Introduction to the Axe-Fx III

That's all I could find as well . I had seen people mention 30 days on various forums - including the Kemper FB user group. 2 weeks sounds like a lot - and if you're a full time musician, it is - but for those of us with full time (meaning 60hr)/week jobs and kids - it's not nearly as much...

Introduction to the Axe-Fx III

How long is the trial period? I was under the impression it was 30 days just from things I had picked up from reading but when I looked on the Fractal page - I couldn’t find anything that said longer than 15 days?

Axe III on the way - Question (Speakers/Cab/PA)

haven’t tried the RCF yet. I will this weekend and at gig volumes. I will give the Friedman another run. Right now everything feels muffled - and that includes through my Adam A7x monitors. although I did play with the amp EQ last night and that seemed to help. Still looking for that bite and...

Axe III on the way - Question (Speakers/Cab/PA)

I will say that I wasn’t thrilled during my 10 min audition last night with how it sounded through the Friedman. Looking forward to real experimenting time this weekend.

Axe III on the way - Question (Speakers/Cab/PA)

Yes - I did have that much down. :blush: What I was getting at is - isn't one of the key defining characteristics of a PA speaker or even your home stereo speakers for that matter - just how F the F's are? Obviously there are other things - but Speakers can be very expensive - and outside of...

Axe III on the way - Question (Speakers/Cab/PA)

You know - I looked up the PA speaker you cited - and it got me thinking - why don't most people just do this? After all - isn't that basically what the FRFR is supposed to be? Or conversely - the best PA speakers - supposed to be FRFR? (Realizing that's an idealized concept only of course)...

I will try to checkout the xitones. Had not heard of them at all.

Axe III on the way - Question (Speakers/Cab/PA)

And I’ve been trying to read here about what powered FRFR seems to be the preferred. I have 2 FRFR cabs - an RCF NX12SMA and a Friedman ASM12. I’ve been playing through a Kemper for the last 2 years or so - when not playing through one of my tube amps. I had the Axe II prior to that. I got rid...

Distortion Tone That Cleans Up With Volume Knob

It probably has quite a bit to do with your guitar and pups as well. I have yet to tweak a single preset - I'm really really lazy :) - so with all stock presets I've actually been marveling at how the tones not only clean up - but don't lose as much volume as I sometimes perceive with a tube...

i played a jvm 410 yesterday

I have one as well - but for some reason - I was never happy with how it sat in the mix with the band during rehearsals. Fortunately they were in my basement - so I'd just hook my Bogner up. I tried it several times - and never found anything I was happy with. I still have the amp - and it...

Trying to use SPDIF outs on Axe FX II with Firestudio Mobile

Sorry for the slow reply - I just relocated from Maryland - and still don't have internet out here in the boonies yet. @barhrecords - The sample rate is the only thing I can lay claim to - I certainly haven't looked at bit depth - tomorrow I'll see if that's a knob that can be turned. I do...

Trying to use SPDIF outs on Axe FX II with Firestudio Mobile

Hehe - I took a deep breathe LOL - this was yesterday - I slept on it before coming in here and doing some searches. The wiki link you posted is what I found and it's also in the manual - and I believe that's what I'm doing. I did experiment with having the firestudio use the Axe clock as...

Trying to use SPDIF outs on Axe FX II with Firestudio Mobile

Now that I've been picking up my guitars again lately - I'd like to be able to record - as well as tweak patches through my studio monitors - should I ever feel like starting that process. I'm a newb really (in so many categories) - even when I used to play my recording was limited to analog...
