Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 2.02 Firmware Release

Just loaded it in...Sounds like instant greatness here! I had been using 2.01 and doing some tweaking but was starting to feel like there was something I didn't like as well as 2.00, but figured I just hadn't adjusted to it yet...Got a good feeling with this latest version that for the nine...

Bug? LFO1 acting weird in latest Beta

Ok, just installed the latest update--unfortunately didn't fix the problem--BUT, have discovered another part of the puzzle which may b significant. I stated above that the LFO seemed to react to amplitude--I decided to mess with the ADSR1 parameters to see if if had any effect. Turns out it...

Bug? LFO1 acting weird in latest Beta

Thanks very, very much for taking the time to check it out. I've been doing some further testing myself with some strange results. Here's what I think I've learned so far about my issue with the latest beta (and I see that the finalized version of the firmware just posted so I'll try that and...

Bug? LFO1 acting weird in latest Beta

Hey, thanks for checking on it Iakesse--In answer to your questions--No, Axe-Edit isn't running, (and FWIW neither MFC or USB is connected). Also re: "3 or 4 bar tempo"--On the LFO control page theres that parameter TEMPO (second from the bottom) which enables you to set rates by musical...

Bug? LFO1 acting weird in latest Beta

I'm having some strange things happen when using Lfo1 on the latest Beta software. Problem may be confined to patches made on earlier software, as when I go to completely blank new patch and add a block to test Lf01 everything seems to operate as expected. I thought it might just be a corrupt...

Fractal Audio AMP models: 6G4 Super ('60 Fender brownface Super, 6G4)

Just want to add to the chorus--these are fantastic write-ups Yek, the likes of which I'm sure many of us have wished existed for a long time. I particularly like the tonal comparisons between various models, i.e.," x is like y only with more clean headroom", etc...Similarly the pointers to what...

Quick control knobs

I also REALLY miss the functionality that the quick control knobs used to have. It was so nice to be able to just say "this needs a little more modulation" and just crank the knob. I can understand why Cliff might have felt that the old style of function made operations when you were editing...

So: What is the best way to make your guitar sound like a bass?

I've tried the pitch block ideas noted here--but never liked them that much (latency and flubbyness). I had better luck by using the ringmodulator down an octave (set so that it tracks pitches, of course), blending in a little of the original signal for attack, and tonematching the result to a...

Wish Cab Manager shows a list of the presets to which a particular UserCab is connected to

Love the idea of clicking on a cab and having that show the list of presets a cab is used in. That would really make it so much easier to navigate what can be a tricky process. The old Axe-Edit had some sort of feature that you could at least see a list of the presets and what cabs were being...

FW 14 Delay block doing some weird stuff (NOT A BUG)

Don't know why it would be FW14 thing, but this comes up every so often...The left and right delays in the 2290 are out of phase, and thus cancel each other out when mono-ed...
