    Out of the loop for a long time...any plans for Fractal software sim like Helix Native?

    I haven't been around these parts for quite some time. With the release of the Axe 3, I wondered whether there has been any talk of an AxeFX software solution. I don't really need hardware these days as anything I'd work on is at home on my PC so I don't see myself upgrading to a new unit but...

    Axe Fx for my mac

    My favorites right now are Thermionik for metal tones, S-Gear for just about everything else and Overloud TH3 has some winners in there too. I'd jump ship from all of those to a Fractal solution in a moment though. :)

    Axe PC

    I don't think we "deserve" anything...I do think it's a bit odd from a business perspective. Owners of the Axe already have the sounds. The VST would be a convenience. But if I have to use the unit as a security dongle then all that convenience is gone. I think this again goes back to the...

    No sound from front input...

    I found the problem...there was a loose wire inside the unit. Presumably from the shipping trip I'd guess. Where the "input" wire connects to the mainboard was loose. It just clipped back on but I was a little disheartened at how easily it popped off again. It's not unthinkable that a bouncy...

    No sound from front input...

    I've actually tried multiple cables and my main cables are lava cable so they are pretty high quality...it is interesting that my front jack does not seem to "click" like the rear one does. I wonder if it could have been over/under tightened during repair? I don't suppose that's anything I...

    No sound from front input...

    I've had my Ultra for about a year now. Previously I've used the front input with no prob but for many months I've been plugging my guitar exclusively into the rear input. A few months back I had to send my unit back to Fractal for a repair. Since receiving the unit back I hooked it back up the...

    Thoughts on passive FRFR speakers?

    Thoughts on passive FRFR speakers?

    So I see the much loved Verve FBT series is also available in the passive variety. I currently have a QSC GX3 power amp and was wondering if this pairing would work decently or would I be better served just getting an all in one powered speaker like the QSC k10 or the powered version of the...

    AC30 to be to JMI standards?

    As a U2 fan I've looked into his tone a bit and I believe he takes either 4 or 8 vox amps on tour and uses a switcher to move between all of them. In other words, there isn't one "U2 tone". I've also read that he attributes a lot of his tone to his speakers and the loud volume he runs his amps...
