    Tonex One

    Because they don't have amps in music stores? :)

    Tonex One

    That’s exactly what it is. The same sounds and quality as the bigger one, only in a small format and with the SE software if I understand it correctly. I will buy one as a backup for my guitar and bass amps or modeller. It has more bass stuff in it than the Axe fx actually.

    AFIII Prog fusion track with weird bass tritone tuning

    Recorded this new proggy fusion track this week called "The Tanagran Triton" with my Axe fx II (there is no II prefix!). The bass was recorded direct using a vst amp plugin (Brainworx). The bass is tuned in tritones F#CF#C. A rather weird tuning that generates some new ideas and sounds for me...

    Yes I have seen some videos. Sounds really good. Too bad it doesn’t have presets. There is almost too much on it to remember all the settings. Wish something like this was in the Axe fx

    Wish Bass stuff wish list

    Think you have a plan there! sounds valid... :) The Axe fx is a bit frustrating for bass players because guitar players get new goodies every months or so and bass players are basically being ignored. You are right in saying that the Axe fx/FM is made by a guitar player, not a bass player and...

    Ok thanks. The 800 vst is pretty clean. The dual/bi-amp thing confuses me sometimes. That’s a concept not many amps have. Not sure if the original amp also has that or only the vst?
  14. Bodde

    Anything for bass is welcome! I have the GK800 Brainworx vst which is pretty good! Does the 2001 sound the same as the 800?

    Wish AXE FX III Core - 1U Rack Version

    The Axe fx II was 2U. The Axe fx III is 3U. Maybe the Axe fx IV will be 4U? With room for a toaster….😀
  16. Bodde

    Wish AXE FX III Core - 1U Rack Version

    Yes great idea. I think the Axe fx III is way too big. That’s one of the reasons I don’t buy it. 2U is more than enough for me. 1U could work too because I hardly do any editing on the front panel.

    Fractal Noise Reducer vs noiseless single-coils

    I have Dimarzio (humless) Area 61 and 58 single coils in one of my strats. They sound good. I have Voodoo single coils in my other strat, which sound great but I am so tired of the typical single hum when recording and also during gigs that I am thinking of changing them to Dimarzios single coil...

    Yes that’s a good idea. Although I like the sound of the Tera Echo and can see myself using it in a few tracks, it is a bit of a niche sound with limited application.

  26. Bodde

    Wish 2 pitch blocks please

    Well we could always buy one these of course. If it wasn't so expensive I probably would have had it by now. The other thing I don 't like is the fact that you need to hook up yet another extra switch for the hold and blend function. They also have a new volume swell thing which you can use...

    Synth block tracking

    That seems like a real hassle. Then you might just as well buy a better dedicated synth pedal like the Source Audio c4 or something from Boss or so.
  32. Bodde

    Wish 2 pitch blocks please

    Yes we at least could have the option for two pitch blocks. So you could decide for yourself if the latency is too much or not. Or use a simpler chain if you want to use two pitch blocks. Cause now if you want a Whammy combined with pitch shifting or Virtual Capo combined with pitch shifting you...
  33. Bodde

    Wish 2 pitch blocks please

    Yes. I never heard that it cannot be done. But I don’t think anyone from Fractal ever commented on the two pitch block thing. I think it’s just a strange decision that they only included one pitch block in the FM9. For me it’s a real dealbreaker unfortunately.
  34. Bodde

    Wish 2 pitch blocks please

    Do you think 2 pitch blocks is even possible on the FM9, technical and memory wise? I have no idea. If so, why didn't Fractal choose to have two pitch blocks in the FM9 from the start?

    AFIII Fretless guitar and 6 string bass

    Thanks. Like that word :) For those of you that are interested, here's a new I made last week. Guitars are all Axe fx II this time. Bass is again direct with a GK plugin added. I just prefer the sound of some plugins over the Axe fx II bass amps.
  39. Bodde

    Wish Ring mod expansion

    Cool! I agree. The Ring Mod block is good and useful, but there are dedicated Ring Mod pedals that do it better. The block could be improved or expanded. When was the last time it was updated? Might be years ago, I am not sure. Hopefully one day it will happen.

    Delay or Tremolo used on this sound?

    Ok great. Thanks. I will have a look.

    Delay or Tremolo used on this sound?

    Ok that must be something that has been added on the Axe fx III then? I am on Axe fx II.
  49. Bodde

    Delay or Tremolo used on this sound?

    Square tremolo. I wish the tremolo block had a threshold trigger. So that it starts running at the exact beginning of the cycle the moment you pick a note. Otherwise it's very hard or even impossible to sync the tremolo to a fixed BPM. Same goes for the arpeggiator or sequencer.
  50. Bodde

    Looper Quantize

    The Axe fx can’t do this! It only quantises the end point not the beginning. So for playing loops along with a drumbeat or click track the looper doesn’t work as you say. Unless you absolutely nail the begin point which is nearly impossible. If not the loop is going to drift. So if you want to...

    Fractal Audio Multi-FX Pedal

    Maybe close but not the same. That's the beauty of different algos in the Eventide. It's already there without having to do complex routing with five block or so. There are more algos like that in the Eventide. Like I said, it's just different not worse. Whatever you prefer is up to you.....

    Fractal Audio Multi-FX Pedal

    Well it's not a competition. Both units (Axe fx and H9/H90) can do things that the other can't do. Eventide has some very nice algos and sounds that the Axe fx just doesn't have and visa versa. I think the H9 is very easy to use, especially with the software. I don't own a H90 so I can't tell...
  56. Bodde

    Fractal Audio Multi-FX Pedal

    To me they just sound different, not worse. But as I said, just a matter of taste. I never use the H9 together with my Axe fx. I use it for different gigs/projects where I need a smaller set up.
  57. Bodde

    Fractal Audio Multi-FX Pedal

    I think the Eventide H9 and H90 are the same level as the Axe fx when it comes to purely effects. What is better is highly subjective and a matter of taste. But the FM3 totally wins because there is a lot more possible than on the H9 or H90 with combining effects etc. And yes why should one wish...

    FM9 - Volume pedal - use the block at the beginning of the grid, in the middle, or at the end?

    If you want to do delay swells put it right before the delay. if you want to control the end volume put it right at the end. If you want to control the gain of an amp or drive put it before that. In your case put the volume block after the cab otherwise it will effect the gain.

    Wish 2 pitch blocks please

    I am not sure about that. Is that confirmed? Can't agree more with this wish. That's one thing that keeps me from buying the FM9. I use two pitch blocks a lot and I don't want having to buy and bringing along an extra pitch shifter pedal if I buy an expensive machine like the FM9.

    I agree. Most dedicated synth pedals track better than the synth block in the Axe fx. So technically it can be done I guess. This goes for bass but also for guitar. The synth can use an update for sure.
