    For sale is my "second" AxeFX3. I bought this as a practice unit so that my main gig rig didn't need to be lugged up into my rehearsal space. I no longer need the unit. I'm in the UK (south). Unit comes complete with all paperwork / packaging etc. £2400. For sale also is my remaining FC-6...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 22.00 Public Beta #5 (Beta 11)

    Maybe I don’t understand, but I don’t follow the logic of mismatched speakers in a ir-capture like this. The virtual mic is in front of ONE speaker and we are moving it around relative to that. Further away you might get aspects of the other speaker(s) within the sound but predominantly the...

    Have you got 1.13 on the FC12 Mk2 and 1.12 on the FC12 Mk1? I read that newer fc12 (nov22 onwards) need the 1.13 firmware to operate correctly.

    Implemented Tuner mute only input being used as a detector

    It seems that currently the input selector does not have any relation to mute for the tuner function. The mute is an all or nothing affair at the input or output side. It would be nice for multiple instrument scenarios to be able to only mute the input that is being used as a detector or mute a...

    Axe-Edit to support "SideCar"

    Cool. I must be doing something wrong then
  37. simonp54

    Axe-Fx III foot controllers

    The problem you will come to is that you end up doing at least twice the amount of setup for controlling all these things. With the FC6 / 12 you don't really do that as they are so integrated. I just wish the small scribble screens were a bit more visible. Except for that they are exceptional.

    Axe-Edit to support "SideCar"

    Wonder if there is a big hurdle for AxeEdit to support Mac SideCar? It would help me in my desk control space. I could have AxeEdit running on the Mac Laptop but visualised on the iPad. would be a nice extra control surface.
  39. simonp54

    Axe-Fx III foot controllers

    You can control a reasonable amount of things from any ”midi” controller but a lot of the advanced integration options aren’t possible with just a midi controller. The FC6 and FC12 are kinda wired into the spinal column of the AxeFXIII. They are NOT MIDI controllers. They use Faslink2 to...

    Axe-Fx III and Mac mini M1 - Reaper and Garage Band don't receive audio from Axe-Fx III

    Not a Bug Low Cut not in Hz

    FractalAudio said... “It impedance scales the capacitors in the input network.”... that sounds “hardware ish”. How would the FM3 catch up if it is hardware related? or are these virtual capacitors (DSP)?
  45. simonp54

    Not a Bug Low Cut not in Hz

    that’s why I (indirectly) asked... Comparing between AFX3 and FM3. FW14.00 and FW1.06 Is the implementation different but achieving the same? Therefore if the drive block in the AFX3 shows 20Hz for low cut and the FM3 shows 6.15, are they equivalent? I’m trying to copy / migrate presets

    Midi Routing Question

    the previous post should allow the rjm to send messages to the other connected devices. It doesn’t obviously address the issue of enabling the AxeFX to do that, because the thru won’t send from the AxeFX. You “could” do something “a bit naughty“, if the rjm can forward any received midi...

    Midi Routing Question

    Do you need messages back from the amp selector? If not, the connect it to the thru of the AxeFX and programme the GT22 to send the appropriate messages on scene change (realise that this might not work if the GT22 doesn’t have settings per preset). [the GT22 connected to midi in and out on AxeFX]
  56. simonp54

    Midi Routing Question

    make the AxeFx the master of the amp switching midi messages and make the AxeFX Slave to the GT22. possibly needing another device like a midi splitter the Midi Out on the AxeFX is correct in only sending out stuff it generates.
