    Axe-Fx III Wish List

    That would work as a separate feature but you would also need some sort of Macro layer so you can assign a knob to multiple parameters.

    Axe-Fx III Wish List

    But can you call up those FX combinations quickly as and when you need them? Can you test out those combinations in other presets without spending an age copying settings across? Can you do any of that in a reasonable timeframe? But who wants to listen to people tinkering with modulars? Even...

    Axe-Fx III Wish List

    In Ableton we have Effect Racks which work like this but generally they are no comparison to dedicated Multi VSTs both from a sound and usability perspective. At least with a DAW you can buy any effects you're missing

    Axe-Fx III Wish List

    Multi-FX blocks. The DSP power must be there by now to truly replace all those Strymons/H9s? I can't imagine many people find the individual blocks method preferable when it comes to complex sounds. Not sure why this hasn't happened yet. Maybe the algo engineers are too expensive? I dunno...

    Is it me or is the Axe fx 3 aesthetically unpleasing?

    The III looks immense. Still no multi-fx though?

    Fixed 48k Sample Rate Impedes Recording Studio Integrations

    Well to be fair if the III could do double duty as a home studio piece I'm sure lots of UAD users would switch or downsize.

    External Pedal initial value?

    What do you mean by this bit? seems to be working so far! Thanks

    External Pedal initial value?

    I've got an expression pedal (2) mapped to the gain of a drive pedal. If I remove this pedal it defaults to 100%. This is how I'd want my volume to pedal to behave but not my drive! Worst case scenario I need to be able to run a show without any expression pedals. The init value page seems to...

    professional touring experience with AX8

    I'm about 80 gigs in with my Ax8 and it's never missed a beat, some very big shows. IEMs so no stage volume. Only issue I had was the bar coming loose so I removed it. As a pro touring piece of gear it's a dream. Unfortunately the pedalboard and pelican I tour with is too large to drag home so...

    Something for the Fractal folks re Pete Thorn

    The modern day endorsement (if you're not actually famous) is really just 40% off RRP "artist pricing".. Most companies are happy to give you this.. maybe a bit more if give them a quote for the website.. maybe free if you do an official video. Maybe its just a loaner for a few months or just...

    Something for the Fractal folks re Pete Thorn

    I think Fractal are missing a trick with their artists endorsements. Severe lack of pop/commercial session players.

    Using Backing Tracks to Trigger Preset/Scene Changes w/ Bandhelper

    Great thanks, I'm using an Ax8 but often away from my board. Yanking the midi should be fine then! I'll stop derailing the thread :) Cheers

    Extra footswitches?

    Ok so LEDs will not be a thing with AUX switches then, good to know. Am I right in assuming a momentary switches are a better buy since you can set them both ways in the Ax8? I'm looking at either the Boss FS5u, FS7 or - https://www.vein-tap.com/product/skinny-little-twins-dual-footswitch/

    Using Backing Tracks to Trigger Preset/Scene Changes w/ Bandhelper

    What would the backup consist of? something to kill the incoming midi stream?

    Using Backing Tracks to Trigger Preset/Scene Changes w/ Bandhelper

    Are there any obvious downsides to automating Scene/Preset changes via a playback/software rig? I use ableton to program backing tracks but playback is via Cymatic or Qlab. Unfortunately apparently Ableton cannot export midi tracks with multiple program changes so each song will be limited to...
