    FRFR Question

    I'll echo what others have posted here, you're better off with the Fender FR series than the headrush. Instead of chaining them together, run stereo with two of them. Note: It's not absolutely necessary to run stereo, I run mono 90% of the time in most gigging situations and never find it lacking.

    How to achieve a more enjoyable headphone experience?

    One thing to make sure you double check is that your headphones are stereo. Sometimes users use adapters that sum headphones to mono and that causes phase cancelling. Next, it's also setting the expectation that headphones, even expensive high quality ones subtract one very specific thing from...

    Fractal + Amps owners : what do you bring onstage, framing in context?

    Small to medium sized venues (Bars/Restaurants): FM3/Am4/FM9 with a Fender fr-12. Occasionally a RCF NX12-sma if I need the wedge format and need to place the wedge in front of me as opposed to an amp behind me. Medium to large sized venues (House of blues sized venues): FM3/AM4/FM9 into the FX...

    AM4 settings

    For reference, headphones are stereo with factory settings. If you use an adapter that sums to mono, you'll have phase cancelling. As for the tones, do the factory settings sound anything like the videos online? If you have a deviation from the factory presets, there may be an issue with your...

    Expression pedal choice ?

    I use the Roland EV5s or the Akai/Maudio Expression pedals. They have the TRS cable already attached, are lightweight and affordable (around $30 on amazon). Mainly because I do alot of travel dates etc. If you need something more robust, even though they're on backorder the Fractal EV-1/Ev-2s...

    Test Your Famous Guitar Tone Recognition Ability

    Got about half in one try. I spend a lot of time with my clients listening to isolated guitar tracks to nail tones built on FAS products. The hints for me were actually the reverb or time based settings of each single note. But kicking myself I didn't identify Eric Johnson.

    Suhr Scott Henderson Classic S or Fender Eric Johnson 1954 Virginia Strat

    Go with the Suhr. The Henderson model is basically a vintage strat with all the best features of a modern guitar. Doesn't fret out, has the hum cancelling etc. The stock tremolo arm is much shorter, so if that is weird, you can order a standard length one from Suhr for around $10. Doesn't come...

    FM3 live routing: FOH on Out 1 + power amp & real cab on Out 2 – FX settings?

    I send the same effects to both outputs. So the only split is right before the cabinet block between the two outputs. Occasionally I will put an GEQ block before out 2 so I can adjust the feel of the power amp + cabinet without it affecting FOH. Mainly, FOH does not usually need a lot of low end...

    Expression Pedal help . More like depression pedal

    Even though this is for the FM9, it will also work for the axefx3. This is to use the pedal jack in the back of the AxeFX3 --not-- the FC12 or FC6 foot controller.

    Help with unwanted ringing(feedback)

    Does this happen with every guitar? Could be a microphonic pickup.

    Always on delay?

    As he does, I assign an expression pedal or a performance page knob to adjust the input gain, then I can blend it in and out at will (just as Andy does). If i'm playing a syncopated clean funk guitar part, the input gain is nearly zero, a guitar solo, I'm adding way more. And of course...

    Always on delay?

    I use the Aurora Delay, low mix always on. Basically copying Andy Timmons' approach.

    Most Valuable Music Book - Your Opinion?

    "How to Improvise" by Hal Crook is still one of the benchmarks for me for a music book that applies to any style, any instrument, any genre and is one of the most universal, never ending concept books. I use this with all my students and they can start improving and improvising on their...
