Post Your FC-12 and FC-6 Pedalboards Here

Made a custom pedal board today out of stock aluminum from tractor supply. It is 38x12. Pretty happy with it.

Anyone else have this since 19?

I just updated yesterday from 18.08 (been busy). When I first fired it up my volume pedal was at about 50% bust my patch was full volume. I am working now, so I don't remember if I turned the axe on before I plugged in the mfc. I'll check tonight Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

Rolling your volume knob off

Yes, it does. Very well. It will not only do it on a mid gain amp, but on the high gain stuff as well.

FXUnits RAC12 review

I concur, I just received mine monday. Put it in the rack after work, 15 mins before practice. Fired it up and it worked without doing anything. Much quicker adjustment during practice! I still haven't hooked it up to a pc, cause work... but am looking forward to the update they already...

Which cab for doubleverb ??

Low roll off (to kill boom/woof) and high cut, will bring more mids out and balance the amp a bit.

Guitar Cab Guy Going FRFR...opinions on Atomic CLR NEO, Mission Gemini 1X12...others?

I might be the lone wolf here, but I use jbl prx715's and they kill, and I run my moniter mix with my guitar through the board (x32) I have no complaints and leave 4 half stacks sitting unused every practice/gig. Just my 2cents

Low-cost Wah Controller

You can use any expression pedal you want. Hell, you can use a volume pedal. The mission pedal with switch is what I use, but you can edit all the wah settings on the axe so... if you are comfy with an existing wah pedal, find the expression pedal version and set it up how you like it. Ps...

What Front of room Powered Monitors did you settle on?

what should I expect FW update

You could back up 12.02 load up 15.xx and work on it a bit, save it, and then reload 12.02. That way you can do it in baby steps.

Better than friedman and 5150 on axefx?

I like a jcm800mod and rectifier orange and tweak to get rid of sizzle. For live stuff. It has balls. It does not translate well to recording. I am new to the axe fx(any variation) and have found alot of the sounds sit in a mix well but sound like shit with the band. I am running it with...
