    Dino Cazares playing Fractal now?

    Doesn't matter what he was using as you can barely hear the guitar whatsoever in that video.

    DL Whisky Show

    AXE FX 3 and some Atomic CLR's and you can't go wrong. Saw them in Detroit at Comerica Park during the Summer Tour and hands down Def Leppard's tone, especially the guitar tones blew away the rest of the band's guitar tone in the lineup that night. Night and day compared to the other bands...

    IV anywhere on the horizon?

    I just love all this talk about when a new unit from Fractal is going to come out. Most that keep asking this question are the ones that buy it and sell it after a few weeks because they still do not know how to dial it in and think a new one will have some sort of AI that will just come up...

    Matrix Amp and Matrix Cabs or 2 Laney LFR 212’s?

    Try to get a powered Atomic CLR or a pair of them. I have tried a ton of FRFR solutions and the Atomic CLR's were a game changer for me when it came to using FRFR's and Impulse Responses. Immediately sold off all my real 412 cabinets, power amps, etc. Best tone I have had hands down.

    Amp models that surprised you

    I would have to say the EVH Stealth amps. Had a real EVH Stealth 100s and absolutely hated it. Too much gain on an amp that to a point was almost unusable and was too compressed. The EVH Stealth amp blue and red amp sims have been my main distorted tones since the firmware update dropped...

    Who else never really uses the drive block(s)?

    I use the input block on the amp like a mid-boost. Bring it down to 649-720 and boost the gain and maybe lower the input bass a little and acts like a tube screamer without coloring your tone.

    Problem with fractal bot not allowing update..when I press "begin" it doesn't respond..any help /suggestions much appreciated.

    Download the update from the Fractal Site and extract the SYX file and load that in Fractal Bot. Don't use the update prompt in Fractal Bot for this one. I tried that and it did NOTHING. Have to get the source SYX file form the Fractal site. Please listen and do this.

    Problem with fractal bot not allowing update..when I press "begin" it doesn't respond..any help /suggestions much appreciated.

    I had same problem with downloading new firmware update. Fractal Bot when opened would say new Firmware update available and when I clicked on it, nothing happened. What you have to do is go to Fractal Site and download the new Firmware update and slide over the Syx file and then it will...

    Axe-FX III JP2C model Vs. Real JP2C

    Did the same thing over the past year or so with all of my tube heads. Using the 4CM and a real tube head, you can easily toggle between using the real tube head for the amp tones and just using the AXE 3 for pre and post effects. Then with a quick patch or scene change you can now use the...

    Dyna-cab, general consensus is that they're "better" than legacy?

    To me the Legacy cabinets sound better for playing live in a FRFR setting and require very little tweaking whereas the DynaCabs I can get to sound close but require lots of adjustments of the mic placement and blending different cabinets to get the same sound as the Legacy cab's. In the end...

    Atomic CLR or 2x QSC K12

    I have 2 Atomic CLRs. Been fighting IR's and FRFRs for years and always went the route of using traditional guitar cabinets with my AXE FX or Kemper. Tried numerous other high end FRFR's and never gelled. Had a mint CLR come up for a great price locally and so I took a chance on it and I am...

    How good is the Axe into a tube power amp or even a really good SS power amp or even FRFR?

    The AXE is a tool and think of it that way. Be-it using a tube power amp, a SS power amp and real guitar cabinets or using the AXE with FRFR studio monitors, or FRFR wedges or even headphones this can sound amazing in all of these applications. Devin Townsend said something along the lines...

    Dyna Cabs Beta Review

    Find myself doing the looper and moving the mic position myself. Also find myself a/b ing my favorite Legacy IR's with the Dyna's. Also you can expand the tonal possibilities by using the Dyna Cabs but turning off the Dyna Impedance section in the Amp Speaker block and then use the...
