Selling the II and going back to ultra...

Before you make such a drastic move, try and play an Ultra before you sell your Axe 2. I think you'll immediately notice the improvements of the Axe 2. I loved the Ultra, but after playing the Axe 2 for a few months..it sounds digital to me. I would do what others are suggesting.. As soon as...

Says the Producer/Engineer: Your gain sounds are too compressed...bigger tone

Doubling is always essential in thick tone. You will not achieve it with one take. The days of van halen and the single take of guitar are over. Everything is multi tracked and heavily layered these days. If I remember correctly, the presets you mentioned do have a bit more gain than what's...

Gone back to FV2.00 for now. Anyone else?

This is the downside of software driven products. No matter what, as the product evolves, you are going to spend an enormous amount of time tweaking and re-tweaking Best advice is if you like what you're hearing...DON'T UPGRADE If you're in the middle of a project...DON"T UPGRADE If you're...

Weird phasing issues with fw 3.0

Thanks Yek That's probably what it is. But I'm a bit confused on what to do to fix this. The Das Metal setup has proximity at 4.5 (stock Mesa cab w sm57 mic sim enabled) and the Freidman setup has no proximity (RW greenback SM57 cap edge 2inches mic sim set to none) Do I need to reset the...

Weird phasing issues with fw 3.0

Hello I have this patch that has Das Metal setup panned hard left and Freidman setup panned hard right so I can record both amps at once and mix to taste in Logic. Worked great in fw2.0 but is totally phasey in fw 3.0 can't figure out why. Thanks

Vai Jemini Distortion Demo Tones

Just buy a Jemini Pedal I own one and it is very unique and VERY STEVE VAI. Actually, the left pedal was constantly on when playing leads on the Ultra. You know how the pick attack was a bit thin on that unit during lead playing? Not with this pedal! It added nice juicy overtones to thicken up...

BK's Plexi Presets

Thanks Great Patch. Is the multi comp common practice for you, or is this how you made the Plexi sound more modern. In other words to brighten it up.
