    Axe FX III: Something's Missing...

    Joke aside. If you are interested in protecting your screen an iPhone or iPad screen proctor would work even better than the Axe II film.

    How do you take care of your Axe-Fx in the best way?

    In some cases yeah .... What we are talking about is reducing risk not completely eliminating it. Some one grabbing a surge protector (various levels of quality there also) is way better than nothing.

    Surge protector is a good idea...quality one's could save you from a lightning strike...it's the same as a computer

    How do you take care of your Axe-Fx in the best way?

    Rack case will just protect from scratches and protect knobs in the event of a fall. No need to worry about humidity or temp it's good in all likely scenarios except for rain! Wipe down is fine. Vacuum outside of vents is fine. No need to unplug cables but no issue with replugging ten times a...

    First time buyer : XL worth it?

    One reason that other's failed to mention is the far superior case and fan design of the XL over MK i & ii. I bought a Mk i initially and the noise in my studio drove me insane. I researched fan mods etc but to do it like the XL you would need to remove the motherboard and drill air intakes on...

    This is still a current fix as of OS X 10.11.5 and AXE EDIT 3.7.2 FractalBot would reload firmware and banks of patches but Axe Edit refused to see the Axe FX II even after restarts shutdowns change cables and USB ports on the Mac until deselected the port to none then reselected The Axe...

    Amp Show discount?

    Ok thanks guys. There was a guy on the TGP forums I think who bought an XL+ & MFC-101 MkIII at last Octobers Amp show for a show discount after trying the AX8. He was a Kemper user actually, tried a lame Helix like me and was forced to get into bed with his banker again to go Fractal! HaHA...

    Amp Show discount?

    I'll probably be going to the LA Amp show and I am thinking of updating my Mark I to a XL+ or whatever is current then. I gather in previous years there were discounts going at the show on XL+'s does anyone remember how much of a discount and is it likely to be the same again? Also are there...

    Do Pro Users Record the Axe-Fx through a mic pre?

    Van basically reiterated what I said earlier about there being no benefit up sampling the Axe to 96Hz bit depth was never in question. the question is 48k>96k>192k ? For Axe no benefit. For analog in a BLIND test can you hear the difference consistently to pick it more than 50/50 ... I...

    Do Pro Users Record the Axe-Fx through a mic pre?

    I agree once you are digital you stay there unless in rare circumstances you need some tone shaping from a super high end tube eq or something. You are also correct that the digital audio data in spdif is exactly the same... the only reason to use AES over spdif is very long cable runs. Fractal...

    25mm thick fan

    Well all the jacks can both intake and outtake ... which is doing which would be a science test but irrelevant for my purposes. The only way to control it would be to have an outtake fan in the side opposite the DSPs. I appreciate some are saying that blowing even the warmish air over the dsp...
