    Cut through the mix: something I do not understand

    I read that to avoid being lost in the mix, one should reduce gain and be very cautious with effects, namely reverb and delays. I went this way and must say it helped a lot. But I miss what delays and reverb bring into the texture. Then I see that Leon, Burgs, Fremen‘s live patches are excellent...

    Momentary switch question

    I received my FC-12 one week ago. I would like to set a Phaser momentary switch in the Perform lay-out. (Meaning that phaser will be on when the switch is depressed and by-passed as soon as I release the switch). I searched the Manual and the forum but was unable to find an answer on how to...

    Preset number when powering up

    i recently notice a change since I uploaded Q 8.2. I was used to see the last preset used in the former session to be called when powering up the axe (preset 36 for instance). Now the axe calls preset 0 at every powering up irrespective of the last preset I used. Not a big deal. I tried to...

    Lee Ritenour Portrait album sound

    I would like to reproduce (...approach ...) the sound Lee Ritenour has on his Album "portrait", more specifically on Asa track (punchy chorused clean). Any idea where I should start (amp, cabs, main settings, ... ?). I'am not really successfull at tweaking good cleans. :roll Thanks.:)

    My Axe FX II looks dead ...

    My AXE FX II does not power up anymore. I played at home for about 30’ and everything was fine. I left it for about 2’ to take notes of what I was doing and when I came back the screen was black and the Axe silent. I tried to power off/on several times with no effect. I tried another power...

    Good Live Classic Hard Rock Tone

    I dialed quite successfully several presets based on clean and crunch sounds. However I find myself unable to dial a really good Hard Rock Tone (think of Smoke on the Water as an example) to play live (I play a telecaster through the Axe => two RCF NX12 SMA). My Hard Rock Presets do not "jump...

    Scenes and Parallel lines

    I understand how to use scenes on a single line of the grid, switching blocks on and off when changing scenes. But I would like to use two lines of the grid (say 1 and 2) and select one or the other just changing scene. For instance, scene 1 would call line 1 (drive/amp/cab) and scene 2...

    unable to Upgrade: need for a little help from my friends...

    I successfully upgraded firmware until Version 7. I however never succeeded going to 8. For months I always got the "transfer error" message at the end of the process with the Axe going back to 7. As I suspected that the problem was linked to Axe Edit, I decided to wait for the new editor to be...

    Humbuckers AND single coils

    I like to play different guitars, humbuckers and single coils. Presets tweaked for single coils do not sound perfect when used with humbuckers and vice versa. I have different presets to be used with humbuckers and others with single coils. However I would like to be able to use all with both...

    From (good) bedroom tone to (weak) live sound...

    I know that as a consequence of physics law, “bedroom level” presets will sound differently at louder volume. While I have no problem dialing good presets at “bedroom level”, I am unsuccessful at adapting these presets to gig level, which is extremely frustrating. Usually I do not have much time...
