    USB Audio only playing through left channel?

    Having a strange issue and I'm sure I just messed something up but I'm only getting audio output from my computer on the left side. If I select output 1-2 in Logic, I get all the audio on the left, if I select output 3-4, I get everything from the right. Did I screw something up in the I/O menu...

    Block Libraries for Effects?

    Is there a place where people upload blocks of effects? For instance, a Keeley type delay already dialed in etc. I'm looking around on axechange but don't see anything like that.

    Newbie needing help with setting up delay hold

    I want to assign a switch on my FC6 to engage the hold function on the plex delay and turn it off. I'd like to be able to hold something, switch to a lead tone to noodle around, and turn it off or re-hold to change the chord. I've got no idea how to set this up. Any thoughts?

    Plugging in FC6 Shuts down AxeIII

    I just got my FC6 and when I plug it in using the XLR, the AXE III instantly loses power and shuts off. Once I remove the XLR from the faslink port, everything functions as normal. Am I missing something?

I'm not looking to make any money here, just simply want to give my spot to someone that has been waiting. Is there any way to do that w/o it voiding the warranty? EDIT: Emailed FAS and...

    Looking for good Headphones

    I'm just wondering if any of you can recommend some good headphones to play the axe through? I'm not looking to use these 100% of the time but I'd like something that will sound good and as accurate as possible with headphones. Price doesn't matter too much but under $4-500 would be ideal. Thanks!

    Coming back to FAS and thinking about an AX8

    Hey guys, I used to be pretty active here and had an AxeFx II but I had to sell my gear/guitars to fund the rest of my university units. Well I graduated, am starting a funded PhD, finally bought a guitar, and am on the waitlist for an AX8! My question is based around seeing a lot of people...

    Cheapest way to reamp on a Mac

    Hey guys, really simple question here.

    Maybe a dumb question but losing one side when playing back mono

    Best cheap audio interface for reamping

    I have a very simple question. What is the cheapest interface that I can use where I can monitor my recording while tweaking paramaters for reamping. My only complaint about the axe is that you can't reamp through it and not have the entire mix be affected by the processing. I don't care about...

    Rackmount Preamps X2 V10

    I just discovered this factory preset and with a couple tweaks its just awesome. It's tight and crunchy like a modded marshall but with all the high gain fun. I just tracked this super quick and soundcloud just destroys the quality but I figured I'd throw it up. I'm loving this preset!
