    MIDI switching CC on/off question

    You can't easily do it with CC only with the Eureka chip. I've been very disappointed with that chip's limitations. It can be done easily with the stock FCB & with the Uno chip. Another way to do it is with scenes and that can be handled by the Eureka.

    Axe FX Volumes for live use?

    This issue is similar whether you use a modeler or traditional guitar amp & pedals. The ONLY real way to do it is at near gig volume with the band. Live, the phrase "less is more" usually applies. The more gain, delay, modulation, etc etc etc you add, the less your sound will cut through the...

    How to display Preset Numbers Greater than 1-9 correctly on FCB1010

    As far as I know, that's not possible with the stock FCB or Uno chips. The only way I know it can be done is by using the EurekaProm chip in IO mode where all display LED segments are addressable BUT then the FCB pedal basically does nothing but send a single CC/Value per button/controller and...

    EurekaProm 3.2 Tuner Issue

    Turns out the problem was caused by the Axe/FX II I/O MIDI SEND REALTIME SYSEX etting was set to NONE. Setting it to ALL or TUNER restored the function at the pedal. Not sure how it got changed because I was not familiar with the setting. Still trying to chase down another EP chip issue. In...

    Ampeg amps for guitar?

    I had a V4 from the mid 70s until about '99. The one I had was somewhat unreliable and acted like it had a cold solder joint somewhere but no one I brought it to was ever able to find it. It only acted up when played at lower volumes. When I finally decided to move on from it I took it to a Sam...

    EurekaProm 3.2 Tuner Issue

    I just got a EurekaProm 3.2 for ,y Axe/Fx II and 2nd FBC1010 (I've been using another with the Uno chip for years). The 3.2 chip has a new feature that reflects the Axe's tuner onto the FCB display. The display will show the note and next to it on the left, a + for sharp, - for flat, or blank...

    Direct to FOH Rig with IEM and vocals?

    Did a gig once where the sound was done using a QSC Touchmix Compatible mixer. Soundguy had us d/l the Touchmix app and then connect our phones to his router at the gig. We were all able to adjust our own monitor mix onstage from our phones. It was very cool!

    FCB 1010 programming

    Each of the switches on the stock FCB1010 can be programmed to send out one or more MIDI events. The events may be a combination of patch changes, Continuous Controller (CC) values, and/or notes. So, yes you should be able to do what you want. I don't know if your device wants the same MIDI...

    Need a patch that cuts through the mix

    My $0.02... I've always found that less (fx & distortion) is more live, especially if there are other guitars & keys playing. To my ears, most of the stock patches were crafted 1) to show what the Axe/Fx could do and 2) to grab the player's ear when demo'ing solo. They sound great when noodling...

    Making a Humbuster Cable - 1 or 2 Conductor Cable Required?

    I made a couple of HB cables today and it worked out well. I was getting some hum and the new cables significantly reduced it.

    Making a Humbuster Cable - 1 or 2 Conductor Cable Required?

    Thanks for that explanation.

    Making a Humbuster Cable - 1 or 2 Conductor Cable Required?

    Yes but what would be the difference between that and this: Wouldn't they be exactly the same to any device sensing from the TRS end? The R & S from the TRS end are connected to the S at the TS end in both, right? What purpose would the extra wire serve?
