    Update from 4.0 to 6.0 issue

    Hey all- Recently updated from 4.0 to 6.0 and the majority of my presets are significantly quieter. Is there a known fix for this or am I needing to redo my presets? As I typically do a preset per song type of thing, this represents a ton of work (75+ presets). Any advise is welcome!

    FC-6 Sidecar: Total Success

    I use my FC-6 as a sidecar for my Police Tribute band- I have multiple delay divisions set up up for instant access- tapout the tempo, select division, off we go!!! Works beautifully, especially since leader constantly calls audibles.

    Are most of you gigging with your FM9's?

    Gigging with Rush, Police, Pink Floyd Tributes on guitar and auditioned to play bass for the local Yes Tribute playing bass. So yep, using the absolute hell out of mine. Rush Trib I run my midi bass pedals through it for processing, Floyd Trib has a Slide guitar and a keyboard run through and...

    QSC K 10.2

    Let's see those FM9 rigs!

    Finally got in on the FM9 action but haven't committed to affixing to a board yet. I play in a couple tribute acts with different rigs for each. 1st is for my Rush group where I play "Taurus pedal", 2nd is for Pink Floyd with keys and slide. All instruments routed through FM9.

    Setlist Functions via MIDI

    PC will increment actual # of preset just fine but setlist has presets in different order then preset #. So set list with songs 3, 15 and 36 will increment as per list where as PC INC makes 3 go to 4 and 15 go to 16 etc therefore defeating set list function itself.

    What Kind Of Music Do You Play? How Do You Practice?

    Cool playing there! and a guitar switch for some bar action- cool! I have the same Suhr but 100's of gigs have left it worse for wear- mine is probably an ounce lighter due to the amount of wood that has been shaved off with funk guitar rhythm.

    What Kind Of Music Do You Play? How Do You Practice?

    Pro freelancer here- my main gig is a corporate dance group that does mostly private gigs and city type functions- as such I don't really need to practice for this as 95% of the stuff is the same gig to gig. I also play in a Rush Tribute group that covers the entirety of their career. This one...

    Morningstar MC6MKII and Axe-FX III

    In my Rush Tribute Group R50, I use my MC6 as a remote to change scenes when going from Taurus Pedal to new guitar sound. I also have it programed to step through presets in setlist format as a workaround since the Axe doesn't have that feature yet. Bottom 3 switches scenes 1-3 and top left and...

    Morningstar MC6 to Mimic FC6 (OMC9?)

    I use MC6 to step through presets on the AXE3 and add the extra scenes missing in conjunction with the FC6 I'm using- barely scratching the surface but does what I need. I'd bet you can get a lot of mileage out using MC6 this way.

    Live Workflow for Cover Bands - Song Lists vs Complex Presets

    Threefold. My Rush Tribute pretty much demands preset per song. I use Midi mapping to create set list and use Morningstar MC6 to step through. Prince Tribute fits across 3 presets- I use hold function on FC-6 to switch back and forth between adjacent presets. For corporate top-40 party band I...

    [Planned] Support for Set Lists?

    I use MIDI mapping function with Morningstar mc6 to program/step through songlist. Kind of a pain but effective none the less. Now if MIDI Mapping feature on AXE 3 was accessible via AXE Edit- things would be excellent. As is its carpal tunnel city having to turn that dial for 30 songs....

    Looper Timing with FC-6
