    Changing string gauge on 8 string

    Hello All! hope everyones doing well, been a while since I posted, but I know info here is good :) I got an 8 string strandberg that came stock with what I believe are 9's or 8's (I believe 9-80), and I want to up them to 10's (10-74). In this situation, should I bother with adjusting the...

    SOLO 100 = AWESOMENESS

    The 100 was my go to on the ultra, then I stuck to the HBE for the longest time with the II until cliff posted his Plexi50 dimed patch, which was my latest go to for the last 2 years now I believe. But I just checked, and yes, the SOLO 100 does kick some excellent ass right now, might have to...

    Morphing Amps between amps in a patch

    I use dampening on my patch (to go from clean to lead amp) - it adds a slight delay in the sweep making it more smooth and easier on the ears. I found the curve parameter doesn't help too much, unless you have a lot of sweeping range on your pedal. I use only crybaby pedals so the sweep is very...

    Ableton Live plugin as decent alternative to Axe FX II

    What's your string gauge? Manufacturer?

    I use Ernie Ball Power Slinkies nickle wound 11-48 on my 25.5" hot rod strat, and my gibson - I like the strings, and can get them at a good price on ebay for 12 pack. Wouldn't mind trying 11-54's, but I have a feeling they would be too 'boomy'.

    Can the Axe send preset data on start up?

    As the title says, I was wondering if there is any way to get the axe to send the present data, namely, sysex preset data on start up? It would definitely help my teensy/arduino based foot controller as it is powered on before the axe and sends a request when turned on. (it is powered from its...

    Programmer uses Python to graph what songs were recorded using click tracks

    I strongly agree with this - when trying to make midi beats I as well try to maintain variations in tempo.

    MIDI_GET_PRESET_NUMBER byte order

    The reason the bytes may seem backwards is because most of the Sysex uses little endian (LSB first) (I think this is the correct notation... if I am wrong please correct me!!), so you have to shuffle the 2 bytes around (bank number and preset number): if (byte[6] == 0x00) { // BANK 1...

    MIDI CC knob controller in stompbox format

    MIDI CC knob controller in stompbox format

    You could build your own using a Teensy board with midi IO. The Teensy can read up to 20 pots I believe. You could house it all in a Hammond Stompbox style enclosure too.

    Sorry! I was wrong, just never seen that convention, I guess the statement sets Tuner_Pressed to equal the NOT of Tuner_pressed, so this would me to believe it is a bounce issue, where there's not enough delay between polling cycles of the switch.

    I have a feeling its the implementation of "Tuner_Pressed =!

    Can't Recieve Tuner Sysex

    Also, you should turn off midi thru, as it will bounce back all incoming midi from Axe back to the axe, clogging both your teensy and axe... and you don't need tuner request from Teensy... just need to make sure your code listens to correct sysex.

    Can't Recieve Tuner Sysex

    what midi library version are you using? How are you reading the sysex values? I've been able to get this to work with 3.2 with simply reading off the sysex value (though, it should be well filtered)... have not had a chance to use with 4.2 Also, this should go under "Other Midi Controllers"...

    ableton push pad and live

    I've got push, and It's really fun to use, still getting used to it, and Ableton for the matter, but I found I really like ableton in a practice sense: I've taken all the backing tracks I've made (in Midi) and dropped them into tracks per instrument, and linked each section of the songs together...

    My Handy Dandy $1.50 Axe Fx II mod

    Non-gigging players sound off!

    I got into guitar because of a friend of mine, and never thought I would play live, so it was always a hobby for me, so I've never gotten to gig (yet?) but I end up jamming occasionally with a friend who intends on playing shows. Maybe Within a year I will get a chance at a first gig, but guitar...

    To build or not to build, that is the question...

    To chime in, I was considering getting a Suhr Modern, but for me it was too expensive, so I made a custom strat from Warmoth with the toppings I wanted instead. Here's what I think: Buying a Suhr (or more or less luthier built guitar): Pros: - High quality - almost completely any toppings...
