    Flangers?

    Oh damn! Thank you and many thanks for your help fella

    Flangers?

    Noticed when searching for flangers that AX8 doesn't have Electric Mystery, or others I've seen mentioned. Mine is up to date firmware, do we not have all the flangers that AX3 FM9 have? Thanks for help
  3. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    haha just realised who you are I think I bought a masterclass that you did for AX2! Downloaded it and lost it but I went to Helix but now back with a vengence Great tutorial btw

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Already got one but takes up way too much. Try two Boss FV500H side by side? You'll see what I mean. No fella, just trying to get one pedal to do both. Thanks though
  5. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Oh mate please with all respect. One pedal for wah and volume isn't common? How long have you been on here? Google expression pedal or search here. You'll see. Thanks for replying though honest

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Grateful for your help mate. Honest. But surely you can see my point. No video tutorial?
  7. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Apologies mate, I first posted this in 2013 but admit this was vague. I reposted a few days ago with specifics. Thanks for replying though. Basically it's using one pedal for wah and volume. Pedal Boss FV500H has no toe switch
  8. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Yes mate. There's hundreds of videos for even just connecting it. How to create a preset. No offence mate you know full well the expression pedal scenario is a question that fills this forum. So why only ONE video? Do you get me?
  9. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    So you think in the age of Fractal and technology only two pedals exist? So why lack of info and videos for connection without a footswitch. Sorry for my frustration but I've seen crazy complex answers to harder questions and people here don't seem to know how to connect an FV500H which is a...
  10. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Fella no offence to anyone and thank you again. But are people telling me that amongst the hundreds of videos, tutorials for how to connect simpler Mission and EV? There is only ONE video for volume and wah with a pedal with no switch, I've Facebooked, Googled, and here. Marco Fantons video is...

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Oh blimey! Never thought of that. Goddam bro I thought you'd retired! You've helped me in the past too. Good to see you're still about
  12. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    See that's what I mean fella. Google and see the many that are not even mentioned. Boss, even Electro Harmonix. Two top brand names but never mentioned. I'm worried if not compatible
  13. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    Extremely grateful for replying, but I'm really stuck as to why in 2021 hundreds of foot pedals with foot switches why are only two or three ever mentioned? Roland Boss? Korg? Behringer? Do these not work? I currently have two Boss FV500H but don't think they have foot switches, but there is a...
  14. Ahmed Badreldin

    A definitive answer please. Pedal

    What type of pedal do I need to operate volume and wah without scenes please. Only three brands ever mentioned. Do I just need a pedal with a footswitch? Many thanks for any advice

    Why was the AX8 not upgraded to Ares?

    Totally agree! They update, improve and support. At least that’s what the sales pitch is. Otherwise who would have bought one?
  16. Ahmed Badreldin

    Why was the AX8 not upgraded to Ares?

    Nope disagree and my Helix gets same comments. These are now sold with the premise of updates and improvements, no offence but if developers promise, they can’t change the story to you knew what you were buying’ especially when other Fractal products are being updated still

    Total value of amps, effects,cabs and mics in AX8 and others

    Just answered a post telling somebody how the cost of the Fractal products are nothing in comparison to price of amps and effects. I gave estimation of £100K, but realise with Dumble that could be way higher. Question is, what is your estimation of the gear within this premier piece of...

    Good luck fella. Telling you now, it's like being in a music store, but you own EVERYTHING! Probably £100K and more of amps from vintage to modern. Effects classic to modern. Cabs. You will never regret it. Only limit is your purpose to buy and imagination. It will do complex foot pedal dancing...

    Q10 Firmware for the AX8?

    My opinion? FAS made a rod for its back. Updates upon updates..HOW good can an amp sound? How many parameters? And I’m not just amp and lead bloke. I love gearophobes like Alex Lifeson but what are you people after. It does everything and more. Is it amps? Effects?

    Adding expression pedals?

    Mate, after much hair pull. Cracked it. It’s an edit within an edit. I’m using Boss FV pedal. No issue with AX2. Thanks mate. Getting used to edit I suppose. Used to edit using front panel cos console was mounted on table. Grateful for reply though
  53. Ahmed Badreldin

    Adding expression pedals?

    crazy but became second nature on the Ax2 front panel. Volume won’t go to zero. Wah doesn’t wah. Just goes pedal down to instant treble boost! Pedals calibrated. Any pointers. Parameter I’ve missed. Prefer the panel edit of the Ax2 but then. Had five years of it. This seems tougher
