    Is it possible to set up a global pitch block?

    Thanks for the replies everyone, it's a shame there's no easy way to do it using global blocks

    Is it possible to set up a global pitch block?

    Hi all, In my band's set I need to alternate between two tunings depending on the song and use the pitch block to achieve this. I would ideally like to have one set of patches for the whole set and be able to apply a global pitch block to them when appropriate, is that possible? Currently I'm...

    Palmer Macht 402

    Thanks Chris. The main draw was the price to be honest - I'm just after an affordable power amp really. I don't see the power rating being much of an issue for me, the overwhelming majority of shows I play have a mic'd backline - I recently played a large festival using the axe along with a...

    Palmer Macht 402

    Hi guys, just wondering if anyone here has any experience with the Palmer Macht 402 poweramp? Opinions seem to be a little thin on the ground because it's not a particularly well known amp. Many thanks in advance for any help :)

    FRFR sounds terrible to my ears compared to poweramp/cab. What am I doing wrong?

    Wow...sorry gents, I had no idea this thread had taken off this much, I don't come here that often. I chucked the weekend at it, upgraded to quantum and bought cab pack 13, and I'm pleased to say that clean and crunch tones sound much better to my ears. Perhaps still not AS good as they do with...

    FRFR sounds terrible to my ears compared to poweramp/cab. What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for the responses all Honestly it's a bit of both. And I know they're not the greatest speakers in the world, but I've seen many other axe users who all seem happy with them, and they certainly sound great listening to music. And I have them plugged directly into the axe, so the...

    FRFR sounds terrible to my ears compared to poweramp/cab. What am I doing wrong?

    Hey guys, so I'm used to playing the axe through a poweramp and 2x12 cab and it sounds absolutely phenomenal, but whenever I hook it up to my Yamaha HS8's to do some recording, it sounds pretty awful in comparison. I make all the necessary changes in the global and I/O menus, and try tweaking...

    Axe to power amp + cab but using studio monitors for backing tracks

    Hi all I much prefer the tones I get using a power amp and cab setup, but I like to use my studio monitors for playing backing tracks and such. My question is, is there a way to set up the axe fx so that I'm getting my tone out of my cab but also using it as a sound card and getting the...

    2 amp sound

    My main tone is two amps and cabs panned left and right, and it's perfect to me, haven't tweaked a thing in months. It's a combo of FAS Modern and Spawn Q-rod 2nd with cabs from the OH high Gain Essentials pack. I never ran into the problems with trying to tweak two complementary tones, I just...

    Super Quick High Gain Rhythm Patch Demo

    I made a thread a week or so ago about how cranking the master volume really made my rhythm tone come alive, and here is an ultra brief demo of the result! It's a stereo patch with a blend of FAS modern II and Spawn Q-rod 2nd panned hard left and right, and to my ears sounds pretty nice.

    Potential high gain tip? I dunno, it worked for me

    I was playing around with my main high gain patch today (FAS modern II + Spawn Q-rod 2nd) and discovered something that finally got it where I wanted it to go. Basically I was after something periphery-esque - but not in an overtly djenty kind of way, more of that smooth gain structure with a...

    Hum/Crackle Problem

    I've had a persistent problem with a crackly/buzzy sound from the axe fx for some months now, across multiple firmware's, including 15.02. The noise is very loud and obvious and is driving me nuts as it renders the axe almost unusable. It seems a lot quieter with my les Paul, but with my PRS SE...
