    AFIII Fevercoat - We're Gonna Make It Out

    Here's an upbeat original rock/metal track I'm still working on using the AF3. I'm using the USA IIC++ model for the distorted tones and a Double Verb Normal for the cleans. I love how easy these models are to get a nice sound from.

    How good is Fractal Tone Matching?

    I believe the intended use is to capture any differences between your personal amp and the model on the AxeFX. For example, I've seen people use it to capture the difference between the recto sim and their personal recto revision. I've also seen @2112 use it to capture the difference between...

    Cygnus Beta - first impressions

    Goodness gracious, that sounds 100% like someone mic'd up a cab in some room. I know it's just two clips, but this seems like an absolute paradigm shift for modeling.

    How accurate is Fractal's amp modeling?

    I just updated to 15.01 and was ready to settle down for a nice day of chasing new clean tones. I routed the Double Verb Normal through @2112 's Marshall TV2 cab, then ran it through the multitap tape delay. Before I touched a single knob, I had one of the best tones of my entire life. This FW...

    Axe FX III mkII - will my mk1 get left behind with firmware updates? Answer - clearly not. Thread edited due to excessive negativity from one person.

    It was mentioned on the board a few months ago that you were waiting on a patent approval for something even better than profiling technology. Will whatever this mystery tech is require this new model?

    DI Bass tone ideas

    To piggyback on this, would it be possible to run two guitars and a bass through the AxeFX 3 at once if you keep the amp blocks to just the guitars? Feels like you could do a bass > DI+Pedal mix > optional IR player, but my 3 is at our practice spot :(

    AFIII [Blackened Death Metal] Demo In Progress

    Hey all, Thought I'd throw a blackened death metal demo out there for fun and see what you all think. For the recording I'm using a LTD MH1000, the Axe FX 3 and a C++ tone that I based on a @2112 tutorial. I haven't mixed this thing yet at all or recorded a solo, but I'm kinda surprised by how...

    Is arrived the time for Axe-Fx III to profile an amp?

    Since we're throwing our guesses into the wind: Something that's like profiling but involves turning all the different controls while profiling so that the knobs behave like the actual amp, rather than the weird EQ stuff Kempers do. Or maybe you set each knob to different points and then it...

    Am I setting my Axe-Fx up wrong, or is something wrong?

    Thanks for posting the video! Love your PRS, absolute stunner. Do you get the tones you want and expect when playing a regular amp and cab? Have you ever gotten a recorded tone you love outside of using the AxeFX? Sorry if I missed you answering this already in the comments. It's very clear...

    Periphery patches

    Misha posted a few videos going over his creative flow recently, and you can see a few patches on screen via Axe Edit 3. It looks like he used some IRs from his cab packs, but those exact IRs are already stock on the AxeFX 3. What stood out to me is that he's still on FW 1.18.

    Closed Tone "Freezing"

    One of the most amazing things about the Axe-FX is Fractal's constant drive towards making things better. However, this constant drive can create an issue where dialed in patches may require small-to-large adjustments any time a new FW rolls out. This is awesome for dialing in new sounds, but...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 4.03

    I for one support this DevOps-y mentality. Cliff can setup a CI/CD pipeline straight into my Axe and push every single code commit to my box if he wants :cool:

    Implemented A way to group factory/legacy IRs by cab manufacturer

    This is a super fair response and I can immediately see both the potential programatic and legal implications of using the "Manufacturer" name, so that wouldn't be possible. However If I were to set this up, I'd probably add two new filters for the "cute code names" like "Brit" and "Cali", and...

    Implemented A way to group factory/legacy IRs by cab manufacturer

    Oh geez, how embarrassing! I didn't even know I could push enter on the cab selection :eek: Is there any way to filter by "make" that I'm missing? I'm seeing filters for cab sizes, but an additional level for the cab make would be great too!

    Implemented A way to group factory/legacy IRs by cab manufacturer

    I love the thousands of cabs that come with the unit, but they are difficult to navigate through if I'm not using Axe-Edit. It feels like most of the cabs can be organized by speaker configuration and then manufacturer. For example, you'd go to the cab block and select "4x12", select "Recto"...

    Replaced by a Pod 2.0 Bean

    Wow, are you me? My highschool band used that thing and I remember being so excited about the quality of our recordings at the time. Absolute nightmare going back and listening to them now, but that device is entirely why I got into recording (and ultimately Fractal) so I can't be too mad!

    Tone Match Problem

    I've been having a similar issue trying to tone match old recordings of my Axe FX Ultra. I'm sending out a single unprocessed channel from my DAW via USB into the tonematch block (with the appropriate inputs configured) and the TMs always have a certain level of tinnyness/honkiness, and sound...

    Three Amp Blocks?

    I love the idea because it would benefit my (admittedly lazy) workflow. My main recording patch has both my guitar and bass rig, and I leave both plugged in at the same time so I can just pick up and go. It would be nice to have a third amp and cab sim so I could plug in a second guitar and...

    AFIII Killswitch Engage - The Arms of Sorrow (Cover)

    Lucas: Yeah, the vocalist is great! I love the dedication the community has to making fun DIs. Thanks, I'll definitely play with adding more gain. My last Axe FX was the Ultra, so I get a bit worried about "the fizz" when I add more gain, but obviously the 3 is worlds better. Time to play...

    AFIII Killswitch Engage - The Arms of Sorrow (Cover)

    Working on finding a metal sound that I can use for my own songs, so I figured I'd spend some time reamping DI stems now that Axe Edit is out so I can ramp up faster. Not quite where I want to be yet, but I feel like I'm getting closer! DI stems are from Ultimatemetal.com user Icem4n. Drums...

    First AxeFX Tone Test (Post Hardcore/High Gain)

    Axe FX > Cheapo M-Audio box > Ableton Live 8 using only in-the-box plugins :) Not currently in a band, but my singer/songwriter friend and I are using this to hopefully put one together. Goal is to modernize "post hardcore" while cutting out the "emo" elements. He's a killer singer, so I'm...

    First AxeFX Tone Test (Post Hardcore/High Gain)

    Preset #329 ;) Slightly edited EQ and master volume. I really like the sound of that amp sim and cab combo though, so little editing was required. The patch is a bit fizzy stock, but lowering the gain and cranking up the master makes it rock a bit more. Used a bit of delay and reverb on the...

    First AxeFX Tone Test (Post Hardcore/High Gain)

    Heya folks, Here's my first tone test with the AxeFX. The track is using the Mach IV sim and S2.0 drums. I haven't really arranged anything here, just dumped some ideas for a track as they've been coming. Any suggestions would be welcome!
