Chef's Boss HM2

I have an original Boss HM-2 as well that I purchased off eBay, but I have found that with the right preset and tweaking all you need to do is is place a compressor pedal before the amp block and turn the output volume of the comp up way too high and you will get almost the same type of tone...

Questions about Re-Amping for those who have...

Thanks for all the help! Like I said before we are not going to be using USB or AES for reamping. USB is pretty meh on the Mac's and we want to keep all our projects at 88kHz and not have to drop everything to 48kHz sample rate. I think we are just going to have to bite the bullet and get a...

Questions about Re-Amping for those who have...

So...my big question is do I need a REAMP DI box? Cause my friend says the track being sent out is clean and before the master output. I'm thinking, because it's probably a balanced XLR out that the signal is just gonna be too hot regardless.

Questions about Re-Amping for those who have...

Wow I didn't even think about that for some reason, but if we just send one channel out of the interface with no plugins on that channel the master bus would still affect that? I would think we would have to be sending the main out to it for that to be the case if there is a master bus comp or...

Questions about Re-Amping for those who have...

Well even with the Axe-Fx not hitting the red it still seems hot. Is this because the signal from the interface is hotter than a typical signal out of a guitar? I'm just wondering if we need to bother buying a re-amp box? So, exactly how much level should we have in terms of the amount of signal...

Questions about Re-Amping for those who have...

Hey everyone! So, my friend and I are recording our new album. We are finally about 98% done with rhythm guitars at least for now. We have have been going DI into an Avalon 737SP and for now just using plugins for tones so we don't have to commit to any one tone or tones before we start mixing...

What happens when we hit FW11 ? (Axe FX III)

It would be cool if they made amps. Something in the vein of like the Line 6 Vetta. Just way way better. A ton of good amp models and effects in a complete SS head.

Meshuggah Koloss Tone

It's pretty easy to get a guitar tone similar to theirs with a Recto New amp sim or FAS Modern with the voicing set to modern and not neutral. Not too much sag and power tube bias and crank up the definition a lot. Tube screamer with boosted mid's. Don't overdo the mid's on the amp, but use a...

My Axe II is now a giant paper weight

Update: Well I had sent my unit back to them. I got it back fairly quickly, but they didn't send me a new unit. Pretty sure they just fixed mine. They never even told me what exactly was wrong with it. I am also a little annoyed, because I only had it for 2 months and they told me they only...

My Axe II is now a giant paper weight

Well I could try and run out today and get a battery. I just feel like this is not a good sign seeing as I haven't had this thing very long. Hopefully I will get a response back tomorrow. Maybe I can ship it back and have them look at it or send me another.

My Axe II is now a giant paper weight

I have done a Sync and Backup several times before. Is that what you mean by backing up? Thanks for the advice on the battery. I will look into that, but I'm hoping to hear back from support on what to do. I'm a little nervous about opening this thing up. I find it a little odd that something...

My Axe II is now a giant paper weight

So, I was having issues with my presets disappearing. Long story short....I tried several Firmware versions and now I am stuck on 6.02 and no presets will save. I keep trying to load all the V6 presets and every time I change a preset or power the unit off and turn it back on everything is gone...

AXE FX II deleting all presets after switching patches...

Yesterday I was editing a patch with Axe-Edit (this is with firmware 6.01) and when I went to switch patches the same thing happened to me. Every patch I tried to switch to came up blank. I unplugged the usb and re-started the Axe-FX. 3 of my patches were completely blank, but after trying to...

Weird volume and noise when connecting into amp FX loop return?

Today I hooked everything back up again and had it all plugged into my Furman power conditioner to help eliminate any additional noise...although the 5150 II FX-loop has and will always be a bit noisy anyway. When adjusting the output level on the Axe2 I still get a strange noise (kind of sounds...

Weird volume and noise when connecting into amp FX loop return?

I will test it again tomorrow. I was just wondering if there was some setting in the Axe-FX that I needed to change, but I don't think so. The outputs are usually set to stereo, but I don't think that matters. I hope it's not the amp, but then again I hope its not the Axe-FX. I could always try...

Weird volume and noise when connecting into amp FX loop return?

Hey everyone just got my Axe-FX II a couple weeks ago and I'm loving this thing. Been using it mostly into my interface and studio monitors, but today I decided to hook it up to my old 5150 II and Mesa 2x12 cab to hear what it sounds like through a power amp/cab setup. Hooked my guitar cable...
