    Back in the saddle at last (Finally loving my Axe-FX again)

    It's always a pleasure to have an AXE FX around to play with. I love mine as well as anyone and have owned and played it all as far as gear and gas goes. I am currently using a Boss Katana 100 112 combo which I switch on and off the effects and amps of both the combo and AXE FX II with the 4...

    F-Switch Toggle Scene 1&2

    Ax8 latency

    I can confirm the lag problem with scene changes. My unit certainly has a noticeable lag when switching scenes with or without X/Y states in a scene or not.

    Gr-55 MIDI TALK

    FW 6.02 Scene Switching Delay

    Scene Switching Lag

    I wish setting the X/Y hold function would effect the lag of my scenes I use just for switching on my effects which is what I am using the scenes for. Disengaging it doesn't solve it. When I am switching scenes I am only switching one effect at a time not a chain of them.
