    LB-2 Level Question

    I'm running my Friedman WW20 into a LB-2, then a FM3 (for effects) into a Fryette LXII stereo tube amp. I'm finding that I have to keep the LB-2 output at maximum (I have the FM3 setup for unity gain and output 2 at max) for good signal to the power amp. Is this your experience? The Friedman...

    Fryette LXII

    Just got a LXII and running through a pair of Mesa 1x12 wide body closed cabs. All things being equal, I’m not feeling the LXII coming alive until the volume knob is around 2pm. Have been using a pair of PowerStage 200s and have not changed any of my fm3 or AxeFx III presets. Seems a lot louder...

    Axe-Fx III vs The real deal tube amp

    I suspect I'm not alone, but the endless IR variations (let alone the cab choices themselves) bog me down the most as of late....

    Axe-Fx III vs The real deal tube amp

    Yep, have run through the return on my amps, also have a Seymour Duncan PS700 as well as two PS200 (pedal board stereo setup) .....I like them hooked up as you describe, too.....again, I think I have every rig varient....also have a captor x setup....a bit schizo on a day to day basis as it...

    Axe-Fx III vs The real deal tube amp

    I have several variations of amp rigs centered around my Mark IV combo and Mark V 90 head....taken out of a mix and at home, I really love the tone and feel of my fractal modelers (AxeFx III Turbo and a FM3) through a pair of Adam A7X studio monitors. Intoxiating soudn and feel. I can't seem...

    Switching from Mark IV to Axe-Fx III

    Yep, I can be satisfied in multiple schemes....I can pretty much get the same sound out of anything (ok, I can't get a Friedman out of an undriven Twin) which has made me wonder over time the point of so many options which fuels the craziness....to me, lately, it's been more of a "feel" thing...

    Switching from Mark IV to Axe-Fx III

    When using near field monitors at my desk (Adam A7X), tones are like ear candy.....I still enjoy my tube rig setup with my Mark IV (setup in WDW)....there's just something instantaneouly enjoying with the "feel" and "thump"....love all the gear on any given day!

    Switching from Mark IV to Axe-Fx III

    I am schizophrenic with gear...some days I really love my Fractal gear (AxeFx III Turbo and FM3) and then love my Mark IV and V 90 through cabs....I can't settle on a single solution..

    Frequencies of real speakers and cabs vs FRFR cabs

    because you ARE trying to make it sound like a guitar speaker cab....it's more than just the "full range"....the IRs are all different in their response....old thread but felt I needed to reply...

    Good FRFR Speaker to Pair with FM9?

    Called Mission and spoke to their support group....first issue sounds like a capacitance issue...second issue requires a perfomace analysis in an anechoic type room...net, only way to tell is to send back to them to address both matters : (

    Good FRFR Speaker to Pair with FM9?

    Yep, the pop is not my issue (recognize it exists....as you likely know, higher end audio amps have a circuit to eliminate the capacitor charging which causes the pop) The issue presents itself with no input signal attached as well....nothing plugged into the cab (except, of course, the power...

    Good FRFR Speaker to Pair with FM9?

    I've got a Gemini II live with no bluetooth...manufactured in October 2020....I'm having two issues: 1. Upon power up (yes, there's the pop), in adjusting the volume knob in the first few minutes causes an extreme loud crackling sound out of the speaker. Doesn't matter if volume was set at...

    Should I Buy an Amp?

    I’ve owned 30 tube amps over the last 10 years. Most of them “boutique/high end”. I’ve owned several fractal products. I’ve owned a few hybrid (think Revv with embedded two notes). I’ve done FRFR, big guitar cabs, small guitar cabs, stereo rigs, wet/dry, wet/dry/wet. Net, it’s a never ending...

    Pulling out 1/4 jack half way from output 2 results in volume increase

    So is the conclusion from Fractal Audio that it is “normal” for output volume to dramatically increase when pulling a TS (“normal style”) guitar cable half way out of Output 2? I accidentally discovered this with my new FM3 for both L and R outputs to a Seymour Duncan PS700 to a pair of 1x12...

    Using Axe-Fx III with a real amp

    Hi All, Can someone help me with possibilities to integrate/use the AxeFx3 and my Mesa Mark V 90W Combo in following scenarios: 1. Mark V Combo using AxeFx3 for effects (mostly time based) only...I would also have two Mesa 1x12 extension cabs connected to the combo 2. AxeFx 3 with a Seymour...

    Axe-Fx III vs The real deal tube amp

    On any given week, I'm ready to go 100% AxeFx III or 100% tube amp rigs (I have both)...not being a regular gigging musician (occasional get together with a band) or a recording guy, I just have the good fortune of satisfying my guitar playing at home. Been a player for 40 years....always...

    Real Friedman BE-50 or Axe-Fx 3?

    I have an Axefx 3 as well as a friedman smallbox/2x12 cab, a Mesa Mark V combo and Mesa Lonestar Classic with a matching 1x12 cab. I’m also owned nearly a dozen boutique amps in the past 5 years. I am concluding that the Axefx 3 with my Matrix GT1000fx through the Mesa cab and another output...
