    Fryette D60 More not enough gain?

    I really enjoy the tone demonstrated in these videos (very thick and saturated yet with loads of headroom due to the KT88s): When trying to match this tone on the Axe, the model (D60 More) feels dramatically undergained. Is it possible that there is some sort of mistake with the model?

    New FM3 Turbo, modelling differences between AFX3 and FM3

    I have just received the new FM3 MKII and one of the first things I noticed is that the amps sound different between the platforms (much more boomy bass on the FM3 vs my AxeFX3). I remember one specific update to the the Axe firmware which made dramatic improvements in that regard: "21.03...

    Class D high end amplifiers vs PowerStage

    I am currently using the Powerstage 170 with my FX3 and FM3 rigs and am generally quite pleased with the sound (especially with Cygnus X2), except for the somewhat stiff response (which I assume could be attributed to the damping factor of the SD?). Looking into some of the DIY class D stuff...

    Wish Multiband Compressor Knee Types

    It would be great to have the same selection of Knee Types in the multiband compressor block as in the standard compressor block.

    Amp Block Compression

    Yesterday when playing the Axe through my Matrix GT1000fx amp, I discovered that using a multiband compressor (more or less at default settings) after the amp produced a more pleasing response (not as woofy) when playing palm muted chords and the whole feel in general was more "explosive". I was...

    Class AB vs Class D

    Hi all, I've been a long time user of the Seymour Duncan Powestage 170 amp but have never quite been satisfied with the way it sounded when compared with my JVM head. I recently purchased an Orange Pedal Baby 100 to try it out and so far, most of the tone characteristics ground that I've been...

    Cathode Follower Amps

    When playing through power amp and cab (SD Powerstage 170 and Marshall 2x12 with V30s) I have noticed that when playing amps with a cathode follower, there is some strangeness going on in the lower mids which gives the sound a somewhat muffled/covered with blanket character. I have noticed it...

    Herbie Presence Pot Taper

    Been playing around with the Herbie models today and noticed that the presence pot behaviour is a bit strange - the control seems to have almost zero effect from 0 to 8 on the dial and is very powerful from 8 to 10. Is this behaviour normal or is there maybe a problem with the taper of the...

    [Bug] Issue with Hot Kitty amp and maximum output

    I've run into a weird issue using a preset with a Hot Kitty amp. If I start the Axe with the Hot Kitty preset selected (with AC amp block boost engaged), the output levels max out (the output LEDs light up red) and the Axe does not respond to guitar input. It also produces a thud whenever I...
