    Gave my old Axe-II to my friend, I'm sure he will appreciate that sound. Found the patch here: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/the-axefx2-for-late-night-condo-practice-video.52241/#post-668664

    What amp parameters to change to get this aggressive distortion......

    Haven't ever really tried to describe wines or guitar sounds as eloquently as some more accomplished enthusiasts I have had the pleasure of running into, but if someone had a gun to my most precious and I just simply had to come up with some more or less descriptive words off the top of my head...

    Axe-Fx III 16.00 Beta 4 "Cygnus" Firmware - Public Beta

    Thanks! As any advanced parameters that I have adjusted, have been for a reason so I should not want them to be set back to defaults. I was worried there could be some hidden parameters that won't be set to best support the new modeling without a reset.

    Axe-Fx III 16.00 Beta 4 "Cygnus" Firmware - Public Beta

    Running the Axe-Fx III 24/7?

    There is a fan running constantly which means dust will keep accumulating inside the unit. Also the fan is not everlasting, it will probably start making noise after enough running hours. Cliff is comfortable with opening the unit and replacing the fan and worn out components if the need arises...

    Best way to make room for AustinBuddy's Tonepack?

    Hopefully III+ will have memory expansion slot so the unit could sell with a reasonable price tag, but those who want could purchase 1TB sd card and fit as many presets in there as they please. And also a feature to save the cab IR file(s) within the preset file so you wouldn't have to keep...

    Why 512 Presets?

    Would be nice if you could define a preset folder path on a hard drive, and when plugged in with USB, Axe-Fx III would map banks E, F, G, ..., Z to that folder and use it as a memory extension. USB has enough bandwidth that loading a preset from hard drive would take fraction of a second, the...

    Overheat reboots

    Not really a suggestion, but wondering, if creating another set of presets, a "low-cpu" versions of main presets, would help the issue. For some it might not be an option, but depending on the songs, in extreme situations live you could get away with a quite simple tones.

    How loud should the fan be?

    Is the fan speed always constant? I'm going to run my III as a sound card for my PC so it will be on while it's mostly quiet and I'm sitting 2 feet away from it. If the fan would go to a very low RPM mode when the CPU usage is low that would be great, I'd just use an empty preset when I'm not...

    Implemented Metronome

    And if you could adjust the tempo (and volume) using an expression pedal that would be great. And also load the tick sample(s) as wav files (they could be loaded into Axe as cab IRs so no big changes needed for managing the files).

    Is it quieter than the AxeFx 2 ? Does it contain a fan?

    Would be cool if the fans would turn off when the CPU% is small f.ex when not actually playing but running an empty preset and acting only as a soundcard. Even if the fans would be quiet they would still collect dust inside the unit.

    Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 7.00 Firmware Release

    Hi-gain presets (from Marshall hard rock tones to Engl metal tones) sound better with Q6 default advanced settings than Q7 to my ears. I did the copy-X-to-Y-and-reselect-X routine and every time the Y with Q6 settings was better. Haven't compared mid-gain or cleans yet. Anyone else think so too?

    Cliffs of Dover Patch/static question?

    Why do Europeans have to pay $3,300

    Maybe... if they send them one by one via regular mail to the reseller which I doubt pretty much. But yea, didn't know the US list price was net on top of which you need to add VAT yourself.
  57. I

    Why do Europeans have to pay $3,300

    I don't have the exact number right now, but it's around 3% or 4% which makes it less than $100. If you're referring to VAT, it depends on the country but is maybe ~20% on average. There's still $500+ per unit out there that resellers could compete with.

    Why do Europeans have to pay $3,300

    If there were two (or more) resellers in the same area, the price would automatically adjust to correct level and increase sales numbers. Probably some of the resellers have managed to get Fractal to sign exclusive reseller agreements though.
