    Putting back my home studio together ==> Unusual level of hum affecting signal (both OUT and Headphones)

    Hi, I just redid my entire home studio, with the install of an Output desk. See picture. Unfortunately getting a very high amount of hum coming out of the Axe FX, which I can hear, whether plugging my headphones directly into the Axe's headphones output, or into my audio interface that...

    Price of Axe Fx III long-term (i.e. once available post waiting list)

    Do you guys know whether the price of the Axe Fx III, once the waiting list thing is over (i.e. once you can order/receive an Axe Fx III within days), will be $2499 or $3499. I believe it is the former ($2499) but wanted to double check with y'all..

    Hum depending on position of guitar with respect to Axe FX II. Same with Axe III?

    Hello, With my Axe FX II, I have noticed a hum that seems to appear/disappear depending on the position of the guitar with respect to the Axe FX. I have positioned the Axe on my desk (standard height) and am sitting on a stool within arms distance to the axe FX. When looking at the axe, I get a...

    Timing on availability of exact specs/photos of FC-6/12

    Thanks for the feedback. Well, by 'limiting', I meant: (1) I would much rather not have to purchased an interim pedalboard while the FC is being designed/rolled out/available on a waiting list basis, (2) my focus is on playing, rather than learning multiple platforms, etc., which goes back to my...

    Timing on availability of exact specs/photos of FC-6/12

    @Randalljax Yeah, thinking of the same timeline. And that's excluding the waitlist craziness. I love Fractal Axe Fx. Have owned several since day 1, but here, it looks to me that they are shipping a car with a tank 1/4 filled. I feel that it is fair to know exactly about the pedalboard (specs...

    Timing on availability of exact specs/photos of FC-6/12

    Asking because without a fully dedicated pedalboard, use of the Axe FX III is very limited for live situations/gigs.

    Axe Fx III & Mission Engineering

    Thanks @lqdsnddist ! So SP1 for wah/Whammy and EV line (1 or 2) for volume/delays/etc.? Have you tried the pro-aero line a shot? Seems to have a wider range so perhaps good for all aforementioned use? Thanks again

    Sharpness/readibility of Axe Fx II's screen starting to decrease

    Hi guys, Quick question: I have owned by Axe Fx II since it came out (2011 I believe). While using it pretty much exclusively in home studio, I have logged thousands of hours on it with no issue. Recently (last couple weeks), I started to notice that the unit’s LCD screen is harder to read...

    Any upcoming feat. for MFC 101 pedalboard with 2 lightbulb per switch (instead of 1)

    Hi, Any plan to equip the MFC 101 pedalboard with a second lightbulb (similar to Ax8 I believe) for each switch, instead of the current single light? I would upgrade my MFC mk III in a heartbeat then.. From what I have read, there is no easy way to leverage the XY capabilities of the Axe FX...

    Syncing Audio & Video trick

    Thanks guys. For some reason, the updated iMovie (I had been using an old version) seems to have made it easier. Not perfect, but good enough for my purpose:

    Syncing Audio & Video trick

    Hi guys, I have to create videos on a weekly basis w/ video from an external camera and audio coming from an Ableton track. What's your guys' trick to sync? I have heard of recording a loud clap, but this doesn't apply since the sound in the room is not recorded. So what do you guys do? One...

    2U case for Axe Fx II similar to SKB Roto Rack, but more fitted?

    Thanks guys. Based on your guys's feedback, I went on the regular (i.e. non shallow) skb roto rack 2u. Likely big but protective, pretty secure, etc.
