Wish Default Footswitch Layout Per Preset

I think it could be handy to have a default footswitch layout per preset. Ex. Preset 399 has clean/crunch/lead scenes. When I choose preset 399, the three footswitches default to Scene Mode. I have a preset 400 that is crunch Marshall, but in one song where i use it I have to switch to a...

FM3 Preset and Scene Select with Bandhelper

I'm coming from the AX8 and had Bandhelper for having set lists for each gig, pressing a song and it would send midi commands to change both preset and scene. I'm trying to do the same thing in FM3 but am stuck. I'm trying to select preset 401, scene 2. Here's what I've done: Added a new...

Firmware rollouts

I know there are still a ton of people waiting to get their AX8, but I thought I'd ask a question. I'm wondering if going forward that the roll out of new firmware will be that Axe II users will beta test, then they get the full release, then it gets ported to AX8? Or is the AX8 firmware going...

Synth help

I have an Axe FX II Mk1 and an AX8 and noticed that my synth patches didn't translate to the AX8 when I moved everything over. I can't seem to find any noticeable differences, maybe I'm just missing something. These synth patches were made by others years ago that were shared in the forums...

My first gig with the AX8

I had my first gig this past Saturday using the AX8; everything went great! I goofed up once trying to get to a patch for an impromptu song (I re-arranged patches from my Axe II to better suit the AX8; the layout differs from using my MFC and the Axe II), but all-in-all everything else was...

Migrating from Axe FX II to AX8, first impressions, notes, and questions

I received my unit on Tuesday last week, unboxed it, started messing with it, playing, sounded exactly like my Axe II as expected. I then fumbled a bit switching presets, scenes, etc, figured it would be wise to read the manual. After reading the manual it became much more clear how the F...

AX-8 as midi controller (like MFC) for Axe FX II?

I'm thinking about getting the AX-8 since I mostly play live, but I was wondering if I got it, can I use it as a replacement for my MFC when controlling my Axe-Fx II? Can the AX-8 be used as a midi controller for the Axe-Fx II when in the studio/recording? If so I could sell my MFC and help...

Music played from PC through USB/Axe is only one channel

When I plug my Axe into my PC to play along with/learn new songs, I only get the left side of the MP3. Granted, I am running my Output1 Left to my CLR, but I have my I/O settings to Copy L -> R. Some of the tracks I'm listening to have certain parts that are hard panned either left or right...

ART SLA-1, SLA-2, or Carvin DCM200L?

I'm new, been playing around with my Axe standard through headphones at home. When I practice with my band, I have a Marshall 1960A Lead cab. I am currently powering the cab temporarily with a Carvin 2000W amp from our PA system. We need that when we gig out for the PA, so I won't use that in...
