    Help transferring new preset to specific bank

    I have always used the Fractal Bot to transfer the A bank to where my B bank lives on the Axe Fx. Today it won't transfer the bank at all even though it just did the firmware update. Borne's sysex program did transfer the new bank A to my Axe Fx bank A though. My problem is I want it in bank B...

    Before sending my Axe II back to support I seek peanut gallery suggestions-midi

    I did contact support and a ticket has been open. They were very quick to respond I am pleased to report. That being typed, before I go without my Axe, I seek ideas from the forum. By the process of elimination and logical deduction, I am pretty sure my Axe midi in jack is jacked. Every month...

    Quantum bug? Saving banks internally.

    When I go to save my bank internally, it just flashes back to the screen I execute the command from in utilities. It used to take a while and you saw a progress meter as it saved. I'm not quite sure it's saving at all as it happens so fast. I would reload the bank but I want to make sure it...

    And then there were 2-CLR Neo

    My second arrived yesterday and made me remember why I always liked two of any speaker, only now more so. STEREO! I ran them in wedge with guitar and ripped face for a bit. Then I put them on the poles you see. They are near the corner and I know that's a huge no-no but it is what it is for...

    Did something with that CLR Neo I hadn't tried until tonight

    I showed up at this Church tonight for a short set. They had little Behringer 10 inch powered monitors. I have always used my 2 monitors for me and one for the house, whatever is there. Lately I have been just using one CLR and the house. Tonight right before set up I remember reading guys...

    Well here is my final report on the CLR Neo-The Studio

    I took my one CLR Neo to Maximus Studios today. (Maximus Media) This place has three studios and here in the pic we are in one of the rooms. Studio A if you looked at the link. The owner, Jeff Hall, has been running the place for 30 years. He uses the Mackie HR824 ( nearfields) mostly but...

    CLR Neo-At the club report w/pics

    Here's a couple of shots from the gig last night. One of the rig and one from the balcony. I was able to carry the Axe rack, pedal case, guitar bag, and CLR all in one load easily. Remember, I'm 58 (actually will be Monday) and have bad shoulders. I always used the two DLM8's before and was...

    Now that the cat is out of the bag-CLR Neo

    Tom King called me out of the blue a few months ago regarding this new product. He had seen my post regarding the reason I had cancelled my order...weight. I have one shoulder with no cartilage and the other has a bursitis. I just can't lift heavy stuff anymore, it hurts for days afterwards...

    So I got a CLR to try

    First thing I did was put it next to one of my little, beloved, DLM8s here in my home studio. The difference in clarity was immediately apparent. I tried to goose the mids on the DLM to match but no dice. There is a transparency to these things that is real and tangible. Had I never heard one...

    That new bass cut

    New monitor tech saves rehearsal-My first club gig in over 20 years

    I got a call to sub in an original band for an upcoming club showcase. I haven't done clubs since 1991 when I was in a fifties band for a year. Hated it. I showed up for the first rehearsal and brought my axe and the two DLM8's. There was a full drum kit set up so I knew there would be some...

    CLR guys

    Are some of the bank A presets slightly bass heavy even on your flat systems? Specifically some of those recto patches? Stuff like Recto Vintage. Maybe it's just my monitors. Wondering.

    This strikes me as funny in a way

    At the Axe fest in LA last year, the presenters all played through the house pa which were the dreaded QSCs I believe. I don't remember anybody saying anything but how wonderful James Santiago, Mark Day, Scott, or Tosin Abasi sounded. Now they are the monsters of harsh highs and woofy lows. And...
  15. zentman

    Idea for CLR guys.

    Dial in your patches so they sound good on your CLRs then upload them for us who own vastly inferior gear so we can see how they translate as well as examine differences between our creations. Put "CLR whatever" (patch name) in your title.

    Got the DLM8's today.

    So far I like them. First off, look how small they are. It's almost comical. What isn't comical is the huge fat guitar tones I was just getting. I was really worried about low end but I am dialing a boatload of it back. I don't know about 2000 watts but they are louder than anywhere I will...

    Caution using axe exchange with Bornes

    Some patches you try will go right to where you are parked on your axe. Other will appear to have not downloaded at all. The others are actually going to another location and overwriting whatever you had there . They also save themselves to that location automatically.
