    FM9 and 2 guitars

    Agreed for the backup options (I have it in my AX8 by the way with a 2nd degraded chain - no AMP - but it works). I still wonder whether it’s viable as a primary system or just as backup. Being the one changing the scenes is no problem to me. I could also give the 2nd guitar a pedal and 2...

    FM9 and 2 guitars

    Hello all! Proud AX8 owner (since... since as soon as I could!), I'm now registered to the waitlist. I was wondering if they are limitation for using FM9 with 2 guitars? Basically, we now have 2 AMPs + 2 CABs, several inputs, so I guess I could perfectly use an FM9 for 2 guitar players? How...

    Guitar feedback with AX8

    Do you have a separated noise gate in your chain or do you use the "simple" one which is at the first place of the chain? Just in case, check both. I have a Telecaster with noiseless mic, not an easy guitar to get feedback due to the mic, and I get feedback depending on my patches. Overdrive...

    Getting an acoustic sound from my electric guitar

    Hello. The preset that I use, I'm sure it's a preset that was shared some days back on this forum, but I can't remember where or when. So sorry for not mentionning the "real" author of this one. I used it with a Telecaster (bridge pickup) and it sounds lovely to me! Let me know what you think...

    I can understand that some persons do business selling presets (and I bought some myself). But half of the postes of this forum are about presets to sell or demos of presets to sell and it's annoying. It's like a mailbox full of spams. It's killing the interest of this forum.

    EVH Brown Sound patch sample

    Do any of you guy’s run the cab Sims going into a power amp or effects return on your amp?

    On my side, I made a preset with a specific route for OUT2 bypassing the CAB but I have some "ugly unwanted distortion". Sounds a bit like a AMP without a CAB, or some "digital distortion". Something noticeable and not pretty. I didn't check to have the CAB on the route for this but I will. I...

    Using 2 guitar inputs (electric & Piezo) to 2 separate output

    I never tried but it should be possible. With your layout, you could keep the AMP block for input 1, keep your input 2 as is, blend the 2 signals in a stereo signal, put this signal in a stereo CAB block with 2 different IR (1 for electric, 1 for magnetic) and split the signal after the CAB to...

    Help - new to AX8

    Yes, it's the best of the 2 worlds! The AX8 allows us to be flexible for small gigs with "unexpected materials"! There are a couple of tricks to know to manage that quickly (like the global EQ for each output). You'll find out when you'll receive it :) (feel free to ask other questions then)

    No. But you can plug your ax8 in the return loop of the amp if you deactivate the cab block. Look at yek presets as a starting point.

    Low Cut, High Cut

    Hi all, I do like to analyze how people are doing their presets. In Yek presets (from which I learnt so much... thanks again!), I often see low/high cuts in the cab block for the out1 (FOH) but I don't remember the same EQing for OUT2. I see several explanations to this (if I remember correctly...

    Hey all! Newb bassist here. Need to know if the AX-8 can do this...

    AFII seems better but with the AX8, you could have 2 routes with different sounds for each. - 1st route with amp / cab, 2nd one with clean boosted sound (and eventually a drive) without Amp / Cab, just EQ. or - 1 amp / cab, set up to stereo, to have 1 route for clean sound through the amp (left...

    An comment on this with a "solution" that I never tried (so this may not be a solution :) As you have an Axe Fx, prepare a patch that use your 2 inputs, with 2 amps and 2 cabs, panned as you do usally and have the 2 guitars played through it. It may help identify where the problem is coming.
