    What´s with the Wizard W800 - is it just a super Marshall? Can we get close with Axefx3?

    I always thought it would be helpful to have something like that in the Global settings where you can increase or decrease the value, so if you're playing quieter, you lower it and if playing louder, increase it. You'd just have to make sure you set it to Zero when recording or have it auto set...

    Scam websites selling Maine Coon cats

    I always hated cleaning cat litter and never trusteed letting cats outside due to safety and health reasons and decided I'd stick with dogs and never get a cat again. Then my wife came along with 3 cats and now 4. A couple years ago there was a thread about cats and someone mentioned the auto...

    Windows 10 Automatic Updates are Baffling and Infuriating

    I wrote a batch file startup script that pops up a window that asks if I'd like to disable updates because there's nothing worse than wanting to quickly record some music ideas but can't because updates are downloading or installing in the background and using tons of processing power. I always...

    Liquid Foot Forum

    I still use my LF+ 12+ and Pro+ and haven't had any issues using them since the newest Firmware v6.32 with the Axe-Fx II or Axe-Fx III but also have a RJM Mastermind GT 22. The past couple weeks I've been trying to setup my RJM MMGT22 to get it to do everything my LF+ can do. I'm trying to sell...

    Guitars: how many and brands?

    What model is that? I have a Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HH HT M QM Purple Phaze which is one of the best guitars I own. I really like how easy it is to adjust the truss rod and how the output jack is on the back of the guitar, so the guitar cable isn't at a right angle when wrapped around the guitar...

    Guitar Center Ghost Town

    @Mr.Modeler was replying to my post, which isn't about the Pro Coverage but regarding the Pro Coverage, I almost always buy it because it covers wear and tear which most warranties, including manufacture warranties, don't cover. I admit I buy a lot of low to mid priced gear and having Pro...

    Guitar Center Ghost Town

    The problem is that GC caused a lot of local music stores to close because they couldn't compete with their low prices and return policies. Before GC, most of the local stores in my area didn't allow returns, even if the item was DOA, and then you had to fight with the manufacture about their...

    Legacy Liquid Foot Pro: Cant get the editor to work :( Help?

    This is probably the only option. Also, I don't use MAC but if you have access to a Windows PC, you can install whatever old version of Java the Editor needs.

    Wish a true challege for Cliff... Metasonix

    Or if you want to make all your presets sound like Metasonix gear, disable Cabs in the Global Settings ;)

    Input gate or gate block ?

    This is the same reason I use the Gate Block and one of the main reasons I bought the Axe-Fx II because I don't know of any other modelers that have a gate with a side chain. I also wrote some tutorials on using gates and they're listed at the bottom of the Wiki Noise gate page under "More...

    Recommendations for headphones with good bass response

    I bought Sony WHXB900N headphones for half price on Amazon and they have loads of bass but I didn't realize they only work with Bluetooth which has noticeable latency. When you use them with a cable, it disables all the enhancements and sounds terribly muddy and no bass response. I'm still...

    FS 7 String Guitars

    The guitar doesn't come with a hard case, so I have to contact UPS and FedEx to find out how much they charge to package and insure it because in the past they've always denied damage claims when I've used my own packaging, even though they clearly caused the damage from negligence and the box...

    The Red ESP LTD H-207 is in almost new condition. It has a small chip on the body that's barely noticeable and it came with it new. That model is not made anymore but the ESP LTD Brian "Head" Welch SH-207 FM is very similar and is $600 new. https://www.espguitars.com/products/21875-sh-207
