Axe-Fx II "Ares" Rev 2.00 Firmware Release

But it could also be that this one sentence of Cliff is misinterpreted by us. @FractalAudio Do you plan to release another firmware for the II at some point?

Good clean preset?

My key to a great and still cutting clean tone is to balance pre-amp dynamics and output compression. This way I can play softly and the amp stays clean and I am still loud enough to be heard. When I dig in the amp breaks up but doesn´t get too loud. My favorite amp for clean is the Hiwatt

Axe-Fx II Firmware "Ares" 1.00 Public Beta

Ares brings definately a more focused upper midrange while the lower midrange has this scooped richness. The subs produce more 32nd order even harmonics and the lower bass is punchier due to an attanuated high shelf boost. Sounds like there is a parallel equalizer side-chained by a ducking...

The Axe Fx II will go to 11? Does that mean it´s one louder?

Are these Axe-Fx 2 hardware limitations?

OK, I am a former Axe Fx Standard owner and bought my Axe FX II Mark 1 the day it was available. So that is different for me.

Are these Axe-Fx 2 hardware limitations?

As if the Axe Fx II will die, if it doesn´t receive firmware updates ... Focus on what you have and if you really want and need the 3, then buy it. At first when I heard about the 3 I was like: "Ohh Fck!", but after a while I noticed that when no more updates are expected, I can focus on...

Axe-Fx III on the way

An IR of that MS-2 speaker and a distortion pedal in front of it should get you pretty close!

Has anyone attempted to tone match from an .MP3 or .WAV song?

I can't express how much I hate plastic on the screen. What do people expect to happen when they remove it? This plastic does not protect against damage. And scratches? Come on, this isn't a phone that's on the table or in your pocket. And even if, a scratch is never as ugly as this plastic. If...

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 9.04 Firmware Release

Updated yesterday. I don´t know if it´s the new firmware or the fact that I made my presets new from scratch, but the sound was incredible. Especially the Plexi 100W High and the Soldano SLO with almost default settings sounded absolutely amazing. Could be the new presets, new firmware or just...
