Presenting... The Axe-Fx III

Does the space for 512 presets include factory banks or are those all user banks?

Does the FC-6/FC-12 have the same limitations of the MFC where it can only access the first 384 presets?
 
@FractalAudio - Hey Cliff. What is the "FIR Accelerator" mentioned in the AX8 performance number on the CPU graph and does that refer to a stock AX8? Congrats on the launch!
 
Here is an example of amp channel switching. I switch back and forth several times between two channels, one less distorted and one more distorted.

I think that´s fast enough for playing live - and much better than the Axe II x/y switching. It will be fast enough for playing rhythm with solofills .Usually it´s better to switch to a solosound with neutral filter and an drive additional in a another scene without gabs.
 
One thing that would be cool would be the ability to use 3 or 4 amp blocks.
Useful in a band with one bass and 2 guitars by example or mixing amp blocks for reamping etc...
the more ampblocks are there in Axe III, the less gear will Fractal sell............We also do this in our band - two guitars through on Axe II MK II - works great, but a lot of programming.
 
Really cant wait for the III now!
I would really like to see the manual for this embedded into axe edit.
So when you hover over a dial or parameter it shows the corresponding part of the manual in a "pop up" window.
Would be really useful for the steep learning curve.. Especially if the presets from the II are not forward compatible.
