    Level Drop in ULTRA

    @JasonE : I think its global, as it does not matter which blocks are active, I would say... I found a more or less overriding gate in the Layout - page 3 called GATE, WHICH IS NOT PART of the effect blocks. I am testing it and seems fine. Is there another more global or overriding location...

    Level Drop in ULTRA

    Dear Forum, The input level drops significantly during the ringing out of the guitar at a certain point. I first thought, it could be a gate, but the sound is still there, just with a lower level.... It sounds like a leap of around 3dB I would say not being continuously.. How to fix?? You can...

    Passive / Active Acoustic Mic into AXE III

    How to set up a mic´ed acoustic guitar with the AXE III, no mixer involved. I prefer condensers, but would take the dynamic route either, in case. Plus, I sing into a second mic. The whole thing should be recorded digitally with the USB interface options

    Vai 2023 Setup

    The thing is, if you would add latency somewhere(!) in the chain, it does not really matter if your pre amp is 0 ms for tone shaping and feel, I would assume. Key question is, how the Rig would achieve a 0ms signal through the signal path as some modulation FX traditionally are run in series...

    Vai 2023 Setup

    thx for your reply: So is there a chance for a analogue 0 latency setup only using fx blocks (or at least lower latency values), when in series with the AXE? Does the AXE allow a 0 Latency slaving through of the synergy signal (Maybe in parallel, merely adding the FX)

    Vai 2023 Setup

    Dear Forum, These insights for a hybrid live rig are cool : Now How is the signal chain run in detail? Is it 4CM or Instrument input at the AXE III? Main aspect is how to achieve a 0 Latency Setup with the synergys. Is that possible at all here? I guess you need a 100% Wet Signal if using...

    Great Andrew. The UAD stays, as I need Vocal recordings. it was my fault to see that the AXE does not work as a dedicated Audio Interface for the mic department plus I learned it is fixed to 48kHz. Okay.

    0 latency monitoring an additional external line signal

    If you run a additional line signal (mic preamp) into the AXEIII: Can you monitor and record this particular additional input with 0 latency AND record guitar tracks with the dry DI path?

    Hey sixstring: My english is not the best: I just would turn the tweeter off on the volume knob. To be clear: If I turn the Atomic´s tweeter off, do I have an old school guitar cab frequency wise (regarding the miking) in your experience? Would you think needing the tweeter for raw Electric...

    My Atomics (2010) seem to have a certain amount of bottom end, which I would have to make the reference based on this situation. They don´t sound(!) linear compared to the DI sound.
