    Help, Please: Setting the IA Switches.

    Hello, all: With the MFC-101, IA switches 1-5 were for presets. The remaining switches were used to turn individual effects on and off. I would like to do the same with the AX8. My thought is to have 1-4 as presets and 5-8 as Drive, Chorus, Delay and Filter (boost). Can someone kindly give me...

    AX8 vs. Helix: On-The-Fly Programming.

    Hello, all: PLEASE: No bashing, no fanboism and if you have no true experience with these units, do not express an opinion. That may sound rather harsh, but I am making a serious inquiry, and I don't care for Monday morning quarterbacks. Further, this post does not require any discussion of...

    Foot switch question.

    Hello, all: I've been using the Axe FX II exclusively for almost six years. I am very comfortable with editing via the unit's front panel as opposed to using Axe Edit. I just received the AX8, and I find it rather unintuitive in its operation. My main purpose for the unit is live performance...

    Question with regard to the waitlist.

    I see that people who signed up in the middle of October are getting invites. That's about 5 months out. I signed up January 13th. Does anyone know if it has been a steady 5 month backlog, or does the supply ebb and flow? Thank you.

    For Those Familiar with Both the AX8 and Helix--Serious Question.

    I say "serious," because I'm not a tire kicker, and I don't pose hypothetical inquires. With that out of the way, I have a complete Axe FX II rig that I use for regular gigging. I have a dedicated RCF monitor for myself on stage, and I send a signal to FOH. I am very interested in the AX8 for...

    HELP, PLEASE!

    Hello, all: My FX II has been my main gigging rig since I bought it. That was when Firmware 6 was status quo. Over time, I have purchased quite a number of IRs, most from Ownhammer. The fact is, I have little time to go through hundreds of IRs when the difference can be so subtle. I feel...

    Thoughts, please: out with FX II and in with the AX-8?

    Hello, all: I am a long time user of the Axe FX II-since version 6. Here is the rig that I have been using on a regular basis for gigging: I just started reading about the AX-8 and think it may be for me. I don't avail myself of the deep editing capabilities of the Axe, and I don't need...

    Suggestions on an alternative to the CLR?

    Hello, all: When I bought my Axe FX II, I bought the RCF NX 12-SMA as my monitor. I loved it. Time went by, and a number of well-respected forum members raved about the Atomic powered CLR. Next thing you know, I bought the CLR, had a custom cover made for it and sold the RCF. I have forced...

    Before I Modify My Vafam Panel, One Question: TS or TRS?

    Hello, all: I run my connections from the back of the Axe FXII to the front via a Vafam breakout panel. Currently, I am running both XLR outs of Output One to the front where one goes to my CLR monitor, and the other goes to the FOH. Obviously, I can only use one output level for both outs...

    Embarrassing Question, Folks.

    I posted a thread about purchasing new IRs. I then purchased Cab Pack 6. I don't know how to load them. I am using Axe Edit for this purpose. FWIW, I already have 67 slots filled in the Axe-Manage Cabs section. If anyone has time to give me the step by step instructions, I'd appreciate...

    Advice, Please: Which IRs to buy.

    Hello, all: I have been using the Axe FX 11 for 2 1/2 years now, and it is my main rig. I did purchase a few Own Hammer IRs along the way. I am ready to update. My band plays classic rock and current dance music. Mainly, I need IRs for Fenders, Marshalls, Mesa, etc. NO METAL OR DROPPED TUNING...

    UltraRes IRs-Where do I begin?

    I have the lastest firmware installed on my Axe FX II. Did Cliff include any UltraRes IRs with Version 13? I am guessing not. Where do I begin to find UltraRes IRs to install? Previously, I purchased most of the Own Hammer IRs. I see that UltraRes IRs are are being offered, but they're a...

    Storing Own Hammer IRs in the Axe-help please.

    I purchased all of Kevin's new IRs. Is there room in the Axe to store all of them? If not, how many can be loaded at any given time? I would be most appreciative if someone would be kind enough to walk me through the procedure of bulk dumping the IRs. Thank you.

    I would like to go from a clean preset into an overdriven preset (two different amps within the same preset) via one of my expression pedals. Can it be done? Thank you. Dan

    Atomic CLR Wedge Covers?

    I know that Studio Slips sells a cover, however, I'd like to find one that is similar to RCF's cover for its NX series. I loved that cover, as you never need to remove the cover while in use. I have contacted Tuki to see if they can make one for me that won't break the bank. Anyone aware...

    Advice Re: Balanced vs. Unbalanced Outputs, Please.

    Hello, all: I currently use the balanced outputs of Output 1 on my Axe FX II. Both outputs are brought around front in my rack via a Vfram unit. One out goes to my powered monitor, and the other ges to the FOH mixer. When configured in this fashion, I only have one output level control...

    I am apologizing in advance as I cannot find this topic in the forum. How do I copy all settings of my "X" amp to "Y"? There are times when I want to use the same amp for leads but wih a bit more drive, mids and volume. Thank you.

    Help, Please Re: Output Settings on Axe-FX II.

    Hello, all: I screwed up my output settings at a recent gig. My intent is that Output 1 goes to my powered monitor and Output 2 goes to FOH. For some reason, only Output 1 was responding to the Output control knob on the front of the Axe; Output 2 control knob did nothing. What are the...

    Quick question-can't load a particular effect in the Layout menu.

    In my layout, I am trying to add Filter 1. As I dial in the effects, it bypasses Filter 1 and only shows Filter 2. I checked to see if Filter 1 was added elsewhere in the chain, but it is not. Why is it skipping over Filter 1? Thanks. Dan

    How Do I The Turn Scene Option OFF?

    I own the FX-II and the MFC-101. Both are up to date with the firmware. I have a gig this weekend and don't have time to take advantage of the new Scene feature. My MFC is set up such that 1-5 are my presets, and the remainder of the IAs are effects within a preset. I keep running across...

    Updating the MFC-101: Midi Issue.

    Updating the MFC-101: Midi Issue. SOLVED. I recently updated my Axe-FX II while still on a PC. I didn't have time to update my MFC-101. I just bought a new iMac and tried to update the MFC. The iMac will not recognize my M-Audio Midisport 8x8S midi interface. After a bit of research, I...

    No Longer a Virgin-First Show With The AXE-FX2

    Hello, all: 52 years old, been playing guitar since 1964. I play guitar in a six-piece Classic Rock and current Top 40 dance band. I have owned far too many effects boxes/multi units to count. Same for modeled amps. I bought the AXE-FX2, new, in July. I had shows in July and August, but I...

    Changing the order of presets-help, please.

    Not sure what I'm missing here. I have created a number of personalized presets which I have numbered on the Axe FX II as 001 to 030. To place them in these numbered spots, I had to either delete presets already present in those slots, or I had to swap locations with presets I did not want to...

    Assigning an Ia to a particular sound block in preset.

    Okay, I am wading into the waters of the AXE FX II and the MFC controller. While playing with several presets, the effects have been added, and are controlled by lighted switches. Great! Now, how can assign certain presets to an existing patch. For example, I like USA Clean, however, I would...
