    Axe-Fx III Firmware 26.00 Public Beta

    After listening to the samples 2-3 times each, I found out that this 2ms difference changes the 'overall sound' of the sample. I passed the test, but I'm pretty sure that I did not perceive the latency. What I perceived was the difference of the two sounds I hear. Therefore, my opinion is that...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 26.00 Public Beta

    I recreated my presets, so the settings might not be exactly the same as the previous ones, but my experience is opposite. I increased the cab block high cut frequency from 9500hz to 10khz with fw26.

    Dynacabs! Post your best recipes!

    Just ask the new sound guy. It has no ear fatigue :) The previous version, when uploaded a graph, was giving errors. It could never give a true response, and made me wait for a whole lot of seconds before throwing an error. This one responded in one second. It did not choose 2cm, and avoided...

    Low and High Cut For Live Performance

    This is a proximity chart of a R-121 mic that I found on the Internet. Not being sure how true it is, low cut could be a necessity for the low end to stay authentic. That's why I also suspect that low cut may be necessary even for bass guitar.

    Low and High Cut For Live Performance

    I use 80/8000(q=12) for dynacabs, in my home studio for recording. I wonder about yout bass settings. Do you use high and low cut for bass?

    Amp models that surprised you

    The Stealth. It has some kind of 'juice' that I cannot describe very well. Compared to the 5153, it has something that the Block Letter has compared to the 6505+, but more refined. I love it coupled with the Lerxst dynacab.
  10. ertan

    If you like amp x, try amp y

    ...justice for dynacabs: if you like the 1960TV but looking fore a more modern vibe without overpowering low end, give a try to the Lerxst 4x12. I f***ing love that cab. It has a some sonic quality that comes strange at first, but you get used to it in a few minutes. They are a better couple...

    If you like amp x, try amp y

    Such a wonderful topic! If you like the D-30 clean, try the Chieftain setting the mids a little more than usual. If you like the HBE, try the Archon.

    I just played for a few minutes, so the next paragraph may not be completely true. I'll edit if necessary. I'm having some issues with the C note region, while palm muting, it overpowers other notes. I'm pretty sure that the room is involved in this. While this got gradually better with some...

    I absolutely LOVE the Stealth Red, combined with the 1960 dynacab, which is my favorite cab for guitar, but I also like the 5153 dynacab, it sounds clearer, but I cannot dial out the boominess of that cab, regardless of the amp. Do you have any suggestions for mics and placement for that cab?

    My impression of the new reverb demo makes me want to add it to my thrash preset that I directly record with, it is that good. I'll probably have to name it Jason and set it around 5% - 6% just because of the style's constrictions. I will try it ASAP.

    About Amp Loudness and Amp Block Output Levels

    Thanks for the answer. What I wonder about is that if I recreate my preset with their components' analogue counterparts (two amps into one cab in different channels), will I also get the same volume levels with that gear?

    About Amp Loudness and Amp Block Output Levels

    For a while, I unintentionally keep the output levels of amp block channels with different amps equal, and set the MV accordingly, which I usually set low.

    BUY AN AMP FOR A WEEK IN THE AXE 3

    I have this approach for many years. I 'bought' two amps and two cabs, 2 months ago. Tucana and Bludojai gives me everything I need for the 4 tones I use, from clean to mean. And about cabs, I switch between Recto Straight and 1960TV. While the first one seems to be a bit tighter/clearer, the...
  20. ertan

    What’s your choice of Amp model(s) with best “feel under the fingers” ?

    I agree. Mesa Mark happiness without worrying about the 5 band EQ. About loudness, I don't know, but when the MV is subtle (about 2.5 - 3), the amp seems to act much more modern.

    Hi, I use gapless presets, in which there are two identical amp blocks. Amp 2 is the one that is always running, and Amp 1 gets active only while switching channels.

    Yes, L is a bit boomy for my taste. Recto 4x12 Straight's resonance is 72Hz. Rumble seems to have more than one resonance peaks, but not so sharp. These two are different than the other 4x12's, generally having one peak around 110-120hz. My favorite two cabs are these two right now.

But Rumble is my preference for now. I will upload a preset...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 22.01 Release

    I agree. The amp is known for not losing clarity when the bass is increased, in addition to this, I think that it also doesn't lose clarity when the treble is decreased. Its usable EQ and MV ranges are really wide.

    Thanks for the green channel, great update. With input gain at 1 and MV high, you can get great metal clean tones that are naturally compressed and with mild breakup. If the blue channel comes in, probably, my guitar preset with 4 amp channels will be Revv only. I'll even set my foot...

    Tuner Issues AXE 3

    Yes, dynacabs made me use and like the Mesa 4x12's with very little effort. I also didn't like them at all with previous IR's. I think that it is the new continuous workflow that makes any cab useable. Kind of like switching from digital to analogue :)
