually starts playing the song. Sounds like he is rushing through it and always ahead of the groove that the band is playing.

    Fremen presets - V 10.02
