MFC 101 cable question.

I have the original 101 and the regular AXEFXII and can't seem to get a 25 foot cable to work with it. I have a bunch of smaller ones that work perfect but ordered from monoprice, Amazon, and got one at fry's and can't get any of the longer ones to work. 1 won't even power it and the other 2...

Suggestion for guys who love a 4x12 trying to go FRFR

This thing that always was wrong for me isn't the not moving air. My Frfr speakers move enough air to blow my head off. The thing I needed was an IR that sounds like how my ears heard the cab. Not how the cab sounds with an SM57 or something in front. I'm using my ears as the mic and just needed...

Suggestion for guys who love a 4x12 trying to go FRFR

I've been a 4x12 guy for about 25 years. I keep trying FRFR and just can't get a sound I hear in my ears like I do sitting in front of my 4x12. I've made IR's of my mesa cab that sound pretty amazing recorded but running through the FRFR setup jamming doesn't give me that usual sound I am used...

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 3.01 Firmware Release

Seriously, super thanks for returning DYN PRES. I seemed to be the only one concerned about it and seemed to be using it often.

Underrated Amp Models

I own a Quickrod that I love a lot. I play through a cab always with a matrix power amp and it is incredible close to the real thing. You absolutely NEED to turn on the SAT SWITCH and you are good to go. I run my actual quickrod always on 1st gear with the gain on 10 and the axefx is almost...

Axe-Fx II Quantum Rev 3.00 Public Beta 2

Cool. Thanks for the settings on the CHARACTER control. It didn't quite do what the old Dyn Pres did though. The Dyn PRES was a gem I really started using to brighten up the tone out of a cab with my power amp. It made a world of difference just moving it up to 1 and made the tone really...

Axe-Fx II Quantum Rev 3.00 Public Beta 2

I realize that. I've had the axefx since the month it was released. New 3.00 the DYN Presence does absolutely nothing. I'll just roll back to 2.04 till it gets worked out.

Axe-Fx II Quantum Rev 3.00 Public Beta 2

I'll give it a try. I uses the 5153 50W Blue and play trough a cab and at 1 it was perfect. Now from 0-10 it has absolutely no effect on tone. Tried it on 5 different amps at least and it does nothing for any of them.

Axe-Fx II Quantum Rev 3.00 Public Beta 2

Since 3.00 the DYN PRES basically does nothing. I used to run it on a lot of amps the perfectly brighten things up at about 1. Now I can turn it full blast and it makes no difference it all. Any suggestions or info on how to get that function back in another tweak?

Side by side comparison

Are you using the the head for everything except effects? I know when I set it up I have the amp model output set way lower or it's super loud. I have both outputs on the axefx maxed out. I remember it took me quite a while to even set it up in the patch and you have to do it in a scene. I'm...

Marshall Jcm 800 2203 ZW (Zakk Wylde) Signature Head?

I think this is the ugliest guitar ever made DEAN makes one that looks exactly like it. So I'm not sure who wins a fight over using this body style.

Side by side comparison

I ran the axefx and my EVH50w head together and the are REALLY close doing that. Its actually the only head I own that the axefx models that sounds amazingly close when using its power section and just the axefx pre. The others 5150,6505+,orange rockerverb 50, Splawnquickrod, and mesa triple...
