    Anyone receive their 2023/24 CLR Neo deliveries?

    "I always keep vendors on a short leash these days, especially if they have a poor track record. No response over a couple of weeks to inquiries, and I just file a dispute with Amex. They never question me, just reverse the charges, and on I go to the next purchase." Yea, I've been out of the...

    Anyone receive their 2023/24 CLR Neo deliveries?

    Hope it works out for you and others that might be on the list with deposits. I ordered 2 right before they ran out and received them no problem. I figured at that price they might be discontinuing them. Even had some late night emails with Tom about availability of the cab version. Website...

    Atomic CLR's on sale 899 https://atomicamps.com/

    Well hopefully I don't regret it but I bought a pair. Was really tempted with the Redsounds though. The pair showed up in checkout as another $100 off so $850 each. I had non neo ones years ago and really liked them.

    FS FS: MISSION ENGINEERING GEMINI 2 2-12" POWERED CAB W/BT

    Looking to sell one of my Gemini cabs. I rarely played through them and they never left my house. 99% of the time I play it is just through headphones. I was thinking about selling both and just getting some good monitors but the Axe FX in a matching box sitting on top of just 1 2-12 cab looks...

    Gemini 1 question

    I had a powered gemini 2 212 for a couple years. I wanted a second one and tried the Matrix, 2 passive cabinets set-up. I didn’t like it. Powered sounded better. Also at the time Matrix was having some kind of qc issues and both amps they sent lasted 5 min and shut down. Luckily I didn’t sell...

    New Suhr has "dead" notes :(

    I had a mahogany/maple body, mahogany neck Modern. I think I got it from Eddies. It was a special run of Plus’s for them. Thought this would be an awesome combination on a Modern. And yes, G string around 9th fret would die almost instantly. I tried to figure out what what was going on as I have...

    AFIII Presets Pink Floyd presets pack - Fremen

    What can I say, I’m blown away by the III. The new user interface, the sound, effects, just incredible. I hopped on the Fractal train with probably one of the first batches of Axe II Mark 2, sold it after a couple years to upgrade to an XL+. After a couple years with the XL+ I was looking to...

    Boss AC-3 in loop

    What I'm attempting to do is run 2 signal chains. One with just the AC-3(FXLoop), and the other a normal chain for the distorted sound and use a mixer block/exp pedal to go between the 2 chains. Is this possible?

    Boss AC-3 in loop

    I can hear the dry sound when I have output 1 up. There's nothing to the preset except shunts and the fxloop block.

    Boss AC-3 in loop

    Someone gave me a Boss Acoustic Simulator a few months ago. I never tried it and decided to try it in the loop. Never really messed with the FX loop. I plugged FX send to pedal input and pedal output to FX return. Using a blank patch with just FX Loop, I expected to be able to turn up output...

    Mission Gemini 2-P SE

    Frfr first impressions!

    It's much better than I expected. I'm amazed at some of the spacey patches I tried where the sound is huge and surrounds the room. I love stereo and, although it would be nice, have no desire to purchase a 2nd Gemini cab.

    I know Matrix and Xitone get a lot of love here and with good reason. I had 2 CLR wedges and was happy with them but wanted to try the cab thing.

    Got one too. Love it. Sold my 2 CLR's after having the Gemini for a while. The CLR's are great but it's a nice to have a cab again. Especially a powered, FRFR stereo one. I thought it sounded good even though it took me a while to figure out one side wasn't working cause of a loose connection...

    Anyone using a Digitech Drop?

    I have one and it sounds great when engaged but noticeably muddy when bypassed. Obviously, when unplugging the guitar from the Drop and going straight into the Axe it sounds right.

    Frustation! First bad "gig" with the Axe....ever.

    For some reason when I turn on my XL it sounds bad. I always thought it was the Digitech Drop I had hooked up glitching. I'd shut of the conditioner and turn it on again and it would be fine. Then when I ran straight to the XL, I'd hear it again. I realized for some reason the Wah in the patch...

