Wrong pickup spacing

Eminence Speaker Impulse Response

Axe FX 3 and Latency in Reaper

I might be going crazy here, but I am noticing a tiny bit of latency in my recordings. When I'm jamming to EZ drummer it sounds fine, and when I record it it sounds fine, but when I play it back it's off just a hair. Has anyone had a similar experience, and if so how did you resolve it? I am...

For sale is an Axe FX 2XL. It's pretty much dead mint except for that one of the screws up top is a little discolored, but that's how it came from the factory. It has never been out of my studio, and still has the plastic on the screen (which of course gives it better tone, haha). It is...

Autowah

Does anyone remember back in the days of the ultra there was a preset called recto wah lead (or something like that)? Man, that was one was great! Could somebody post me a generic auto wah preset or at least explain how to create the effect? I searched, but couldn't find the answer.
