    Basic vs tweaking under the hood

    I'm getting back into playing, and cannot believe how good the Axe is sounding with Quantum...it makes this bedroom warrior a real happy fellow! That being said, my favorite amp brand has always been Mesa Boogie (I owned a Studio Pre/VHT, a Roadking V2, and finally a Mark V). I got rid of all...

    Axe volume vs usb volume

    I've got a strange issue where the volume of my guitar signal is extremely loud, whereas audio from my macbook is a whisper. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

    Headphone for monitoring

    I'm using headphones when I play/record. I use USB into my Macbook Pro and my DAW is Logic X Pro. I am using the Axe to monitor my guitar rather than use the monitoring in Logic, but in order to get the levels loud in Logic I've had to tweak my patches. That is all find and good, except that now...

    Scene selection and revert?

    Can anyone tell me if it is possible (and how it would be done if it is possible) to do the following: I have IA switches 1 -5 programmed to select Scenes 1-5. Because of how I want my scenes to work, 1 is main rhythm, and 5 is solo. Is it possible for me to activate scene 5, and then go back...

    Live tone pointers

    So I've got a gig this weekend (happens as often as an eclipse), and now that we have v13 and UR Cabs, I have a question for you know-it-betters of the forum. :) Is there a need to add PEQ to a patch to block the high and low frequencies if I were to play direct through FOH? Are there any...

    Hey can anyone tell me how to upload FW13 over usb as I don't have any way to send the data over midi cable? Or can someone tell me how to send the FW through fractal bot?

    How to re-program the Axe?

    Several months ago I had an issue with my axe when after upgrading FW and rebooting, all the lights on the Axe would light up but not boot at all. This problem was solved by Fractal by me shipping it down to them and them re-programming it. Once again, tonight I've upgraded FW with both the usb...

    Controlling gain through an expression

    I've been fooling around with this and have gotten results...just not the ones I'm looking for. What I'm trying to do is have a dirty tone, and roll off an expression pedal to get a completely clean tone. I have a drive block pushing my amp block, anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!

    Understanding programming the Axe

    Hi all, I'm trying to understand how to do a programming change and would appreciate the insight of those who are a lot more versed in the ways of the Axe... Here's the scenario: in my preset I want to be able to use IASw 5 to turn on my Filter, Phaser, and Drive blocks, and switch my delay...

    Question about Axe Edit

    This might be moved, but I'm curious as to why when I make modifications to my presets in AE, the sound will completely change and I'll have to reboot my AFII?

    AFII doesn't start

    After not having used it for about 3 months, I tried to fire it up for a guy who wanted to buy one of my guitars. To my amazement the screen and front lights all went on, and stayed on. Nothing else happened. Anybody know what could be the cause and does this sound like an issue for Fractal tech...

    V7 and new amps....

    I've upgraded and recieved no errors, yet when I look at the list of amps in Axe Edit, I cannot see the Dizzy, or any other new amps. I've rebooted my computer and the Axe a couple of times. The only thing I have not done is update the presets with the files Cliff posted along with the V7...

    Patch sound changed after Axe reboot

    Howdy, I created a patch based off of Mark Day's HBE preset. I added a bunch of effects to this new preset but left Mark's setting as is while I worked out what I did and did not want as far as effects go.... I have attached a screen grab of this new layout. The reason why I added so many...

    Position of Preset locations on MFC?

    Is it possible to assign the preset switches to occupy switches 11-15?

    3 expression pedals

    Howdy, I've got a Mission SP-1, and 2 Boss FV-500's. The Mission acts as a wah, 1 FV is a volume, and the other is an whammy/misc. I have the volume plugged into Exp 1, the whammy into 2, and the wah into 3. How should I have these set up in the Axe and the MFC? Right now I can get the wah to...

    First gig coming up and freaking out

    Well I have my first gig with the axe this Friday and I have to admit I'm freaking out. I had a rehearsal last week with my band and my bassist had nothing but complaints on how there was no attack and that the guitar disappeared. From my standpoint, I know I was buried because my sound was more...

    Slaving amp heads....

    I'd like to know if it's possible to slave the preamp section of one amp into the poweramp section of another amp, a la Metallica (Mk IV into a Marshall)?

    Wah acting more like volume pedal?

    I am trying to get my Mission SP-1 up and running 100% after having had a bout of Lazyitis, and though I can get the SP1 to function, when I roll back on the pedal the volume goes down to 0. What is it that I have done wrong?

    Quick Poll......Axe Fx Mode ON or OFF?

    Sorry if this has been asked already, but what is your preference when using the MFC?

    New to all this programming....

    Hello all!! :) I recieved my II about a month ago, and took the plunge (with the blessing of my better half) and purchased the MFC on Monday and recieved it today (Fractal is AMAZING!!). The thing is, I am absolutely TERRIBLE at understanding how to program the MFC. Funny thing is, I'm a...

    Can one word sum it all up?

    I'd like to think "Wow" would be the only one I would need, but that would be too easy. I just got my axe II in the mail today (Thursday), after having ordered it Tuesday. The first "wow" moment came when I received my "your product has shipped" email came a day later. The biggest wow came when...
