    Such a bummer. He ran the engine room of the band. Always admired his playing, his tone, and his style. He had it all dialed.

    Anyone happily using a wired IEM setup?

    Ian, Here's another option you might want to take a look at. http://www.jumpaudio.net/ixm.html Basically it's a single cable with a 5-pin XLR that attaches to the belt pack. You end up with just one cable, much like a regular guitar cable, but with a 'Y' splitter at the end that takes care of...

    Danny..... super well done. Everything, from soup to nuts, sounded great. Your voice has a very unique character to it. Perfectly suited for that track.

    All of a sudden, Expression pedals stop working mid song, axe fx skipping/cutting out

    I've got a multimeter at work. I'll give that a try Monday. I've got everything mounted on a NYC pedal board which is all wood and fabric, so I don't think I've got a ground issue. Everything seems to be working fine now. We're packing up for our gig tonight so I won't be able to check this...

    All of a sudden, Expression pedals stop working mid song, axe fx skipping/cutting out

    Thanks GiRa. I did check the cables with a cable tester. TRS of course. And I opened the pedal and checked all the soldered joints and sprayed electrical contact cleaner on the jacks, joints, and switches. I have no idea on how to check the potentiometer.

    Prior to reading this thread, I never really got on with the Soldano. Interestingly, after trying some of the settings others had success with, I was still well off the mark. But then I switched cabs to the F103: 4x12 Basketweave TV Mix and things started to come alive. Transformer match at...

    QSC K10's or 12's with my AX8?

    I ran with the QSC's, both K10's and K12's for quite a while. I still have them. I also found the K10's sounded better to me than the K12's. Eventually I picked up a RCF NX12. This was a measurable improvement over the QSC's. A couple years ago I bought the Atomic CLR. This was another dramatic...

    My general thoughts on Axe Edit and the Fractal Approach.

    With so many updates lately, I got a little behind the curve and was getting a little frustrated trying to keep my presets dialed. Then your message reminded me of the Xformer Match. I hadn't used that it a while. Just a little tweak to the 0.78 range and I was right back in business. That's an...

    Hey Redd, I went through a similar experience. I was running the K12's way back when, but then I found I preferred the K10's better.

    Preset Output Level Not Returning to Saved State

    Auto Engage Smoothness

    My idea was to transition from a rhythm crunch tone to a lead tone via an expression pedal. The drive level on the drive block increases the gain and the GEQ adds about 3db of boost along with a slight lift in the mids. I've seen seen several other Axe FX users set it up for the same purpose...
