Ares - what's new?

So I've been out of the loop for a while (mainly because I gave up expecting a firmware update after about half a year) to see that the II (XL+) now has Ares ported, to some degree. I was interested in what the actual difference is, under the hood so to speak. I remember seeing a white paper or...

Possible bug (or my ignorance): Studio Comp

Hey folks, after finding some time to deal with this, I've finally found that it was the makeup gain. (I've also learned about pedal compressors being at the front of the chain and studio at the end of it - it's amazing what RTFM'ing can do for you). Thanks for your help!

Possible bug (or my ignorance): Studio Comp

Hey folks, before I go to the bug section and Declare This To Be A Bug, I just thought I'd throw this out there: I am playing a Fender Elite Jazz Bass (with active option but using passive only) and I took Preset #4 (I think Fender DoubleVerb) and changed it to be an SV amp with an 8x10 SV Cab...

Software FracPad III - iOS/Android/Mac/Win Editor for the Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, AX8/FX8, Axe-Fx III and FM3/FM9

So I was struggling to see how. Let's find a suitably obscure parameter - say PI Bias Freq on the amp advanced page. Well, I have a midi keyboard connected to a windows PC, and the axefx, both via midi over usb. How do I tell frac pad about this keyboard? I can right click on Midi CC# to...

Software FracPad III - iOS/Android/Mac/Win Editor for the Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, AX8/FX8, Axe-Fx III and FM3/FM9

Quick question: does this have a midi learn feature? Say I have a controller, can I map a standard midi message to tweak this knob that then gets translated to axe-midi (for all the advanced parameters that don't have simple midi parameter support)?

Hi Iarsee, thanks for the response, but that link returns an error for me - maybe if you could repost!

where did dr. bonkers go?

Hey folks, Usually use the AxeFX for guitar, but now am playing bass too. I seem to remember some cab packs that were bassist oriented - I think they were called Dr. Bonkers. Any idea where these went? Any suggestions other than the one ML pack? Thanks, Rik

Are All XL+ Units Equal?

Oh you are a brave man, cactus tone. You knew you had it coming, yet it still came! Fwiw I think that this is a perfectly valid question in the philosophical realm, because there are production differences and even if digital bits seem like they make perfect copies, a change in say the clock...

Mesa Overload

Thanks for all the input guys. I guess one part of the "user experience" of buying cabs confuses me - "where the hell do I start?". I'm now aware of 4 producers, plus of course the rumoured remake of "the site's most popular cab pack, cab pack 13". So would anyone be able to share with me how...

Fractal used for real amp design!

I love it when hardware in the loop (HIL) testing comes back around to actually improve the models once the product is out. If Carol Ann or Friedman use this as a HIL platform, hopefully they reciprocate and collaborate on the final model. If so, that's really cool symbiosis!

Wish: "Tab" through param pages

Hey guys, One request (hopefully simple): To have a key binding to go through parameter "pages". I'd say tab, but at least some keystroke combo that means I can go from e.g. Basic -> GEQ -> Preamp in the amp parameters pages. This would allow me to have keyboard only workflow Up/Dn/+Ctrl to...

Basic navigation through keyboard (!)

Hey, so I tried reading the getting started guide (it may be old, I always find it difficult to find, it would be nice to just have a link for a help file in the axe edit toolbar...) aaanyways I have a really simple request since I'm not sure the keyboard shortcuts are working for me. I'd like...
