    New Vox AC10C1 Oct/2023

    I need to listen to the online demos To see how this little amp sounds. I have 2 different vintage JMI AC10 cabs (twin 2X10 speakers) and they are my favorite cabs I have ever owned.

    Have you ever been dragged along to see a band...

    For me I had way way low expectations for Rick Springfield. It was free and out in a weird club in the burbs but went along with it. Man this guy could play. 3 hour set and high energy show. Not bad for a dude that just turned 60 that year.

    Case Dimensions Help

    Honestly I just use the Temple Audio soft case for my Duo 34 and FC12. It’s still heavish but stout and very well made. I am able to fit 1 Fractal expression pedal and 1 Mission Engineering pedal for my wah. It is tight but it all fits with the Temple Audio soft case.

    BlueAmps Cabinets

    These look really nice and in a good form factor. If I understand correctly you can buy say for example a 1X12 but with a stereo power amp? You can then slave any other passive cab off of the stereo amp? I have an old JMI Vox AC10 cab with 2X10 speakers that is also a small form factor that I...

    Royal Blood

    I think the first duo to do this was Jucifer. They were a big draw when I lived in the Atlanta GA/Athens GA area in the late 90’s early 2000’s. Cool band and really heavy with female vocals. They also used stacks and stacks of amps. No Fractals then! Definitely worth the Google.

    I got the real AC-30 out of storage to try with the Fryette PS2

    I fired up my old AC-30 with Celestion Blues today after being in storage for 10 years. I’ve owned it since 1998. She fired right up and worked like a champ. It’s a Korg era TBX from 1993 and is hands down my favorite amp I’ve owned. I remember why I stopped gigging with it. Super heavy in the...

    Just ordered a Mimiq Doubler

    Spirit good tip on using the Mimic in mono mode. Mine has been collecting dust and never could gel with it in stereo mode. It was not bad but not really worth the hassle of hooking up. Do you use yours in a loop in the Axe FX Or do you use it inline? I am using a stereo power amp with stereo...

    Poweramp thoughts and Orange 2x12 v30

    I have several amps I use and they all have differences: Fryette PS2 - 50 watts but plenty loud. Mono only. Takes up two rack spaces. Sounds amazing with the Axe FX. Very lightweight. Well priced on the used market. Also doubles as as amp head attenuator and can add a post amp effects loop...

    Valve power amps?

    I have both the Fryette PS 2 and Fryette LXII. Both are great. If you are just running mono the PS2 is hard to be on the used market. It is also one of the best power attenuators I have used (I have tried several). It is also versatile and I like it with my old AC-30 to tame the volume and...

    I never have been wild about the AC-30 models on the Axe FX and I have tried. They seem stiff to me if that makes sense. I like the AC-20 (Morgan model) better and I think it is closer to my real Korg era AC-30. I found a really good IR that someone on the forum here had shot years ago with...

    Axe FXIII AES Routing

    Ok great thanks for the info. Do you know if reverb/delay spillover will be affected if I return from the Eventide back to the Axe FX? I read on the Eventide forum that it can cut off the tails if you run the loop through the analog I/O. The work around was to send to a external sub mixer...

    Axe FXIII AES Routing

    I have an external processor (Eventide) that I would like to use as an external effects loop via AES as a send/return. With the AES am I able to insert that AES signal into any of the 4 analog I/O channels? Thanks for the input. I don't have my Axe III with me otherwise I would just experiement.

    What amp, if did not have the Axe Fx III?

    I just received a Mesa TC-100 to mainly use with my Marshall 4X10 cab. I look forward to trying the 4CM with the FM9. I like how on the TC-100 it has a power soak on each of the three channels. Very versatile when I use it with some of my lower wattage cabs.

    Real Mesa TC100 vs AF3 into guitar cab - looking for advice

    Following this thread since I picked up a used TC100 for a good deal this week. Love my Axe III and FM9 but the only thing Fractal has not modeled is the heat put off tubes which is handy during the wintertime haha. In all seriousness what allured me to the TC1000 was the power scaling...

    Here is the final setup (Axe FX III + Tube Amps + Outboard gears)

    Yeah at first I thought the H9000 was a bit over the top until I saw everything it did. I primarily got it for my console in my mix room. The fact that you can do 4 independent stereo analog algorithms at the same time pretty much made my other analog outboard not needed anymore. It has 16...

    I used to run the TC2290 before I had the GCX switcher. I forgot that the 2290 also had the 5 analog loops (4 mono/1 stereo) which was cutting edge back then. That means when you run out of loops on the GCX you can insert more pedals into the 2290 loop. I can‘t remember if the 2290 loops are...

    Can someone help me understand the rear inputs on the Axe FXIII

    Thanks for the feedback. I did read page 31 of the manual. What was not clear is if I use Input 1 of the “Instrument” input since it has the secret sauce circuit. So I’ll try Instrument Input on the rear for the magnetic pickup output and rear Input 3 front be piezo pickup.