    Strange behavior on start up with XL+. Is this normal?

    Ok, thanks. I did some reading up on it and see how that can be done. No biggie though, I can just I can just move some patches around. I'll probably just put the factory ones in D,E and F
  31. G

    Strange behavior on start up with XL+. Is this normal?

    Ooooops. Going from the 2 to the XL+, I forgot about the MFC, (well, MIDI in general I believe), not being able to go above patch 384. My bad.
  32. G

    Strange behavior on start up with XL+. Is this normal?

    Ok, I unplugged the MFC and it stays on the D bank patch. Any idea what in the MFC or Axe settings is causing this? I just went from the 2 to the XL+ a few weeks ago. Don't think I made any changes on the MFC settings.
  33. G

    Strange behavior on start up with XL+. Is this normal?

    I have all factory patches loaded in A,B and C. I use D bank for my own stuff. If I'm playing a patch in D bank and shut it off, the next time I turn it on, it shows that D bank patch on the display but quickly reverts to a factory patch I played last.

    FRFR Options CLR vs ?

    Being just a home player, I've had it at loud home volume with the cab volume at about 1/4. Reasonable stage volume should be no problem. I haven't compared them yet though. Xitone would have been another awesome choice. Mick has real cool stuff going on like the midi switchable FRFR bypass...

    To stick with Matrix or not

    Agreed. An instrument cable MAY work but if it's an unknown cable to the user it probably has more of a chance than a speaker cable to have been repaired by a hack with the contacts so close to each other that a little bit of a bend causes a short. Yes, I've been guilty of this.

    Used prices of Axe2 & Xl when the 3 comes out

    I'm happy to say I had about 2 1/2 good years out of my MK2. There was a rough patch for a long while in the beginning with the AE thing though. I wouldn't even sell it for an XL if it weren't for the new long tenoned, hide glued, analine dyed custom + sign.

    Used prices of Axe2 & Xl when the 3 comes out

    What little time I get to myself to play I'd rather check out others great presets than build my own. Just tweak little. Like I said, as time goes on more and more will be XL only. I guess I'll place an order tomorrow. Although I will be bummed if an XL to 2 preset converter comes out.

    Used prices of Axe2 & Xl when the 3 comes out

    I never said anything about being "worried" about losing money. Obviously most who upgrade are going to sell what they have to fund the new purchase. I figured lose alittle now on my MK2 for an XL+ and alittle on the XL+ for the 3. I don't think my numbers are far off. It's not much of a...

    Used prices of Axe2 & Xl when the 3 comes out

    I'm thinking about upgrading to the XL+. The way I figure is I would only lose an extra 1-2 hundred in the long run when I need to sell the XL+ to fund the 3. If I can sell my MK2 now for $1800, I'd take about a $400 loss. If the XL+ can sell for $2000 when the 3 comes out, that's a $500 loss...

    Mono CLR or stereo EV/QSC/Mackie/Etc and New Vs. Used

    I used 2 ELX112P's for about a year at home. About a month ago I bought a CLR. Liked it so much ,(even just in mono), I bought a second last week. The EV's are ok but sound like a guitar through a PA to me. CLR sounds like a guitar through an amp/cab.

    Is it hard to get good tone with AXEFX using Carvin Neck Thru all Koa guitars?

    Although mine is a 92 DC200, (maple/ebony with poplar wings), I agree with this. It's always been a bright guitar which I thought were mainly the pickups and active electronics. Recently I stripped the finish, (metallic blue), and replaced the pickups and actives with just a volume, tone, and 3...

    MFC and silent physical switches

    MFC and silent physical switches

    Yea these cant be the same switches as the ones other users are trying rubber clamps on and stuffing foam in their units to kill the "clambering effect". There is just enough click to know when it clicked. Press them slow enough and I've noticed no click at all sometimes.

    No, I'm talking about the MFC Mark 2. These can't possibly be the same switches as the loud ones you guys are describing. These feel really close to the GC Pro switches from what I can remember when I had one.
