    Just Getting Into Control Switches...

    So I've used Fractal gear for a few years and recently got an FM9 Turbo that shipped with the last firmware update 6.0 - which to me brings it on par with my Axe-Fx III. I saw the FC-6 Sidecar thread and hooked up my old FC-6 with the FM9 and am loving the functionality! Just about the perfect...

    Can the FM9 Run This Layout?

    Hi Folks, I'm considering getting an FM9 Turbo and want to know if it can support a layout similar to Layout 7 - Perform 1 that I run with my FC-12 and Axe-Fx. It looks like the FM9 has the button/function space to have at least four presets and some effects options running at once, and still...

    Looper Pedal for Playing Live?

    Since our female lead singer/keyboard player is moving on, my band is going to start playing out as a trio. I still want us to sound full as a three piece. Does anyone use a looper pedal during gigs that you would recommend? I have tried the built in looper in my Axe III, but have seen a lot of...

    NGD - DGT

    Just got this guitar a few weeks ago. Love the DGT pickups and neck carve on these models. The roasted maple neck has a satin finish with some cool figure. Action is low and plays great with 10’s. Love playing this guitar through some of the Fender presets, as well as JTM, and REVV models...

    Dumble and Dumbler & Nash S-63

    After playing for more than 30 years, I got my first ever 'Strat' guitar this week - a Nash S-63 and I'm loving the tones and getting so much more out of the all the SRV and single coil presets @Burgs and so many others have created and shared with the community. The surprise was at band...

    New Guitar in the House

    I'm a big PRS fan and I finally landed a David Grissom model that I've wanted for a long time. I've had two other DGT's, but this one is a keeper and my new number #1. Aside from the stunning top and everything else about it, it's a beast of a player - it sounds thick and full, mixing the two...

    Looking for Advice for Low Gain Tones

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend. I finally had time and an empty house to turn my Fractal and Atomic CLR up to gig volume, around 90 db today. I had a blast and the little ear fatigue was well worth it. I auditioned a bunch of amps and presets - JCM 800, JTM45Plexi, Silver Jubilee...

    EV 1 Trouble - Using the Wah also controls the volume level? SOLVED!

    I just got an EV-1 and watched a few videos and thought I was good to go with pedal calibration, but no matter what I do when I'm using a way block, when the pedal is either in toe up or toe down position, the volume shuts off completely, not just the way function. Even when using the wah, when...

    Rebel Yell Keys Sound

    Hi All - my band doesn't have our keyboard player for our next gig, and we're doing Rebel Yell. I want to get a tone close to the synths in the bridge part after the solo. Does anyone have any recommendations for presets to check out that I could fine tune for the song? Thanks for the help!

    Axe-Fx lll Back Live!

    Played my first gig in over 2 1/2 years last week! In a new band of super talented people and grateful to be playing out again! Coming from an AX8 with multiple presets for nearly every song in my old 80’s cover band, I kept it simple and limited myself to 6 or so presets mostly using AB’s and...

    New Axe-Fx III Player

    I picked up my Axe-Fx III from the shop today and love the tones and so many cool presets right out of the box! I was having trouble getting my FC-12 to show anything in the mini displays and I sent a message to BryantP who responded in a flash, told me what I needed to do, and I'm off and...

    FC-12 OMG Set up Trouble

    Hi All, I just picked up a new FC-12 and love that I have access to 8 scenes and the tap temp and tuner. I was able to set the bank +1 and bank -1 on the FC-12, and it does show it's working as it should when I press each switch with the banks new name appearing on the FC 12, but the bank is...

    FC-12 Bank Up Bank Down Question

    Hi All, I just picked up a new FC-12 and love that I have access to 8 scenes and the tap temp and tuner. What I can't figure out with the OMG 15 'scenes' layout, is how to add a bank +1 and bank -1 function to the two unassigned switches in the layout. When I try to that, and think I have it...

    Right Out of the Box...

    I'm finally taking the time to get into my FM3 after picking up an FC-6 from the shop a few days ago. I downloaded the OMG-9 layout and have been in tone nirvana since then. The sounds I'm hearing from the FM3 are so good! Going from an Eleven Rack to an AX8 a few years ago was a big leap...

    RCF Speakers?

    Hi All, One of my friends who plays the AX III uses RCF speakers and says they're amazing - way better than the QSC's he used to use. I gig with an old EV 12" powered speaker which has been doing the job, but I've been reading about the RCF powered wedges and speakers and would love to hear...

    Trying to Make This Work

    So I have Austin Buddy's latest Dream Rigs pack, and am loving the tones and great options for songs. I have my AX8 set up globally with switches 1-4 as presets, and 5-8 as effects to drop in and out based on the song. My band plays about 45 songs a night. In Austin Buddy's tutorial on how to...

    Looking for a Good Amp / Preset for Rockabilly Sound

    Hi All - my band is going to play Rock This Town, and I'm having a hard time dialing in the tone and the reverb. I have a Suhr SSH+ in the bridge and a PRS VB in the neck. I'm using a Fender '65 amp model and just can't seem to get the right pickup combo (to split or not to split) that gets...

    So Many Options...

    I have only owned a few amps in my life.I started with a GK 250 ML (Lifeson made me do it), then a Marshall DSL 100, a Mesa .50 combo, and a Mark IV head and 2x12. I was already blown away with the amp models in the AX8 and found the ones I needed to get the sounds for my 80's cover band. Life...

    First AX8 Gigs - Still Smiling

    I played three times this past weekend using the AX8 for the first time. Quick impressions - the sound is so much more detailed and amp-like than my old rig (11 Rack). I don't know how to describe it, but there's no high end frequency or digital 'swirl' to dial out right from the start. I know...

    AX8 Gig Advice?

    Thanks to everyone who responded to my thread about scenes vs. presets for a switch layout. I'm going with presets and adding effects as needed for those songs. There are so many more switch options to choose for layout with the AX8. If anyone has any advice or tips they're willing to share to...

    Scenes or Presets?

    As I learn more about how to set up the global functions for the 1-8 and F footswitches, I'm trying to figure out the best layout for me...I'm used to having switches 1-4 on my old Ground Control Pro set for individual presets for songs and then using the other four switches for adding drive...

    My AX8 Journey Begins

    So I've had my AX8 for a few days and I'm learning as I go. Though the learning curve is a little steep, I haven't been this excited about a piece of gear in a long time. Having gigged an Eleven Rack with a GCP for years in my cover band, I'm used to that switching format - pretty simple and...

    Power Conditioner?

    Does anyone use a power conditioner with their AX8? I've always used my old Monster 3500 with my 11Rack and will likely use it with the AX8. If you have any lighter weight alternatives - lol - I'd love to hear those suggestions. Thanks!

    About to Dive In - A Few Questions

    Hi All - First, let me say that the amount of information, amazing videos and helpful folks on here is amazing. The more I read and listen to, the closer I am to finally getting an AX8. I've been using an Eleven Rack with a Ground Control Pro in my 80's cover band for years. For the range...
