    Hey guys, does anyone have experience with these? I reset my midi parameters to stock settings and am just trying to load one of the AFX III easy layouts. I get one button press that will change the unit and then no response and the fractal doesn't even see midi coming in. If I switch to my...

    Hey guys, Has anyone connected their FC via snake? Just wondering if this will work well enough(aka flawlessly)/ trying to get an idea of acceptable distances. I play the same stage every night, but the big connection box for FOH (for lack of a better term) is on the opposite side of the...

    Routing: external fx and two outputs

    This is what I was basically thinking. Just wondering if there was a better way. I'd rather not have to reach behind the asm, as my adjustments on the fly would need to be quick and hopefully go unnoticed by the audience. That's why I was considering a big knob style volume pedal that I could...

    Routing: external fx and two outputs

    Hey guys, here's a silly thing I want to do. To save CPU I'm going to try an external reverb pedal in my fx loop. The issue would be that I'd like to be able to run stereo to FOH when possible and send signal to my ASM-12 on stage and be able to control the asm volume independently. So far...

    Replace switches?

    About 3 of the switches on my mfc seem to get stuck internally. The reveal button takes awhile to respond and 14 and 16 seem to get stuck internally. The actual button comes up, but it seems the activation function (for lack of a better term) is still engaged and doesn't "let go" until I tap the...

    Axe-Fx Direct to FOH

    If you're using ears, that sound should be your main concern. You need to love what you're hearing, to play your best. Sound engineers have certainly dealt with worse signals and made them presentable! Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk

    Using momentary switch to increase reverb mix?

    Hey guys, I'm trying to get a little creative here with my options on the fly and am hoping this is possible. I use IA switch 11 as a delay hold and was hoping there's a way to make it work for ramping up a parameter like reverb 2's mix while I hold it down and return to default when it is...

  79. NickSwampMKE

    Do you keep guitars you don't really use, if they're nice/rare/expensive?

    One has some sentimental value (PRS Artist 22), so I will probably keep it forever and hopefully pass it down one day.

    Questions regarding using Scenes

    Delay when switching scenes/amps when using Drive pedal (not using X/Y)

    Thanks! I'd been thinking about just turning my IA4 into a controller to boost the gain, turn on boost mode, and bump the amp up a couple db, but I was just being stubborn! Did just that and now all is well!

    Delay when switching scenes/amps when using Drive pedal (not using X/Y)

    I think I'll try bringing it down to just two different amps, no x/y as I need to be able to switch between any level of gain seamlessly. Thanks for the advice, everyone! Glad to be here!
  88. NickSwampMKE

    Delay when switching scenes/amps when using Drive pedal (not using X/Y)

    Well, as it sits, the cpu is at 93 or 94%. So, if I'm going to switch amps, i need to have the xy state preselected in the scene before to allow for gapless switching?
  89. NickSwampMKE

    Delay when switching scenes/amps when using Drive pedal (not using X/Y)

    Would lowering the cpu draw by getting rid of the rotary help?
  90. NickSwampMKE
