    Ax-APE: Orange Tiny Terror

    Feedback - I've got it working and it does work but when you adjust the controls in the APE, but they do not reflect in EDIT. Even though the APE controls change volume, tone and gain, the controls in EDIT do not change. However if the controls in EDIT are changed, they do change in APE. If...

    Ax-APE: Orange Tiny Terror

    Wow this is what I have been thinking of for a LONG time. It's exactly how I wish to get to know all the amps. I actually suggested something like this in the wish list but got shot down by the purists. Perhaps you should change the name labels in the graphic so as not to infringe copyright and...

    Lots of noise all of a sudden *****

    Thanks shepo1, those are going to be my first steps providing I can aquire the time which is proving difficult lately :-x I did also think that about trying a new preset cause my favourite home made preset which is very high gain, was extremely quite to the point of NO noise when not playing but...

    Lots of noise all of a sudden *****

    Thanks guys for all the responses, really appreciate it. As I feared it probably will have to be a process of elimination which is just a pain in the backside because when I first got the Axe I had some nasty interference noise which lastest a couple of weeks. Tore my hair out for it to just...

    Lots of noise all of a sudden *****

    Hello, Got my Jackson back from the luthiers after a fret redress and setup and plugged it in excitedly to give it a blast only to be greeted by a ton of amp noise and yet nothing had changed in my little studio setup. After opening Axe edit and having it automatically update it told me I now...

    No sound

    This happened to me the other day also. I was trying to setup a line 6 foot controller within Ableton, to change preset in the Axe. I got it working ok but quite a few times the signal from the axe just disappeared, total bypass worked so I know it was a problem with the Axe. A couple of times I...

    recording via the USB

    Are you running the Axe into a USB hub. A LOT of audio gear hates going through a hub, I've tore my hair a few times cause something was causing a crash due to something plugged into a hub and I did not realise. If so, plug direct.

    What is the material in guitar cases?

    Nice case! I seriously considered drawers but couldn't be bothered making them, even though I make cabinet furniture for a living LOL! Cheers I'll take a look but might be too pricey in the end to get shipped to UK although I love the idea of maybe different patterns.

    What is the material in guitar cases?

    I'm building a guitar rack and would like to line part of it with the same kind of plush material guitar cases are generally lined with. I'm guessing so far crushed velvet??? Anyone know? Cheers

    New IEM's, either rubbish, faulty or it's me, I can't tell...

    Had a bit of time to try them out a bit better today and things have improved big time. After getting them seated more correctly it has helped a LOT. I know everybody said about it but I am surprised about how easy it is not to have them seated correctly even when you think you have. Playing...

    New IEM's, either rubbish, faulty or it's me, I can't tell...

    Perhaps my perception off how a bass is produced is wrong but when you get that deep low bass, that is when it will start rumbling. Those low frequencies are what can vibrate stuff and pushes air around more. If you put your hand on a loud speaker casing, you will feel the bass well before the...

    I know i shouldnt compare them to my 650's but it is a good benchmark to perhaps try and obtain in an IEM.

    Just spent the last hour with and have got a little sonewhere. I managed to get an even better fit by opening my mouth wide when inserting and pushing them down towards my bottom jaw while pushing them in. I realised they came with four different sized tips and after repeatedly trying them all...

    Thanks for the explanation on a good seal, Chris. I'm certainly going to try harder when I get chance to play with them over the weekend although I am sure Im getting a good fit as I've been wearing cheap ones at work for years also cause of my job Ive become acustomed to putting the sponge ear...

    Building a Carbon Fiber Rack Case, some info/help needed

    Hi, Like yourself I too run a Cnc machine using cad cam but in a joinery shop, which is great having the access and ability to produce some of my wild baked ideas.

    New IEM's, either rubbish, faulty or it's me, I can't tell...

    I did forget to mention that the fit and seal on them were good. Even though they are a large generic fit, they do fit great and are pretty comfortable. They only come with three airs of silicone tips, all same shape just different sizes. As I said I tried the foam one's of my skullcandy's which...

    Hey, Just bought a new pair of Inear Stage Diver SD-3 IEM's, InEar Monitoring - Universelles InEar-Monitoring - StageDiver-Serie. They are only for use in my studio which is an overkill I know but being only able to play when the little one is in bed means headphones are a must. I do have a...

    How do you guys stop your wife talking?

    Put headphones on. That way she can talk uninterrupted and you can play uninterrupted, and then she may get the hint your not actually listening. Works for me ;)

    SERIOUS Crackle problem

    WTF!! Got home from work today and thought I would just try the Axe out of curiosity before getting the conditioner tomorrow and the crackle has gone! What the hell is going on? This is definite either the pylons or I'm guessing something from my next door neighbour. Yeah maybe the static...

