    an FX only Box?

    A small FX-Only Box? I was asked to find out if this might be a thing someday Cliff/Fractal would consider making. I told them (over at TGP) that I would ask. Thanks

    Midi routing EXTERNAL pedals- is there a better way?

    I have a few Strymon pedals in stereo I like to control via Midi in the Axe-FX III Mk2. I have found that in order to get the Strymon pedals at the correct volumes I have to turn the "Out-3" knob on the AFX all the way up while leaving the Strymon pedals around 1/2 way up. FYI- I was running an...

    A bit wasteful using the PC+'s this way, but it sounds great!

    I went from Helix to the AXE-FX III Mk2 and I kept the associated pieces of gear that went along with Helix, mainly a pair of Power-Cab +'s.

    FC-12 and AustinBuddy Live-Gold questions

    Hi- I'm "new" at this FC-12 setup stuff- I recently purchased the AB Live Gold collection and it sounds really good, but it's the scenes/setup I'm a bit confused on how to do the "right way". From what I've read and can understand via videos, each patch is setup using 8 "scenes" to incorporate...

    Installing AustinBuddy's 1000 live gold presets?

    So this may be old hat for some, sorry if that's the case. Once you DL the1000 presets (Live Gold Tonepack) from AustinBuddy, do you then place them individually in any unused slot? Or is there an installer that places them for you without an option? I just didn't want to over-write any Cygnus...

    Hi, I'll be setting up my Axe-FX III this weekend (YAY!!!) and need some advice from the pros here. Is there a common "normal" setup to use for the Axe-FX III? I mean to say, a reason why one would use this input and these outputs for hookup on 2 channels (stereo) on a board? And, the...

    I've been playing with a pair of QSC K 12s, and trying to dial in a few patches. I've noticed the 125, 250, and 500 hz sliders are the ones I always drop. To my ears the 250 and 125 are lowest, and the 500 is 6 db down or so. Setting by ears is one thing, but knowing its right is another. Any...
