Adjusting the level does not cause ax8 edit to see the change...

I am running the latest firmware...when running, attached to AX8-Edit, if I adjust the level via the level knob on the AX8 the AX8 indicates the patch is edited...AX8-Edit does not...shouldn't they both report edited???? Thanks, Rick

Organ Patch

Hi Looking for anyone that has a convincing organ patch they would be willing to share! I am not opposed to building my own either, but I need a place to start. I have read about using a pitch block and having one voice an octave down and another voice two octaves down...I would think there...

Looper

So I am really trying to rely on the looper in the AX8 versus bringing my Boomerang. Honestly the looper in the AX8 is pretty nice...I have been pleasantly surprised. When I assign the looper to a foot switch why when I press the looper switch it does it only show the looper controls for a...

Can I do this?

I would like to have a preset with multiple scenes that has among other things a wah and whammy block. So in one scene the wah is activated when I move the expression pedal (the whammy is off). In another scene of that preset I would like to have the whammy effect active when I move the...

MIDI slave support

Can the Ax8 run as a MIDI slave? I am currently running a boomerang looper off of a beatbuddy drum machine for duo gigs. It would be nice if I could use the looper in the AX8 as a slave to the beatbuddy. The boomerang looper supports, start, stop and tempo sync. Can the AX8 do any of that? I...

block settings document

Hi Sorry if this has been mentioned before... Is there a document that details all the settings of the available blocks? Right now I am taking an educated and uneducated guess at stuff but it would be nice to know what I am messing with at times. Thanks!

I feel bad...

Unbelievable...I am so used to having to tweak the crap out of stuff I am not sure I am getting my money's worth. I plop down an amp, cab, delay and reverb...tweak a couple things and BOOM it sounds great! Why did you Fractal people keep this secret from me? I spent countless hours chasing tone...

Volume boost

Instead of using an EQ block for a lead boost....is there a way to globally create a volume boost block using a switch that is available to every preset? Is the EQ the only way to do this?

Display Setting?

So I am trying to learn the front panel of the AX8 and it actually is pretty intuitive. I was wondering though, is there a display mode (setting) where the name of the patch is larger? I think trying to see that from the floor will be a challenge...:confused: Any info is appreciated...

multiple mics on cab

Does the AX8 allow multiple mics on a cab? So for example, can I have a SM57 and a ribbon mic and blend or does it work completely differently then that? Or are they impulses only and you get what you get other than EQ capability etc...BTW I have never used an impulse to know the benefits...

Newbie X/Y scene switch question

So looking at the AX8 image it appears switches 1 - 8 can: 1. control which active scene 2. control X versus Y 3. and something else? I guess I am trying to wrap my head around how that works. Do F1,F2, or F3 enable the mode to determine which parameter the switches F1-F8 will affect...
