    Error while installing Axe-Fx II drivers

    I found this page from the Fractal Audio knowledge base to be most helpful: Axe-Fx II Driver Installation Steps (Windows) The 2nd section worked for me. I did however have to try a few different things: different USB port (for some reason, one of the 2.0 ports worked for me but another didn't)...

    Guitar Setup Help Needed

    In some cases, flipping the problem saddle around may help with intonation.

    Effect for sweet emotion intro

    Like Chuk above, I've incorporated a Rocktron Banshee into my setup. There aren't that many occasions I get to use it, but it does a great job when I do!

    The Honeymoon is Over...

    It's a Rockman MIDI Octopus used in conjunction with a relay box I built to bring stomp boxes in and out of the effects loop. Leftover from my old, pre-Axe-Fx rig where it was also used for channel switching on my Mesa Mark IIC.

    Presenting... The Axe-Fx III

    Congrats Cliff and company! Does the III have a built in mic preamp on one of the inputs for vocoder type stuff and for those who want to add effects to a mic-ed talk-box?

    Axe-Fx STILL at Heavy Discount. How Does this Not Indicate New Axe 3?

    I'd be jazzed if Fractal decided to release some real world tube amps based on their FAS models!

    Headphones rabbit hole

    I use Audio-Technica ATH-M50s headphones, which are an older version of the ATH-M50x. They're decent and reasonably priced at around $150.

    mic in?

    I used an old Shure A95U Line Matching Transformer. It boosted the signal a little, but not enough to be useful.

    mic in?

    I've tried a line matching transformer with a mic on my 1st gen Axe-Fx II and it did not work too well (couldn't get a hot enough signal for my liking). Some of the ART project preamps should work pretty good.

    Backing Tracks

    I've had pretty good luck using JamVOX software to isolate and/or remove instruments. Sometimes you have to run more than one pass for different song sections (for example, different filters may be needed to remove a guitar solo). It's easy enough to record these as separate tracks in a DAW and...

    Welcome TREVOR RABIN!

    Indeed! I think of Chris every time I pick up my Rickenbacker bass.

    Welcome TREVOR RABIN!

    I was at that Miami show too! As a huge Yes fan, I thought the Union album was a bit misleading; making us think they all worked on the material together while in reality there were still 2 distinct camps. Even though it was great seeing all these members of Yes from different eras on the same...
