    Wish 2 Plexi Delays pls

    I am in love with the sound of the plex delay. I have the axe 3 and absolutely love it. Then I bought the fm3 as a backup and for rehearsals. I found it way too limited for what I want from it. Now I bought the fm9 turbo. Awesome. I am in heaven again. All my axe 3 presets work fine, I just...

    Kemper has a new upgrade out

    i don’t own a Kemper, never did and never will. I did read some first responses from the public with mostly messages of disappointments of the absensce of features which we all kinda take for granted here. Any ppl with some kemper knowledge here with insights on the improvement?

    new guitar with issue? Input welcome

    Bought a used Suhr 2 weeks ago. Love it, but I keep hearing something that worries me. It is a lefty, pro, S6 with floyd (gotoh). Originally HH, but previous owner made it HSS. Routing was already there. Now it has a thornbucker and 2 FL (now called ML I think) pickups. It has one push pull pot...

    Hi all, I have output left going to my frfr and output Right going to FOH. any way I can assign the knobs output 1 and output 2 on the FM3 to separately control these outputs? If no, what I expect, do you all go to FOH with the jack outputs? Thanks, Harm

    TRS to midi for expression

    Hi all, Just bought an FM3. It is awesome and exceeds my already high expectations. I was expecting to want to have extra buttons, but the sheer genius way you can work with three buttons convinced me otherwise. Enough with the compliments, now to the question. I have 3 expression pedals I’d...

The drummer is a simon phillips fan very capable and motivated. The bass and keyboard player are ok, but no slapping or fast stuff on bass...

    Tremolo and staying in tune

    Hi all, Let me refrain from embellishments and ask straightforward: I am looking for a new guitar. I am very interested in a Suhr. However, having owned a music man silhouette and owning a fender strat elite now I am not convinced a non locking trem system kan keep a guitar in tune. Most demos...

    Wish Copying multiple blocks

    Another oldie but goldie. Being able to copy/paste multiple blocks between presets. Would be such a timesaver too. I know it has been asked before multiple times, but asking doesn’t hurt I hope. I love axe edit. Very intuitive and easy to work with. I only have 2 wishes and now I have shared them.

    Wish Cabs in use

    Oldie but goldie wish. I just spent 2 hrs going through presets, writing down cab nrs which I use so I could move and or delete cabs.

    Help needed mimiq mini

    Vendors

    Hi All, I think it would be a big improvement is every vendor just has one topic line. To name the two opposites: Justin does that, which is nice, Marco Fanton makes a new topic every single time he produces something new.

    Just saw Devin Townsend and Dream Theater

    Yesterday’s concert in Amsterdam was awesome. Devin was the opener. The backing band was tight and did what they had to. For the rest: Let me just say that I wasn’t a fan and I did not become one unfortunately. DT was awesome. Lots of new tracks which is both nice but also unfortunate if you...

    Hi all, I have the axe 3 and the rjm mastermind gt22. I was looking at buying a mission expression pedal. I know there are ‘standard’ pedals and pedals made specifically for the axe, the kemper, tc, however: since the rjm is ‘in between’ and that is the device that I calibrate, does it matter...

    Rjm I finally did it

    Oh man, I finally bit the bullet and ordered the gt22. It is arriving tomorrow. I’m so thrilled. I will be able to use the axe a lot more to its potential. It will be a weekend of programming I think. Of course Ill need a new pedalboard too… off we go. Harm

    Improved hold function

    I would love to have a hold function that just sustains your sound as it is. The delay now gives it a bounce and the reverb makes it synth like. The looper can’t do it either because it has that ‘hiccup’ where it loops. What I would like is to play a chord, sustain it with hold, play fills over...

    Wish good freeze/ sustain function

    I know the reverb and delay blocks have a hold function, but they both have a disadvantage. I'd like a hold function that completely bypasses or doesn't use the effect (rev or del). This way you can get a sustained sound that sounds exactly like what you just played. I posted getting this...

What I want is to be able to either press a button or use cc pedal to strike a chord or note and to let it ring indefinetly while I play something else over it. I didn’t manage to get it to work...

    Volume control button midi

    Hi all, Let me keep this short. I know there are options that I can programme this in the axe, BUT: I now use a midi cc pedal (boss fv500) to control volume out of the axe. The wheel on the side of the pedal gives me the ability to change the rhythm volume (toe up) to lead volume (toe down)...

    Extra buttons

    Is it possible to add extra buttons (right now I am thinking of the looper but of course it could be anything) via the inputson the back of the axe? I am assuming 1 button can be connected with a mono cable to the modifier input so that would enable me to add 2 buttons since you can connect two...

    Wish Changing the number of the effect block

    I’d like to be able to simply change the number (1 or 2). In the editor screen. Would be a big timesaver for me while programming and also a big help to keep consistency. ( for example the pitch block that sets my tuning from E to Eb is always nr 2. ).

    Factory presets

    This just popped in my mind: the axe is loaded with quite a lot of factory presets. These were all made based on the first software version. Now we are at 15.1. All the vendors bring out updated versions of their presets when it makes a difference. As I understand version 15.0 made a lot of...

    Number of the same effects
