Hello, I've been looking for a solution to this for years, I hope somebody can help me.
I need to use precise tremolo on my guitar. I have midi signals from my DAW into the Axe FX III, and the drummer plays to a premade click track also running from my DAW. I press play on my DAW and all my effects are automated, drummer plays in sync, sound effects are running through the pa, everything is working as expected except whenever the tremolo effect gets engaged, the start and stop (phase) of the tremolo is completely random. I think the tremolo just keeps going behind the scenes and is only audible when it gets switched on, but I need the beginning of the tremolo phase to always start whenever it gets switched on so that it is consistent and exactly the same every time.
I haven't extensively tested this, but I suspect that other phase based effects like flanger, chorus, or phaser are working in a similar way.
I used to be able to solve this issue on my HX Stomp years ago, where hitting one of the stomp switches would reset the phase of the effect, so I would just set the midi to engage and reset the phase at the same time.
I can't get this to work on the Axe FX III no matter what I do. I've looked at many different forum posts and Youtube videos but nothing seems to work. I don't need to control the speed of the tremolo by hitting my string, that doesn't apply to my scenario. Using a midi clock has no effect. I just need the phase to be in the same position whenever it gets engaged so I don't have random tremolo.
I'm hoping somebody can help me!
