Zappa Alert

I have a lot of different fuzzes that I use in different ways. I'll take some pictures soon and add them here on the forum with a little explanation about their use. In it's most basic form the rig is two discrete rigs in one. I have effects that go to individual signal paths and to the combined...

Hi Guys, Thought I would make a comment here real quick. For edification purposes... Pledge campaigns are designed to create awareness for projects in various ways. They can entirely fund a project, help fund projects or accomplish things in between. Records are expensive to make and yet people...

Guthrie Govan sat in with us in Manchester

Hi Fractal Friends, I haven't been on the site in a while. I'm using the Axe II currently and I have been enjoying all of the new features in 3.02. Last Night in Manchester England my friend Guthrie Govan came on stage and joined us during the song "Chunga's Revenge." He played through my back...

The Beatles Revolution

I was on the same quest. One of the solutions I found was to make a preset that did not include any speaker cabs and I used a fuzz pedal in front of the Fractal. Here's a video with a snippet of the sound. DZ in the studio - Dweezil Zappa World

Dweezil on Leno

Fractal On Leno Hey Guys, Thanks for the kind words. The Hendrix guitar is a lot of fun to play especially now since I started the restoration back to the way it was in 1977. The modulation sound was coming from the Mic Mix Dynaflanger. I use it on one side of the sound. I happen to really...

New sounds, audio clips DZW.

Hello Clark, PRS is definitely making a limited run of DZ signature models. They are announcing and taking orders at Namm. The title is a funny one. Tricky sound to re-create. I got in the ball park though. DZ

Axe Drop tune verses Morpheus? anyone try?

I have tried the Morpheus. It does the drop tuning very well and it has a switch that allows quick transposing which is handy. It also has a toggle switch that toggles between standard tuning and drop tuning, also handy. Having said that it also adds noise, it's a bit hissy. The Fractal does...

Dweezil Zappa - Fractal Cello

Hey FF's, I will post that patch when I get a free moment. It's really not that far from the original "Violin" patch from 3 chord Rock. Different gain structure to a degree and different reverb and delay. I am also using a custom blended redwirez cabinet and a TWA Systech Harmonic Energizer...
