    Controlling multiple axefx units live via midi

    Wasn't really sure where to turn with this question. Figured some of y'all likely have experience doing stuff like this. My band is trying to set up a live rig that will allow us to run backing tracks, a click and midi patch changes out of Cubase. I managed to figure out how the midi program...

    Unbearable noise... send help

    Wow thanks for the responses guys I have a lot to try. I'm going to get behind my desk tomorrow and start trying some different arrangements. I'll also have a look at the outlet my conditioners are running off of as well. As for the usb thing that was suggested, I'm not on a laptop. Just plugged...

    Unbearable noise... send help

    The path is just my guitar, straight into the axe, then the Axe goes analog out into a presonus central station monitor controller, the monitor controller then goes to a pair of Adam A7x powered monitors. Also using my Axe as the main interface via usb. I have two power conditioners plugged...

    Tried turning off essentially everything until I was left with the Axe itself and the power conditioner its plugged into. No change whatsoever :/

    Humbuckers. Modded EMG's to be exact. And yeah to answer Toopy14, I'm basically surrounded by electronics in here. Big monitor, PC, Speakers, Central Station, WiFi receiver, a TV in the back of the room. etc.. guess I'll start flipping things on and off and see what happens. Maybe try different...

    Also yeah I tried another cable and another guitar. Same result. It's basically none existent on clean patches but on any patch with gain/compression... well, you hear it.

    Unbearable noise... send help

    So I tried moving further away from my setup. Once I'm basically on the other side of the room, it goes away. As long as I also face 180° away from my gear. It doesn't complete disappear but it's definitely much less noticeable. It's also impossible to track anything from here so... yeahhh...

    Unbearable noise... send help

    Anybody have ANY idea what could be causing this ungodly noise? A gate is obviously useless when the noise is arguably even louder than the playing... 5153 Blue. Barely any gain. Bright Switch on (which does add a good amount of compression, at least on this model so the effect is greatly...

    Anyone know how to recreate the Born of Osiris lead tone?

    Sumerian posted stems from "Machine" before the album released. Idk if its being held anywhere official but I'm sure a quick google search for "BOO machine stems" or something like that will turn em up. I have the stems but not on me at the moment so just let me know if you can't find them and...

    Drop Bb chug patch

    Seriously the angriest amp out there. Such a beautifully smooth distortion paired with a ton of punch. As a side note the fractal is so bang on with the sim. I ran the real head through a load box and into the same impulses in the past and had almost identical results. So little of a difference...

    Drop Bb chug patch

    http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=55zH1YFAylA I'll ask for a pass on the mix as I'm basically mixing blind in my new, still untreated control room but its mostly to showcase the tone. Some info on the patch It's the 6160 (favorite sim by a mile) Standard tube screamer in front Running dynamics...

    Metal - PVH 6160 TEST

    When you record 4 guitars instead of the slightly more traditional 2. Pan 2 of them hard left and hard right, then pan the other two anywhere from like 60-80% right and left. I find by doing it that way it fills out the soundstage a little better but also if tracked tightly, can give the guitars...

    Metal - PVH 6160 TEST

    I have no idea how you would even manage tone match this as there is literally no part where guitars are alone. Buuuuuut if somehow you do, feel free lol I would encourage people to come up with their own tones though. Tone matching to me is fun and useful in the respect of getting a quick...

    Metal - PVH 6160 TEST

    When I get home ill grab the patch. Hopefully I remember to. It's tailored pretty specific to my guitar though. As far as the eq and what not. Also I have a custom set of strings with a super thick (.60) low string. So I'm practically using thin bass strings for a drop D tuning. Unsure how it...

    Metal - PVH 6160 TEST

    On the contrary, I actually haven't done THAT much. Just cut some mud and sucked out some harsh crap in the 2-5k area. In my daw the only thing applied was Slate VCC. Oh and its quad tracked. Thanks for the comment dude.

    Yo! Well as the title says, I was messing around with a new patch and was looking for some feedback. Please excuse the limiter crapping all over this. What do you think? https://soundcloud.com/aaron_ftt/axe-tone-test

    Tone match v.10 issue?

    Yeah distant would be the appropriate word. I can't place my finger on it but having tone matched something in V9 and then TM'ing the same thing in V10 had very different results. Eq wise it seems about the same but it seems something is going wrong in terms of how it's presented. Kind of like...

    SuperiorDrums, how?

    Yeah I have never owned superior and I don't feel I need it at all. Slate has a lot of good sounds but the real magic in my opinion is blending samples. I have a large selection of free samples that generous dudes have uploaded over the years.

    Ke$ha goes Metal...again!

    I've gotta ask because I have always wanted to do some of my own. How do you get the isolated vocal track? I've heard it can be an absolute nightmare getting it out but you have it super clean here. How do? By the way awesome track.

    Room eq wizard using axe fx

    Yeah. The axe fx is my interface. Trying to see if anybody else here has used REW with their axe fx acting as a sound card. That's all. I'm well aware the axe fx doesn't have an RTA... (yet) lol

    Room eq wizard using axe fx

    Wasnt sure where to post buuut, does anybody have any experience with using the axe fx and an external mix pre to set up their room measurement session? For what it's worth I'm using a presonus adl 600 mic pre. Not sure how to set it all up. What to change in I/O, what outs and inputs to use...

I pulled up axe manage and hit "import", selected the cab I wanted to use and then hit "Send to axe fx" but got nothing...

    5153 Blue metallll

    This is HIGHLY a wip. As evidenced by my extremely lazy copy/pasting, sub par mixing effort and horrendous playing :p However, I thought you guys might dig some of the tones ive managed to get going here. Each section has its own unique guitar tone but all of them are 5153 Blue variants. All...

    Being "new" around these parts, im not sure if im posting in the correct sub-forum so excuse me if im intruding here. To any rate, anyone using cubase 5 know how to reamp with the Axe2? I cant find anything online. Ive never reamped anything before let alone via USB so any input would be greatly...

    Windows 7 users. Connection issue

    To keep it short and sweet. I just got my axe and plugged it into the computer via USB (a cable that is fully functional by the way). Fired it up. Opened Axe edit and got nothing. I've tried installing the drivers found on g66 but to no avail. I'm not even sure where to begin. All I know is that...
