How accurate is Fractal's amp modeling?

For stand-alone guitar, I prefer the first "A" sample. More meat on the bones, so to speak. "B" would probably be easier to mix on a typical rock track.

The first sounds a little thicker in the low-mids. Would not be surprised if it's the AF3.

Huge difference between FR/FR and PA

If I was gigging, I'd create all my presets with outputs 1 and 2 in parallel, probably with EQs as the last block for each. That way I could separately control my FRFR stage volume and the send level to FOH, and even provide some EQ to the FOH engineer if he/she wanted it.

Rick Beato on string gauge

I enjoy most of Rick's content, but this video seems incomplete to me. I think he should expand the string gauge tone discussion to include, at a minimum, clean vs dirty, pickup selection, and pick selection. He and Rhett have talked about some of this stuff in other vids, but never have put it...

Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 12.00 Public Beta #2 (Beta 3)

IMO the sound RT got on his early albums is iconic, emblematic of an era that is sadly gone but for the memories. His tone on Long Misty Days sounds like a thousand Marshalls on 11 all directed at a single helpless mic, overloaded and on the verge of destruction. There's not much in the way of...

VAI hears 1/1000th of a second latency in Modeling (No Way cheap shot)

I own two SYN-2 chassis along with five Synergy and three of the old Egnater modules. They sound good. But since I bought my AF3 they are all on the shelf, unplugged. Will I ever use them again? Probably. Maybe. Do they sound better than the AF3? No. They simply sound different, that's all. The...

Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 11.02 Public Beta #5 (Beta_4)

Flanger changed my life. So did phaser, and wah. Oh, and fuzz too. The first time I heard Hendrix play Johnny B Goode on Hendrix in the West (fuzz, wah) or Page on The Rover (phase 90) or EVH (MXR !) on just about everything, I knew what I had to do- play guitar. Don't underestimate the power...

Preset Management and Organization

This is an excellent discussion, thanks to everyone contributing. UPS delivered my new FX3/FC12 yesterday and between FW11 and the new/updated presets my head is spinning. I have until Saturday night to learn the hardware, create presets, and get my set list together. I’m not ready to delete any...
