    Boost Scene

    @22 frets, I find the same difficulty keeping levels constant with an unconstrained volume pedal and found the 3db range to be a convenient solution. I’ve also used it for effects mix (drier<->wetter) which is kind of cool.

    Boost Scene

    I have used two approaches to accomplish this: 1. Attach a modifier (I’ve used a pedal) to adjust the level within a 3db band, so you can push it forward and get an extra 3 db. This has the advantage of being able to work across all scenes without a lot of ”preset complexity” 2. Use the scene...

    IEM best practices

    Thanks all for the insightful and quick replies. Super helpful as usual from this group! We had a show this weekend where I used the IEMs and my ears felt great the next day. Like Chris, the job I’m solving for with IEMs is mostly hearing protection and reasonable sound clarity across the band...

    IEM best practices

    I’d be interested in understanding best practices from those of you who use IEMs for live performance. I’ve had good luck using IEMs in professionally mixed shows, but have typically used one or two Atomic CLRs, stage monitors, and musicians’ earplugs (which I don’t like and find frustrating)...

    AFIII Queen Medley

    My band (Ivy Road Band from Atlanta) made a quick trip to Carlsbad CA this week for a corporate event. Here is our take on a handful of classic Queen songs from that show. I have fully converted from the Axe FX II XL+ to the Axe FX III for live use and am super excited about that! Really...

    Sustain “button”

    Does anyone have a good ‘sustain’ scene — which would basically repeat the input signal until the scene changes? I’m trying to simulate infinite feedback in a situation where I may not have a stage monitor to do it organically. I’ve looked at the forum traffic on this, and tried with...

    Scene toggle and function indicators

    I have started to use the per-preset overrides with scene toggle to provide access to more scenes on the bottom row of my FC-12. It's a pretty cool feature -- for example, on certain solo scenes, I have a "toggle" scene that has a +2 db boost and bump to the mids which I can hit real time if I...

    Switching from Mark IV to Axe-Fx III

    I have several Boogies including a Mark II, Mark IV and a Triaxis/2:90 rig with a Mesa 4 12 cab, and hardly ever play them anymore. I got tired of lugging them to gigs and don’t like playing too loud at home. Most importantly, the Axe FX versions have become really outstanding, particularly...

    How to make sure my presets will cut through mix?

    Similarly, I also use the Global EQ screen and drop the bottom 3 bands by 3-4 dB and bring the mids up a bit depending on the room. That seems to help, but it can be a challenge to get this right...
