    Axe FX 2 XL + sounds dull please help Home recording.

    I am seeing a similar problem. I did a couple of tests that had (I think) interesting results. The first test was to take an external pink noise generator and plug it into the input jack on the Axe FX. I then recorded the AxeFX in Protools 12 using the USB connection playing just this pink...

    Using Fractal Cab IR's in Pro Tools 12

    I would like to use some of the Fractal Cab Packs I purchased within Pro Tools. I am using an amp load simulator on my tube amp and going direct into my sound interface. Unfortunately the Cab Lab Plug-in does not offer AAX plugins and does not work with Pro Tools 12. I know there are VST/AU...

    Fremen Quantum 1.0 presets

    Great Stuff Fremen! Question...what cabs are used in the Groot preset. I looked at the excel, but it looks like there where more cabs than preset slots for that preset. Also, are there any mics on the cabs? My were blanked out since I don't have the cabs you used (yet!) Thanks!

    Does anyones Axe-FX II sound this good?

    I have done some testing and have made a couple of observations about the AxeFXII. Most of you that are more experienced already know all of this, but for those of us just getting into the unit, hopefully this will help. - The AxeFX is *very* sensitive to different guitars. I was surprised...

    Does anyones Axe-FX II sound this good?

    I think I should clarify what my problem is. I am not trying to copy anyone's tone or fingers or guitars. My observation is that of the quality of the overall tone, for all patches. There just seems to be a difference in the overall sound quality. I would characterize it as 2D vs 3D, distant...

    Does anyones Axe-FX II sound this good?

    Thanks Cooper. You are an inspiration. After listening to your video, I thought something was wrong with my gear. I have since learned it is the nut behind the wheel. I have learned a lot since I posted this. While my fingers will likely *never* sound as good as yours, I have made some...

    Axe Edit Comunication Error when using Pro Tools 10

    Problem is I wanted to cycle though the Cab presets to see how they sound. I recorded the dry track in Logic. I output to the axe-fx to hear it. But when I try to run Axe-Edit I get the timeout. Is there any easy way to cycle through the cab presets while listening to playback from Logic?

    Axe Edit Comunication Error when using Pro Tools 10

    I have the same problem with Logic. I think it is because the DAW has the Axe Soundcard locked to it. I am also looking to see if there is a solution...

    Does anyones Axe-FX II sound this good?

    I have done more test fiddling with pickups, 5 different guitars, I/O gain and mine still sound dull. If I add a 4db high shelf I start to get closer. The quest continues... BTW - I am monitoring with Neumann KH120 monitors in a fairly well treated/bass trapped room and Sony 7520 HF....

    Does anyones Axe-FX II sound this good?

    Man, I guess I would not have attributed this difference to just guitar/tweaking. I will try a couple of different guitars/pickup combinations and see what I get. Will report back findings...

    Does anyones Axe-FX II sound this good?

    I was just listening to this utube video by G66 called 8 Great Axe-FX Factory presets. I thought - my gawd that sounds really good. So I fired up my axe-fx II, dialed up the same presets A/B'd them, and they do not sound nearly as good as the ones in the video. Mine sounds flat and 2D where...

    Question about v10 vs v11 presets ?

    From one noob to another. Just got mine on Fri. Here is how I do it. 1) Connect AxeFX to computer with USB and load driver (I assume you have done this already) 2) Launch AxeEdit and select a preset with the preset button. (Note: this is the preset you will over-write so pick one you...

    Reamping I got hiss

    I was having the same problem. Significant hiss on re-amping. I found I had a plugin on my master bus in the DAW that was causing it. I disabled all plugins on the output bus and the hiss was completely gone!
