    Anyway to stop radio interference?

    Hi all, While this is not exactly an Axe question, but when I use my Axe with the Piezo pickups on my Carvin, I get massive radio interference. I can literally listen to the radio station coming thru my speaker. Is there any way to shield this. I live at 700 ft. elevation in San Diego. Great...

    Simple question: Axe: Leave it on or turn it off.

    I keep most of my solid state and tube audio-video gear on all the time, however my habit is to turn my guitar amps on and off. Is it better to just leave the Axe on all the time? I don't care about electric bill; I have solar.

    Scenes overlapping

    Hi, My scenes don't change as seamlessly as some I heard here. Scenes with different delay settings have a lot of warble or whatever you call it. Delay is currently the only variable between scenes. Any suggestions?

    Axe Fx reliability?

    One of the reasons I bought an Axe was to enjoy the relative reliability of a solid state pre-amp and amp (currently using Carvin). Can anyone comment on this? Anyone ever have an Axe fail while performing? What do you do, if anything, for backup? Please don't say "have an extra Axe."

    Output 1 and 2. Quick easy question, I think

    Is the output from 1 and 2 identical? I want to copy 1 to 2 so I can use 2 to output to a monitor and have separate volume control for 1 and 2. Thx

    Reveal button for Scenes or Looper?

    thx. I also realized that I don't need or have the looper on every preset. On those without it, I think I can have the Reveal button do whatever else I want, right?

    Axe 11.03 freezing up

    Anyone else having an issue with AFX 11.03 hanging up and requiring a restart? Solutions? AFX currently connected via USB 2.0 to Mac Air System 10.7.5
  55. J

    Simple question, I think

    Does every preset you create or import have to replace one of the factory presets or is there a bank somewhere for personal presets. I'm guessing the former, but want to make sure before I start over-writing factory presets. Thank you.
