Anyone have squealing issues?

Although this was in an Axe FX 2 thread - I think it's very relevant and may be of some use: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/tweeter-squeal-ruined-the-rehearsal-last-night.90679/ Tweeter squeal is obviously something that a fair amount of users here are experiencing with FRFR monitoring...

Thanks for taking the time to reply, but this is definitely a Marshall sound i'm chasing.

Help with particular Marshall distortion sound

I don't consider myself to have a bad ear, and generally have been able to produce most sounds I need without too much trouble, however - this one is really bugging me. I can approximate it, but there's something very special about the 'grainy' decay sound when a power chord is hit that I just...

Review of my new Kicktags MFC Labels

So I finally got round to putting my new Kicktags on the 'board last night. I'd been using the previous glow in the dark labels for a couple of years and they looked pretty good, although were starting to peel apart in places (no helped by meddling children..) - They'd had a good innings! I...

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 1.00 Firmware Release

Silly question, but I've only just finished tweaking my 35 or so patches for live use (one for each song and with specific level changes) after firmware 19 was released. I really don't get much time to rehearse with the band at live volume. I assume this update has the potential to knock all...

Positioning for gig volume tweaking

I have the exact opposite experience of this. My gig volume presets are very different to my recording/practice level presets. I usually stand a in the middle of the two pa speakers in a band environment in order to tweak. That way I generally hear what the audience will hear.

Trying to recreate this tone - help appreciated :-)

Thanks for your suggestions so far. I've not had much luck with the 800 - seem to keep coming back to Steve Stevens Rebel Yell territory with that. It's that grainy quality to the decay that is so illusive to me. Ideally would like to achieve this without the need for 3rd party I.R's - there's...

Trying to recreate this tone - help appreciated :-)

I've been trying to nail this 'Marshally' sound for ages, but just don't seem to be able to quite nail it. There's just something about the 'grainy' quality of the decay when a chord is hit that I'm not able to get so much. I have noticed a similar quality on the ACDC Live album (1992). Don't...

Something strange is happening on certain amp models..

Merry Christmas everyone!! Thanks for the replies - I tried switching amps/cabs, wahs on/off etc, re-installed the presets but no go at all. Amp block was not bypassed. In the end, I deleted all the presets (accidentally) and went back to a previous firmware (16 I think)- plexi's back to...

Something strange is happening on certain amp models..

I was running firmware 17.0 at a rehearsal last night and everything was going well until I used a preset that utilised the Plexi 50W High amp and the sound was so different it nearly blew our ears off. What was once a fairly smooth lead sound, is now an almost clean, extremely loud, clipped...

Triptik Modern on 16.02...

I had the same issues with the Triptik and also a couple of the drive pedals sounding a bit off. Posted a thread about it but assumed it was because I came from version '13. something-or-other' to 16.2 and has missed some of the earlier release notes. Had to increase the gain about 2.0 on any...

Firmware 16.2 - is this right?

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere and i know there's tonnes of these threads every firmware update, but I've just come from Version 13.07 and was under the impression that nothing would need to be 'reset' and there would be no major changes to presets. I have found two strange issues...
