    Just tried a Wet/Dry setup with 2 amps and the FX8

    Just tried a Wet/Dry setup with 2 amps and the FX8 - JCM800 with fx loop wet and a Tweed dry. This was amazingly easy to setup - the JCM800 is running as normal, so the left pre out of the FX8 to the amp input, and then the post outs to the fx loop of the JCM800. To add the 2nd amp, i just ran...

    Drive Settings

    this came from a discussion about the Ruckus, so here are my settings for a good sounding Ruckus: PG1 Drive - 3.00 Tone - 10.00 Level - 5.00 Mix - 100% PG2 Clip Type - Variable Slew Limit - 0.00 Bias - 0.00 Clip Shape - 5.00 PG3 Low Cut - 1160 High Cut - 9930 Bass - 0.00 Mid - -.50 Mid Freq -...

    Wish Default Settings on Drives

    As the drive models vary so greatly it's very time consuming to scroll through them all finding where each one sounds at it's best. A lot of the drives sound pretty terrible with the same settings as another drive that sounded great. It would be useful if they were set at a default "recommended"...

    Any plans for more Drives in FX8 firmware ?

    It would be awesome to have a Blues Driver, Klon, Angry Charlie to name 3 in the FX8. Does anyone know of any plans to add more drives in future firmware ?

    Any idea when the next Firmware update might be ?

    Really curious to hear a Klon type OD in the FX8 which will hopefully be in the next version. Has there been any indication of when the next firmware might be released ? Thanks

    Any way of recalling an effect setting from the FX8 unit ?

    I know you can save an effect when editing using the software editor, but is there any way to recall an effect or even copy one when just using the FX8 itself ? imagine you're at rehearsal or a show and you want the Ruckus exactly as you have it in another patch, but in a different one - how do...

    Clean with Post Level Boost Clipping after Fw3

    I run a solo scene for my main clean sound with just Comp and Reverb then boost the level with either the Post level on the scene or a GEQ with the level up. This worked great before the FW update, but now it's clipping and sounds nasty - any idea why or how to remedy this ? Thanks

    Scene Toggling

    I'm trying out a new setup using the new footswitch options, and i wanted to have the bottom 4 buttons as follows: Toggle S1/2 - Toggle S3/4 - Toggle S5/6 - Toggle S7/8 But when i go to assign a footswitch I only see the Toggle S1/2 option - did i miss something ?

    Using looper as a sampler ?

    Is there any conceivable way you could use the looper function to run samples ? Does the looper only save the last thing recorded into it ? Say i wanted to play a 10 second piece of audio triggered by the FX8

    Which are your go to drives ?

    So i've been playing around with the drives trying to find a good well balanced Blues Driver type OD into a clean amp, so far the closest i have come is the Full OD but it still has a very pronounced mid spike. What do you guys like for a good mid gain balanced OD ?

    Can you rename Scenes ?

    Sorry if this has been covered, but is it possible to rename scenes from S1/S2 etc to text ?

    Another noob question...

    When i select a Scene the stompbox mode stays for a second then the display shows the edit page of the last effect i changed. Is there a way to change this ?

    Auto-Wah ?

    Hi, my FX8 arrived today and i'm trying to get it set up quick for my rehearsal tomorrow. How do you engage the auto-wah ? Thanks

    FX8 on the way to me!

    I contacted G66 and it turns out they had one FX8 available that had been used for some pictures so I grabbed it! I'm looking forward to this unit a lot, from what i've seen and read it is the only system that will do exactly what I want. The idea is that it will replace a medium sized pedal...

    Starting to like the Diezel model after 2 years!

    I've never really bonded with the Diezel VH4 model in the Ultra but recently by tone shaping skills have jumped a long way and today i got the Diezel to sound truly massive and chunky in drop D, it's superb for Tool (as you would have thought) but also for other heavy stuff, been using the new...

    Will my SLA-1 drive a 200w EVM12L ?

    I've been offered a 1x12 Thiele cab with a 200w EVM12L that I would run as one side of a two 1x12 cab set up, the only problem is that my SLA-1 only puts out 100w per side - is this enough to drive the EVM properly or will it be quiet and sound like shit ? Thanks

    Need ideas for a nice lead patch

    So i have my AXE FX setup pretty well established now, Twin Reverb for cleans, Shiva for crunch, New Recto for high gain stuff and for leads i've been using the USA Lead which i believe is a Mesa MKIV. I really like a liquid lead tone with thick mids and mild highs, which is why i went for...

    Tried FRFR for the first time today, RCF 312A

    I've been using my Axe FX for over a year now with an ART SLA1 and a 2x12 with V30s, and i'm totally happy with this setup. Recently my band bought a pair of RCF 312As for vocals live and I borrowed one last night to try with my Axe. First impressions are better than I was expecting, I used...

    Uberschall Lead Clip - Dimebag :D

    I did a quick recording last night of my lead Uberschall patch playing the Cemetary Gates solo, the legato run is a bitch to get the timing, but you get the idea :D It's a PRS Tremonti II direct into Garageband http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1085453

    Do the Atomics give a better spread than a guitar cab ?

    I've searched and this has come up here and there but i'm looking for a definitive answer. I've always struggled with hearing my cab at rehearsal and on stage, I'm very tall and anything on the floor just gets nowhere near my ears! Recently i've been angling my 2x12 up like a wedge which has...

    Losing volume on clean patches through FX loop/Out 2

    Apologies if this has already been covered, I did search but couldn't find this specific issue. I'm running Out 1 to FOH and Out 2 (via FX Loop) to a 2x12 Cab through an ART SLA-1, cab sims on for FOH. The dirty patches sound identical though output 2 w/cab sims on as through Output 1 w/cab...

    First rehearsal with Axe-Fx last night

    So last night was the first time i've had my Axe-FX rig with a live kit at volume......wow! I have it running through an ARt SLA-1 power amp (solid state) rated at 200w bridged mono into a Randall 2x12 (160w). Well it was certainly loud enough, i had the Axe on 7.5 volume and the power amp on...

    Ernie Ball Volume problem

    i'm having a problem with EB volume pedal as an expression pedal for wah in the Axe FX, i'm 99% sure it's the 6166 Mono version. I've tried from the out to the ace fx with a normal patch cable - nothing I've tried a y cable from both in and out (tried switching them round too) and still...

    UK Power Amp Advice

    I ordered my Ultra today :D So I need a power amp, preferably 1U - I've seen all the other topics on this and know most people favour the ART SLA1 and SLA2. Currently I have a 1x12 16 Ohm Orange cab which is nice and light and doesn't take up too much space, so my question is: Will a 16Ohm...
