Tips for Mesa Bookie IV Clean & Cab

Hi Alarto, I'm sure that there are others far more qualified than I am to answer your questions specifically, but a few things that work for me when using this excellent model are: The mid control is a quite powerful tool for altering the gain as well as the girth, and high settings can be...

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 6.02 Public Beta

Very, very good work! Thank you Cliff. I'm finding that I like values of between 1.10 and 1.20 so far, and it improves the tone and feel of every amp I've tried. It really makes me appreciate Q6 more than ever!

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 3.03 Firmware Release

The 303 is also one of my favourite roads because it takes me to good places, which is exactly what I'm expecting this firmware to do! Thanks Cliff and team for this exciting surprise!

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 2.00 Firmware Release

Thanks Fractal for an amazing firmware update. I don't usually favour Marshall style amps, but I'm really enjoying the Satriani models. I'm having a bit of trouble getting them to sound like Coldplay though, haha!

Axe-Fx II "Quantum" 2.00 Public Beta Numero Tres

Something I've learnt: If Cliff tells me it's a good thing, then it's a good thing! I can think of a couple of descriptors that could apply to both a Mesa/Boogie and to Cliff's statement, but I'm not going to share them here as I feel unclean just thinking about it!

Deserted Island Artist...

I've got to agree with Zappa. As well as because of the volume and quality of his work, you would also get to listen to lots of other amazing musicians too (Vai, Colaiuta, etc.). Also, along with being thoroughly entertained by many diverse musical styles, you would also have access to humour...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

I'm a bit late (UK time) but... Happy New Year! It might seem strange to the uninitiated, but when I look back at what things were good about 2015, and think about what I'm hoping for and looking forward to in 2016, Fractal are at or near the top of both lists! Time and Cliff wait for no man.

Winamp is shutting down. Alternate MP3 Player?

I also recommend Foobar for listening to music, and I just use Reaper for all of the other features that you require.

Expression Pedal Recommendation - Moog

+1 on the Moog pedal! The Fractal pedal hadn't been released when I bought the Moog, but they do look fantastic and would definitely be my first choice for heavy duty live work, but seeing as I mainly play at home, the Moog is the perfect low cost choice and I was very surprised by how much I...

Paypal sucks!!

I'm not sure exactly how relevant this is to this particular conversation, but when I purchased my Axe-Fx last year from G66 I was very reluctant to give PayPal so much money for them to convert my GBP into Euros, and my bank was going to charge even more and only reveal the full amount after...

Lefty but play righty?

There are quite a few of us! Mark Knopfler, Gary Moore, and Paul Simon spring to mind. My experience with strengths and weaknesses regarding technique is very similar to yours. I also wonder whether being left handed contributes to a preference for melody - right brain vs left brain etc. Lots of...

Who would you bring back?

Choosing only from the list, a collaboration between Jimi Hendrix, Freddie Mercury, John Lennon, and John Bonham. Voted for Hendrix though, one of the reasons being (as previously mentioned) it would be great to hear what he would come up with with an Axe-Fx!

Brit Floyd Presets

Yes, I read all of them. There are tips on some, but not all. Check out the Shine Intro Solo for example, just before the other info you mentioned. My apologies for not being clear enough. I should have said "Tips are in the description on the Axe-Change pages for some of the presets".

Romeo Rose - Libel and Slander against FAS

I like how Cliff put this in there to throw us off the scent. You should know that the LF waves are actually emanating from your Axe-Fx. That's what this whole thing is about! Cliff and his co-conspirators (such as Mr John Petrucci) are actually agents for an organisation that is far above...

Thanks for your kindness - It means a lot. I don't want to hijack the thread, so I'll just say this: I think you guys are all really great, and this forum is an incredible resource for all things Fractal, guitar, and music in general. I also find it very entertaining!
