    Add me to those asking if gapless switching will make it to the FM9? Haven't seen that answered yet.

    Newbie Question: Mono Synth Output

    Thanks again for your input. This is the synth: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/CircuitMono--novation-circuit-mono-station-paraphonic-analog-synthesizer-and-sequencer To be fair though, a single output is common practice for mono synths and I find it more odd that going to such...

    Newbie Question: Mono Synth Output

    Sorry to clutter the forum with a newbie question. My Axe-III arrived a week or two ago and I finally racked it and hooked it up yesterday. It's being used as my audio interface/sound card, so I connected my mono synth (a Novation Mono Station) via a TRS cable to input 3 L. I have output 1...

    Can an Axe-FX III provide the following?

    You, sir, are the man!!! Thank you so much for the thoughtful reply. I especially appreciate your insight on the Linux compatibility. Just curious, what distro are you using? Specifically, I'm using Kubuntu 18.04.1. Have been contemplating if I should upgrade to 18.10 or just stick with...

    Can an Axe-FX III provide the following?

    Hi! For those patient and kind enough, I have some important questions to ask. :) Former owner here of an Axe-FX II XL+. Loved it! Had some financial issues after a couple of years, however, and begrudgingly sold it and purchased an AX8 as a more affordable replacement. Shortly after...

    Best Way to Route Into This Mixer?

    Thanks again, guys, for all of the feedback. Ideally, I agree with Stratman68 in that I would like to test the following four methods of connection to see which yields the best results: 1) AX8 > Babyface Pro balanced inputs (1&2) via XLR > monitors 2) AX8 > Babyface Pro unbalanced line inputs...

    Best Way to Route Into This Mixer?

    Appreciate the feedback. That's exactly what I was intending to do because it seems a much cleaner way to do that. However, I'm going to be plugging the mixer's main outs straight into the only balanced XLR inputs on the Babyface Pro, which leaves me with two options that I can think of...

    Best Way to Route Into This Mixer?

    So, I just purchased this mixer: Mackie 1202VLZ4 (https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/1202VLZ4) I have a brand new AX8 that was originally going to go direct into the back of my RME Babyface Pro audio interface via XLR. However, I expanded my setup to include two hardware synths and needed...

    Quick S/PDIF Connection Question

    Ouch. Guess I should have realized this before ordering the expensive equipment earlier today... Thanks very much for your insight. It makes sense now. One more question for you, if I may: Which route would you recommend? If I get the converter, it requires an additional electrical outlet...

    Quick S/PDIF Connection Question

    Sorry to bring this up here, but I'd love to get a straight answer from someone. I'm downgrading from a XL+ to an AX8, which I ordered today. Since I was using the XL+ as my PC's audio interface, I also ordered a RME Babyface Pro. Thus, I intend for my signal chain to be the AX8 into the RME...

    Active Monitor Upgrade Advice Sought

    Just a quick update: Appreciate everyone's advice. After a lot of research and consideration, I actually decided to purchase a pair of Neumann KH 120s. Not cheap, but hopefully will be exactly what I was looking for. Will let you know what I think when they arrive, if anyone is interested.

    Active Monitor Upgrade Advice Sought

    Concerned about the low end transfer between apartments with anything larger than a 5". Is this unfounded?

    Active Monitor Upgrade Advice Sought

    Anything in particular about the Yamahas as opposed to the Equator or Adams? Unfortunately, I think 8" monitors would be a little too much for my situation and would prefer to stick with something in 5"... I know, I know. Regardless, would any of the above produce a noticeable improvement over...
