Axe-Fx II USB audio channel count problem (macOS)

Sometimes core audio recognizes the Axe-Fx II as a 3 in/2 out device. Other times it’s recognized as 4 in/2 out. This truly boggles my mind. This seems to be a core audio issue on macOS (10.15) rather than a Fractal thing...I think. Anybody else experienced this? Any strategy to force 4/2 always?

Axe-Fx II USB audio channel count problem (WIN10 - ASIO4ALL)

Returning to WINDOWS 10 after a long time away in macOS land here. The Axe-Fx II's dedicated USB driver bootloader is installed on my system and appears appropriately when using the device with the FAS driver only. However, I hoped to use the Axe-Fx II as part of a macOS-style aggregated audio...

VG-99 + GP-10 USB Audio as digital source for Axe-Fx II XL+ over USB Audio (via DAW)

There are several threads here about failed attempts to use SPDIF to connect the VG-99/Axe-Fx II. Obviously, the different/locked sample rates proved to be an issue. I’ve posted about this issue on several forums throughout the process of trying to find an answer and I think this now is the...

iPad USB Audio/MIDI Driver for Axe-Fx II

I do not have sufficient privilege to reopen an old thread on this topic so am starting a new one. There’s much excitement over ARES porting to the II and that’s great but there are still a couple of ‘issues’ with the II that have been largely ignored by Fractal Audio. It’s a long shot but I’m...

I have an LF+ MIDI controller with an ext. expression pedal assigned to CC10 for In Volume. I frequently use the expression pedal as a volume swell/adjustment effect. I've just been experimenting again with routing dry guitar signals in parallel with the Axe-Fx II's 'wet' output over USB...