    Thanks vAmp for the encouragement! I really need it cause at the moment my problems sucks big time! You kinda flagged up a suspicion I had that was trying to ignore. At the back of my garden there is a strip of land that runs parallel to the back of my house and unfortunately its its empty...

    SERIOUS Crackle problem

    Right, just got home and tested. Turned all electrics off at the mains except the socket circuit for the floor of my studio and I still have that nasty crackle. The only thing on that circuit switched on is the Axe and I changed the guitar lead so I'm thinking more now my unit is faulty. Another...

    SERIOUS Crackle problem

    Ok cheers, well maybe I will try and swap out the dimmer and hope that might work, I'm sure it's not my cable as it's a very good quality one but I shall try another one. What I find really strange is that it has all of a sudden happened, that's the bit I don't get. If I get chance when I get in...

    SERIOUS Crackle problem

    I have a XL running 7.06. I do have a dimmer in my studio but I turned it off, can't see how it would affect when turned off but could be wrong. Yeah does sound a bit like a motor affecting it but everything was switched off and even unplugged. All that was left on in the house was a couple of...

    SERIOUS Crackle problem

    Just turned on my unit to play and got this awful crackling noise. It's only a couple months old and since I got it I've been scratching my head getting rid of interference from a rack tuner and then a ground loop which I cured but now this! I ended up turning everything in my studio off except...

    Korg tuner interferance

    Yes you do lose Output 2 in the process but like I already suggested using something like an MXR a/b switch before the Axe, or whatever to split the signal if required. I have no need for Output 2 as yet :)

    Korg tuner interferance

    I was reading Cooper Carter's thread about his streaming class and came across this question on how to hook a tune up in the same way but using a MFC How do I run my rack tuner (Stroborack) into the Fractal so that when I hit 'Tuner' on the MFC 101 MK III it mutes the channel and send the...

    Korg tuner interferance

    Gearjunkie if you mean can you use it while the main signal is muted then i'm not sure how to setup up the axe to do it but i'm sure you can with a mfc. One sure way of doing that though would be to use something like a mxr a/b switch. Its a great tuner btw, extremely easy to see, looks great...

    Korg tuner interferance

    SORTED! After getting in touch with Korg, they finally decided that yes it probably is a ground loop and gave me the most obvious solution that I had to laugh and was slightly embarrassed I had not thought of it. So I thought I'd let you all know in case you may run into similar problems...

    Korg tuner interferance

    Nothing wrong with the tuner on the axe fx but its a lot easier to see the korg pitchblack from a few feet away, plus it is always on so you do not need to get close to the axe to switch it on.

    Korg tuner interferance

    I'm not electrical minded so if you were to explain it, I probably won't understand but would really appreciate some solutions. Like I said the weirdest bit is that even with the tuner turned OFF, with a lead left plugged in and NOT connected at all to the Axe Fx, I still get the interferance...

    Korg tuner interferance

    Had my XL a week now, WOW!!! Thats for another post if I can stop playing it! Trouble is I got a brand new Korg Pitchblack rack tuner to go with and I'm picking up interferance from it, mainly when it lights up. At first it was OMG it's the XL but thankfully not as I narrowed it to the tuner...

    Iron Maiden vocalist in a dogfight @ Sonisphere

    I was there. Saw the dogfight, was pretty awesome. It was great weather for it and certainly something unique for a metal festival. Maiden rocked it too, they put on a great show. Metallica last night though were pretty amazing too. The sound was so tight I could actually hear Rob's bass for...

    Gibson suck

    Thats exactly what it looks like. Totally unnaceptable and to me does not look desirable because it is a gold top. Perhaps if it was a see thru finish then it might look ok as it shows the guitat is made of wood which is a living thing. But a gold top is a colour finish, not meant to look keyed!

    Gibson suck

    Okay I think I figured it, hope this works I still think this is exceptionally poor quality from Gibson and saying it looks aged is not the answer. If you want it aged, you buy aged, you want new, you buy (or think you buy) new. And no Robboman, my mate (nor myself), was ever aware of the...

    Gibson suck

    Wow! Indeed for that money, I would expect it to be flawless. My mate didn't pay that much but still, you still would certainly expect better quality from Gibson. Although watching their factory tour on Youtube, shows them churning them out at an incredible rate, it shows that their standards...

    Gibson suck

    My mate has always wanted a Les Paul, so he finally saved the cash and bought a LP Studio a few months back. When he went to play it the other day, it had parallel vertical cracks along the body. Turns out it's the lacquer cracking. He keeps it in his music room and it hasn't left it since he...

If I connected the Axe to a USB hub and...
