Seeking Opinions: controlled feedback in different firmware versions

I'm a gigging player using an Axe2 with fw14.02. It's awesome and honestly, I could work with it forever as is. Can anyone comment from personal experience if any firmware versions newer than 14.02 have an improved propensity to get controlled feedback (as compared to 14.02 and earlier)...

FW15 - Backwards Compatibility Compromises Development?

I have observed that there are two distinct camps of Axe-Fx II users vis a vis firmware updates: 1. Those that need backwards compatibility with their existing presets, and; 2. Those that don't. Judging from the many posts by "FractalAudio" (Cliff Chase personally, if I...

Request for Troubleshooting Dynamics Section

FYI, I posted this concern three days ago in the Bugs forum but there are no replies. I'm pretty sure there is an X/Y switching bug in the poweramp dynamics sections. I think this may also be responsible for some of the un-explained scene-switching glitches that have been reported by others...

v14 Presets

In another thread, M@ referred to the "v14 presets". Does anyone know where to go to download them? The presets on the webpage are still the same v12 presets. I checked the file in case the text is not updated but it's the same file as a few months ago (316,537 bytes). Thanks.

FW 14.02 CF Comp Bug ?

If I use CF Comp (set to anything other than zero), I get a thump when X/Y amp switching. To recreate: Use ODS-100 Lead as Amp 1-X and ODS-100 Lead as Amp 1-Y. Set CF Comp to 25% (or whatever) in Amp 1-Y. You will hear a thump when switching from X to Y. It makes no difference if you...

Basic Question re FW13.02

I've read other threads about FW13 but I'd really appreciate a clear confirmation (or correction) of my basic understanding: If I install FW13.02, then do a full system reset, and then install the latest factory presets (V12_Factory_Presets), the following will be the case: 1. at this...

Custom Equipment Cover Manufacturers

Can anyone recommend where I could get a custom-made soft padded bag for a small rack? I bought a speaker cover from Tuki that has been great but I'm looking for other options in case they can't do it. Thank in advance. Mack

FRFR / line array top

Has anyone used a line array top as a backline FRFR solution for the Axe? It occured to me that a line array top might be great for this application because of their wide horizontal / narrow vertical dispersion patterns. You could fill the room width, but less bouncing off the floor and...

Question for Scott Peterson and other RCF users

I read some advertising material on the RCF NX12sma that talks about one of its great features being the "complete absence of feedback". Obviously a great thing for a vocal monitor. Of course I would like to think that with the AxeII it rejects sudden unpleasant jolts of harsh random feedback...

Question re: Multiple Coaxial Speaker Rig

I'm an AFX2 owner and, like many others, am waiting for the new FRFR products from Atomic and Matrix. It's been suggested a couple of times on this forum (eg: Rex on the "Matrix FRFR 1x12 Coaxial Solution!" thread) that the reason you don't typically see coaxial drivers in a 2x12" or 4x12"...

Active Atomic Reactor Cabinet SPL

I would like to have an idea of how loud and CLEAN an active Atomic Reactor cabinet can go with an Axe-FxII clean preset. For me personally, the best comparative reference would be a real 100W silverface Fender Twin Reverb.........can anyone tell me if I can get into Twin SPL territory with an...
