Drums….what do you guys use to make tracks

I'd also consider GetGoodDrums. Maybe one of their "One kit wonder" libraries if you don't need all the bells and whistles. I think they offer 14 day trials too.

underwhelming sound through headphones advice

I prefer a dry sound so tend to stay away from reverbs and, personally, I don't particularly enjoy the enhancer block. I give my tone a little more depth and "space" by blending in a second IR, at about half the volume of the main one, then using the distance control to move it further away...

[Solved] SPDIF question

I'm not sure if it's necessary but I set the Word Clock to SPDIF/AES IN when using SPDIF.

Misha's Presets for his Songwriting Masterclass.

From memory, they were both Mikko's. At least once he started with the more gainy stuff. I believe they were 'Bulb SM57 A1' and 'USA Djent SM57 A1' from Mikko's Bulb and USA Djent cab packs respectively.

Axe fx II interface

An interface is definitely the more flexible option. But, if all you're concerned about right now is jamming along to youtube, just use your Axe as the interface and adjust the level of youtube with the USB return level parameter in the IO menu.

Thunderbolt Interface?

I use a mac but have been using the Clarett 8Pre, reamping via SPDIF, for almost a year now with no trouble whatsoever.

Bass preset for metal?

I'd check this cabpack out if I were you: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/cab-pack-ml-usa-bass-based-on-mesa-powerhouse-ph1000.117954/ I struggled getting a good bass tone for a while and the this pack made a great starting point!

Cab Pack: ML USA Bass based on Mesa PowerHouse PH1000

Thanks Guys! Updating Axe-Edit has done the trick :) Awesome work Mikko, I've been struggling to dial in a good bass tone for a while now but playing around with these cabs/presets makes it effortless. That metal preset sounds like it was made for me! Fantastic stuff. Lewis

Cab Pack: ML USA Bass based on Mesa PowerHouse PH1000

Yeah, I don't use Axe-Edit very often but I think I'm doing it correctly. Click the 'Import' button then select any of the files in the Axe-Fx Preset-Cab Bundles. I've attached a couple of screenshots of this process.

Self Rebooting AXE FX II

I've experienced this twice now, without using Axe-Edit. Not sure if it's limited to the compressor block but editing that is what caused it for me. Specifically... adding a second compressor block, changing the type to 'dynamics' then attempting to either change the type again or disable the...

Try sticking a gate as the first block in your chain. Kills the squeal for me every time.

Trouble recording :S

Hey, you'll probably need to check that your axe2 is selected as your audio device in cubase. If you cant see your axe as an option you may need to install the latest drivers first - I had to do this with reaper. You can find the download here: Fractal Audio Systems - Support Lewis

Hi all, i'm becoming more and more interested in reamping. However, i could do with having a few things cleared up before i make any purchases. Firstly, i'm aware that reamping allows you to change the sound of your guitar at anytime, but can you make changes to your guitar sound while you...
