    Step 1: Sell Amp- Done. Step 2...

    So the Roadster went today. I just found myself using plugins to practice and record as it was so much easier. I've been reading on the FM9 vs AxeFx3 and trying to figure out which to grab. In terms of reverbs and delays does the FM9 reach its limits quickly or is that only with insane settings...

    DAW Setup for Switching

    Could someone point me at a guide for setting up your DAW for switching presets/scenes/patches? Found some so so vids but nothing that's thorough. Thanks. Sorry in advance as I'm sure this has been asked, but I just haven't found it yet :)

    SLO. Anybody digging this model? Am I missing the point?

    I tried out a 100 watt model in a music store around 2008 and it sounded fantastic even at lower volumes. One of my favourite amps.

    Romancing the Pedals

    I was going to pick up the Captor X to run my Roadster for recording but that's $600 Cdn. Plus all the other previously mentioned pedalboard expenses. Just last week I tried out the demo of the new Neural dsp Mesa plugins and ended up using those more than my amp. After that I started leaning...

    Romancing the Pedals

    I have a Musket pedal and a Pig Hoof. Great pedals for Gilmour.

    Romancing the Pedals

    I’m thinking of going with the new FM9 myself. I can start there and see how I get along with it.

    Romancing the Pedals

    I was watching far too much of That Pedal Show and thought of putting together a wet dry rig. I’ve been away from any sort of serious playing for a few years since a close musician friend passed. My research into that realm has brought me back here. For the cost of a few Strymon pedals I could...

    Why Is It Always The Axe FX Getting Destroyed?

    His schtick is tired, but it's now become the only way he can maintain viewers. I watched a vid of someone roasting him once that was amusing. It was a compilation of a bunch of terrible tones he'd recorded. His favourite target is Line6's cheaper lines. I used to watch a few years ago but it's...

    Wish Firmware update

    This is sort of the same issue I alluded to with the Ultra in the other post of mine on the FX8. Here's a link to that below. This is why I'm reluctant, while being completely understanding of limited resources etc...

    FX8 Considerations

    In the meantime I'll keep an eye on the FX8 patch thread ;)

    FX8 Considerations

    This is one of my main concerns as well. I had an issue with this regarding the Ultra, which I posted about, but won't get into here. I ended up selling it. Dropping or having inadequate support might discourage some people from purchasing or continuing with the product. Switchers are...

    FX8 Considerations

    I'm going to be using it mainly for recording for now. The cost vs pedals, particularly once you add in a switcher and power, is very appealing with the FX8. Not to mention the cost of boutique pedals. Of course with the pedals you can tailor your sound a bit more with your selection of pedals...

    FX8 Considerations

    I've been doing what many here have no doubt done, and that is weigh the FX8 against the boutique pedals you so desire :) Perhaps I've watched one too many episodes of That Pedal Show, but I just can't seem to make up my mind between going down the pedal route vs the FX8. Have any of you who've...
