It's finally happening!
Can't wait to get my hands on this thing and see what it does for myself. I've already learned a lot here on the forums, and I've even saved some of y'alls presets that sounded like they might be interesting. I'll report back when it arrives
I think just like two months, not terrible! And it kinda worked out for me financiallyCongrats! How long were you on the wait list?
I've been geeking out watching videos, reading the manual and firmware release notes, and all signs point to awesomenessNo need to be so excited...it is only the best pedal board out there.

I have a Helix as well. I will keep both.Congratulations! I just got mine a few minutes ago. I am also getting a Helix. I am only keeping one but am excited to demo both!
Helix is here as well now. First thing is AX8 getting it setup and comparing it to my analog rig.I have a Helix as well. I will keep both.
I feel ya about the questions. I have a ton too, but I'm learning little by little as I just play around with AX8-Edit. Next time I get paid I'm gonna get a Dunlop Volume (x) Mini as an expression pedal and a Temple Audio Duo 24 to mount it all on! Should be a really clean little rigI just ordered one as well. It should be here Tuesday. I have used two other big name modeler/profilers. This is my first dive into Fractal Audio. I am excited as well. Especially after seeing Brit Floyd use AXFX live. I am waiting to order and Expression Pedal. I have a Mission Engineering Line 6 labeled expression pedal that I am not using. I want to see if it will work first. I am afraid it might be reverse wired. I do not know if the AX8 has polarity options for expression pedals. A lot of questions will be answered next week.

Mine is out for delivery. I am sitting by the door waiting.
I am retired. . It is liable to be here late after the holidays. UPS normally doesn't get here until mid afternoon on a good day.Hope you took the day off.
I have found the AX8 to be outstanding in sound and not too bad with UI. I was able to replicate my Egnater Pres with ease. FX's are great and I love the dials for the Amp section. I also got a Helix and I have to say I am really pleased with that as well. The UI and screen scribble scripts, additional I/O options as well as IR creating and out of the box ease of use as well as design is amazing. I made a decision over the weekend and kept the Helix. Though I did really like the AX8 compactness and sound but found the Helix more to my liking. However please do not use my opinion as a reason not to own a AX8! If I could afford both I would have both or if anything an AX FXII for the studio. Both are really great devices. The Fractal Forum and Support is the best out there from my reading. I think you will love your AX8.Helix is here as well now. First thing is AX8 getting it setup and comparing it to my analog rig.
