    FC-12 behaving like a Bradshaw controller

    I recently upgraded from the XL+/RJM controller to the 3 with the FC-12. The 3 is great... but the FC-12! This thing is just as powerful! I've spent the first couple weeks deciding how to configure it. Tried a few different ways, each with their pros and cons. I found myself wishing it behaved...

    Axe-Fx in amp loop - Use as preamp OR FX only?

    Hey guys, can someone help me determine if this is possible? I want to use the AxeFX in the effects loop of a dirty single channel amp, for post-FX only. Then, with perhaps an A/B/(Y?) box, I want to use the AxeFX as a preamp, with a clean amp model (and effects). I know either can be easily...

    Help with preset - Direct to PA, cab, FX

    Hey guys! I know we've got some killer preset makers here, so I could use a little help with mine. I pretty much run 1 preset using 2 amps, one at a time. My preset and gain staging have been dialed in for recording, but now im hitting the stage. I'll be going to a power amp and speaker cab...

    2 Amps, 1 Preset - fastest way to switch

    Ive played with a couple things in the past, but I wasn't positive what was still active or not. I checked Controllers and didn't see anything. Ive actually tried that in the past. Didn't stick with it. Thanks for the suggestions though. Got it, you have no lag. I appreciate your help. Id...

    2 Amps, 1 Preset - fastest way to switch

    Think of a good channel switching amp. Clean, dirty. You're in a rock band doing the quiet verses/loud choruses thing. Maybe strumming or picking a clean part in the verse, then right on the 1 of the chorus you hit the dirty. Its instantaneous. You don't even think about it. With the AxeFX...

    2 Amps, 1 Preset - fastest way to switch

    Not interested in "slowly morphing" between amp sounds, I'm looking for as close to instantaneous switching as possible. This sounds interesting. So both amps would be active, going into a Mixer block, and I would bypass a mixer channel per scene? You're thinking this is faster than Amp...

    2 Amps, 1 Preset - fastest way to switch

    I did a search, seems like most switching talk on here is related to X/Y states. I use 1 preset with 2 amps in parallel, first 4 scenes are clean (dirty amp bypassed) and last 4 scenes are dirty (clean amp bypassed). Prepping for shows next year and the lag between clean/dirty switching is too...

    Amps Not G3’d Yet

    lol guys don't take "I'm bummed" as "I'm unhappy with my Axe" as that is definitely not the case. Just disappointed that my fave go-to amps haven't been done yet, thats all. I will continue to play it and make records with it. Carry on.

    Axe-Fx II Firmware 20.00 Public Beta

    I have an Apollo Duo and I'm interested in this setup. However, if we are talking a digital connection from the Axe to the cpu/interface, aren't you locked at 48k?

    Axe-Fx into UA Apollo Twin=Mind Blown

    What high end recording mic/line preamp to pair with Axe FX II

    I just finished guitars and bass on a record, where I went Analog Out into a pair of Brent Averill 312A mic pres, simply for the added color, and it sounds great. I think of the Analog outs as the mics themselves, so in a "normal" situation those would run into preamps that would "color" the...

    Clark Kent's TEH Dollar Sound IR's

    The Factory 41 Redwires IR has been my go-to IR for a long while now… but your TEH Beyerdynamic M201 B1.syx has taken over! Just a couple of minor EQ tweaks to the mids, and it sounds killer. Ive been trying lots of others and these are some of the best I've heard, great job.

    LMAO! real Roadster vs. Fryette D60 M

    The attack is a bit different on the Fryette, more pronounced. I prefer it. But yes the overall tone is nearly identical. The Fryette has been my go-to amp model in the AxeFX for any crunch stuff for years now.

    Yes, that is a "greater than" symbol. I took my Ultra and SLA-2 down to the Carvin store today to compare it to the DCM200L, the 4lb power amp. I REALLY wanted to like the DCM200L as its about 15lbs lighter than the SLA-2. Ive got a fly date coming up and the Carvin would be much lighter/easier...
