Bug? Lound popping noise from the reverb block changing presets with spillover

Recently noticed, that changing from one patch to another generates a loud noise in the reverb block with spillover. Patches attached, it is from switching from "Joseph (FenderPlexi)" to "acoustic". The pluck you hear is a string plucked muted, the reverb trail spills over but the actual sound...

We want Firmware 12

Lets face it, the 1st Gen is dead. This is a one man show and no one likes to allocate resources on a product not selling.

IEM usage: How to hook this up???

I use a Behringer (ouch) MX882 mixer splitter. It's an 8 channel mixer/splitter, dirt cheap. It's not high end but perfect for live use. Main input Axe-Fx stereo, 2 channels hard panned left and right splitted and sent to FOH. That't the Axe feed to FOH. I get a monitor feed from FOH and mix...

Using Axe FX With my Uberschall - couldnt find a clear answer.

Fisrt of all, some amps buzz with 4cable method some don't. That's hit and miss. You need to check it for yourselves. Running the amp with 4CM is great, although running the Axe into the amp's input can cause minor sound difference. It changes the attack of the notes and a little compression is...

Used Ultra/Standard prices to plummet ? I Dont think so

I really don't get this. Why flood the market with "obsolete" gear, even no one ever heard the new one? As with any new product, new users should expect issues, until Axe II has a bug free firmware. I would expect 6-12 months to track down all issues. It will have a lot smaller community in the...

Continued support and updates for Standard and Ultra

I'm sure it's not possible, but I would love the idea of a modular kernel Linux style. I really don't use a couple of effects and ampsims and most probably some other guy says those things are the best thing on earth after inventing scrambled eggs.

Cliff! Congrats on the new product, I wish you guys all the best. Dude, get a flak vest, you should expect a lot of frag from recent Ultra buyers. Your company is booming get a PR guy, don't loose existing customers by not having a proper plan and communication releasing a new product. You let a...

That's a standard on the picture. I guess the the new stuff is based on the ultra processor and current Ultra users will be able to upgrade to it. Standard users are fooked.

Iloks and alikes are cracked like peanuts. UAD is probably the only one not hacked yet, due the UAD card is a big dongle. The plugin code runs on the Sharc CPU on the card. In order to release a PCIE and firewire attached boxes I would estimate around 700$ for a PCIE card and 1000$ for a...

Mighty cool. So you can pull the strings to catapult the birds and compute ballistics the same time.

I just expressed my thoughts, that if it is not a "real" firmware update, meaning new parameters, amps, effects whatever, I'm uninterested. I'm not using FRFR monitoring, perfectly fine with a POD XT Live as a foot controller/backup option. Would I be interested in a floor version stripped down...

Honestly if it's not a "real" firmware update I'm completely uninterested. The last not "bug-fixing only" update was last June. 1 or 2 years before we got new firmwares with updates approx in each 3-4 months and we raved about how well we are treated. I know a lot of new products were released...

After Hacking the Fractal site it is the Fractal Audio Ultra Plus. It has an USB connector, quad core, 4 times of RAM, 8096 bit IRs supported, 50 User IR slots (re nameable) and the famous "Inital Crack" amp parameter is revealed to public. New Amp parameters: "Mojo", "Vintage Vibe", "Grith"...
