    FM9 and FC12

    I currently use the Axe-FX III and rjm Mastermind GT22. I am contemplating the move to an FM9 & FC12 but was dreaming up a configuration I have not seen anybody else use (there's probably a reason why). I'd like to stack the FM9 on top of the FC12, but staggering them so just the FC12 main...

    Wah is stuck on

    My wah got stuck "on" at a gig Saturday. It was working fine for the first set, but when I used it, it would not bypass. I had to power cycle the machine to reset it. I'm using a spring loaded Mission pedal. I've got an Axe-FX III still on FW 16.04. Even when I click the bypass button in Axe...

    Presets no longer start at 001

    I shuffled all my presets around using Axe-Edit III/Manage Presets and deleted a few that I was not using. I copied my main "kitchen sink" preset from 397 to 001 and now my rjm GT22 doesn't start at preset 001... it starts at preset 004; using the bank down selector takes it to bank 1 and it...

    macOS Catalina

    I have resisted the upgrade to Catalina due to threads about issues with this OS. My main rig is a III, but I kept my II XL+ and a II for backup rigs. I am currently experiencing no issues with macOS Mojave.... is it safe to install the new OS, or should I just ignore the update notifications...

    Permission Denied!

    I am backing up my III and made it thru the 1st step (System + Global Blocks + FC), but as soon as it starts on Preset Bank A, it stops and gives me the Permission Denied error message. I've tried 3 times. What do I need to do?

    Laptop in rack

    I'd like to add my Macbook Pro to my rack to run Axe Edit III and to use a soft synth controlled with a Keith McMillen 12-step. Any suggestions on how to mount a laptop securely but also have it be removable? I'd like to avoid using Dual Lock because I'll occasionally need to take it out and...

    IAs don't change

    Was trying to setup a local button page on my rjm GT22 for a special preset and something didn't work right, so I reloaded my settings from a previous save. All is good, but IA states are not changed when I switch scenes. I'm using an Axe-FX III (6.04). I recall there is a setting to make IA...

    Sharp popping when engaging TM block

    I've got a "kitchen" sink preset that works pretty well for me. But I recently added a Tone Match block for acoustic sounds and I get a glitchy pop when I switch to the scene with the TM block. There is no channel changing on any block in any of the scenes. Scene 6 is the TM block and it has a...

    Popping when changing from clean to dirty

    I've got a bit of a pop when changing scenes, mostly from clean to dirty and I don't recall this happening with my II. Single amp, no channel changing, under 80% CPU, on 3.01. Is this a "just live with it" situation?

    Name timeout

    Saturday night, my MFC locked up on a preset and nothing would change no matter what button was pushed. I could turn off LEDs for individual FX, but it did not bypass the effect.

    Stereo to mono

    My band scored a gig opening for the Romantics tomorrow. Backline is provided, but I am sure the provided amp will be less than desirable - and I no longer have any pedals.
