    FM9: FRFR in front or behind you

    Which is to say, I always use the powered FRFR as a wedge monitor in front and use direct to FOH for the room. I use a wireless when performing and walk the room to get the FOH and wedge to “link up”. I prefer the monitor approach to ride feedback. When I use conventional amps, I use a side...

    Jazz Fix - Who's got it?

    I just did a couple duet sets with a vibraphonist using your patch. Very nice for that gig!

    Axe-Fx II Firmware V12.00 Up

    That's what Kevin O'C does with his amps, on a pot. Might be a cool mod to the patch...dial in PP vs SE...I liked KOC's studio amp run in-betweeny this way.

    Dual Amp Tones

    One of my most useful tube amp sounds is made by blending the two channels on my Bogner Duende. While they share a single back end (!), they can be dialed to nicely create a hairy, edge of sanity sound with an articulate and punchy top. Cuts well while sounding like shitsgunnablowup, which is...

    Axe fx II... good enough for professional recordings?!

    I get paid to record with my Axe FX. When the mixing engineer does not know I went direct from the Axe, they think the recording engineer was a genious. Jes sayin'...

    Things I've learned from my Axe-Fx II

    Appropriate and thoughtful technology allows me to focus on playing something that moves me and my clients. I have freed up "CPU power" for entertaining and schmoozing with our audience and this makes bar owners happy. The AF2 lets me take off the tech geek hat if I wish and plunge into music...

    Used my AxeFX II / Atomic CLR for the first time playing out and....

    And that is where I am at. As much as I enjoy technical info and messing with equipment, more so do I love when gear disappears and music happens. It is to the credit of Factal that they have offered us a tool that can be completely transparent to the process of music-making. I look forward to...

    One FRFR wedge/cab in mono versus two in stereo. Big difference in sound?

    One of my favorite performing sounds was to place a 4x12 on either side of the bass cabs, which were right next to the drummer on either side (L->R GTR, Bass, Drummer, Bass, Guitar). Holy schnikey was that ever a fun ride! Too much gear without a van, though, and I no longer play venues that...

    just a small rant of annoyance....

    :^) I see you are on da be-yatch. I just played a gig at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden across from the Convention Center with my Ultra (duo set with a vibraphone for an art auction/fundraiser). Paid well and nobody complained about lack of AFII!

    What PC MIDI interface are you using for ULTRA ?

    "M-Audio Fast Track Ultra" works for me and has for years with my Axe-FX Ultra. Just finished using it 20 minutes ago...
