    Wish Set a switch to a preset/scene (and back)

    Can buy a guitar with Roland GK3. Advantage use with AX?

    As stated above, can buy a guitar with that pickup. I will not leave the AX8 and go the Roland digital way, but is there some use for it in combination with my Fractal stuff? Besides the VG88 I don't if there's any more gear works with that pickup. Any experiences welcome!

    Wish Send and Return Block

    I've searched but no results. Doesn't anybody miss those blocks to make longer chains? I do, when I want to recreate (read convert with Al's program) the longer patches from f.e. Yek's presets. I cannot imagine it takes much CPU so: Is there any chance we will get that one FAS?

    I'm breaking my head over the synth block. Inspired by the AtmoSynth I want to create something like that in the AX8. But we have only 1 synth block and 2 scene controllers Could it be that with a 3rd scene controller, we can set all 3 voices so that we can make different chords? Pls come in...

    Atmosynth

    Does anybody or @fremen know if this atmosynth patch is converted to AX8 already? If it is possible at all with the AX8.... Think not because it doesn't have the same blocks? So maybe some workaround to get close?

    Different components in the modelling

    I was thinking out of curiousity. The modelling 'models' the components in the amp. Now there can be some difference between components. Eg a resistor can be with 5% or 10% difference and there are many examples of that. Also an old Marshall is hardwired, while the new ones are on a circuit...
