    Anyone catching the Swift game today?

    Glad to hear that, I read more carefully again and I see more clearly what you're saying there. The delusional belief in that craziness is puzzling. Back to Fractal land, a more logical and fun-based world!

    Thanks for the sarcasm! Hard to believe some people actually think this is true.

    Let's see those FM3 rigs!

    No velcro.

    Connection lost

    Just got a used FM3, 6.02 firmware. Downloaded FM3 Edit (1.05.16), hooked up to my iMac (10.15.7), worked great. Shut down everything, left USB cord plugged in, with FM3 off, some of the lights on the top (forget which ones) were lit up; now if turned off, grey blank screen on FM3 , power cord...

    BMI, ASCAP, etc. suing bars?

    Nice to hear from some folks that are actually a part of the system. Totally agree, the artists should receive their due reward accurately. I don't think anyone disagrees that some system should be in place to that end. What that looks like in reality is tough. Without an actual plan - even...

    BMI, ASCAP, etc. suing bars?

    Not sure I'm on the same math page as you, what's the third agency - those two items you listed don't add up to $3k. Is there another US licensing group? I think that different artists have licensing deals - BMI or ASCAP or the international one. I have always wondered why there isn't just...

    BMI, ASCAP, etc. suing bars?

    Just passing along what I'm reading. "What I'm hearing" is similar to "everyone says" - zero credibility except as individual stories. These stories come from bar owners looking to make more money and artists who want to monetize their art. As the web site shows, there are licenses for...

    BMI, ASCAP, etc. suing bars?

    https://www.ascap.com I couldn't find it on the web site, haven't read it all, but else where I saw $3.33 x the occupancy of the place, with a minimum of $356/year. So any size bar up to about 100 occupancy pays $356, and it goes up from there by size. There's different stuff for different...

    BMI, ASCAP, etc. suing bars?

    One thing I don't think I saw here - these agencies make their money collecting fees for the artists. I saw bunches say they're taking all the money, raping the artists, etc. That may be in some cases, because greed and big money leads to criminal activity sometimes. As I understand it (I...

    Reserved MIDI CC

    That makes some sense, just wondering 'cuz I currently use a Liquid Foot Pro, and fuzzily trying to program it to control Axe and Helix rack (not at the same time, mind you) with as much overlap of CC# as possible. One or both may have to be changed, but seems like AFX can use any numbers...

    Reserved MIDI CC

    Are MIDI cc#s 1-10 on the II XL+ reserved for something in particular, or are they just not used as defaults? On the chart, there are default values for most everything. 1-10 doesn't appear. Also, even though those assigned are all defaults, they can be changed, correct?

    what do you guys use for a lead/solo boost?

    I only did it a bit, I've just recently gotten an IIXL+, but I think there was a gap in X/Y when changing amps, but not when you're changing to the same amp model but with changed parameters. Lots of option, no matter. OP got lots of suggestions, hope he posts which one worked for him.

    what do you guys use for a lead/solo boost?

    Couldn't he just use the X-Y function, make them identical other than output. Seems simplest.

    Mixer on block pages in Axe-Edit

    That makes sense, Will stick to volume block to control.

    Mixer on block pages in Axe-Edit

    When a particular block is chosen, there is a MIXER box on the far right, which includes some different stuff. Looking at the amp models - there's a Level knob - where does this fall? It's not the OUTPUT BLOCK, it has Balance, Input Select, Bypass Mode and other parameters for different...
