    Celestion F12-X200 vs FRFR

    What are your preferences? Geez listening to it at 1:00 in the morning I shouldn't even say whet I think, but they all 3 sound very similar.. I might like the Blueamps one the best, or the GSS, but I can't make up my mind. . haha

    Fender FR-12 preamp mod : The Hissterectomy

    I still own 2 Trainwreck clones, 1 Liverpool and 1 Rocket. Both great amps with the Liverpool having much more gain than the Rocket.. I had the Ceriatone Express clone as well and sold that as I liked the Liverpool a bit more . .I also have a Allyn-Meyers Komet Concorde clone and it shares some...

    Super portable “FRFR” thoughts?

    Believe me I'm a skeptic, so it really amazed me. I bought this many years ago when it first came out (with a sub) to do a duet thing with my girlfriend, and although we put together 30 tunes, we ended up never playing gigs, (then broke up after 7 years-story of my life!) and it just sat in my...

    SO, I've never used that speaker (although I'd love to check it out) but just wanted to give some real-life 8" speaker experience. I've been using an Electrovoice ZXA1 monitor recently with my digital setup. We play in a 3 piece (plus vocalist) rock band with a very loud drummer. The ZXA1...

    I still have about 25 tube amps, and oh yea I use them. My Ax8 is very very handy and sounds great though, but there's no way I completely abandon my great amps and great cabs and fx, until I'm totally too old to carry them . I'm 64 and getting there, but not yet

    I understand to many of you this is an idiotic question, but I really hate the look of the Hot Rod Deluxe, and that's the look that the FR10/FR12 have to me. I would paint the grillcloth or do some type of artwork on it if I buy one. My only experience with that is I replaced the baffle on an...

    I'm only interested if someone has owned or compared either Fender to that Yamaha? Yes I know the DHR12m is set up more like a 'monitor' instead of backfill but from what I've read it works great as a coaxial frfr for modelers.. Thanks for any info1

    New AX8 user having random volume changes

    Oh ok , I assume you set up those modifiers/controllers yourself? If so all looks fine so far, but your patches you just uploaded don't have the CAB with them, so we can't use them without our CAB choice, but I'm sure that won't be relevant.. .on to check them out

    Yep that's another case, other than the controllers I mentioned above (which of course include Scene Controllers for cab volumes, amp volumes, amp input trims, etc,etc) . . I assume the OP bought it 'used' and the previous owner could have stuff like that set. But they're definitely not...

    Presets for live gig - how best to manage?

    Makes sense. Mostly since about 1980 I've used 2 channel Thanks appreciate it. I play about 6 places regularly and a few have crap power where I just can't use my s/c's so I always have to bring HB guitars or s/s/h guitars and just using 2 positions basically on those! Looking forward to...

    Presets for live gig - how best to manage?

    Cool, what kind of music do you play? Pardon the tangent, but I noticed 'Kinmans" .. I'm in the process of modding a bunch of my guitars (old projects that I bought and am FINALLY getting to ) and I had 2 Kinman pickups stashed away that I never even used. Thinking if using them in a...

    Presets for live gig - how best to manage?

    Great answers on this thread. My view is similar The AX8 is a TOOL. A MULTI-TOOL.. .The KING OF ALL TOOLS! ha.. Well with that said, my band does everything from 80's hair rock to old blues/funk to modern hard rock. I only need a couple of programs for each gig. I set up an expression...

    Anyone using the AX8 just for amps and cab sims ?

    I still have dozens of pedals I love and still have over 20 amps. . When I use my AX8 at gigs though I can easily program it where I don't need to use any of my other pedals. As long as you have the time and inclination/know-how it's an ALL-INCLUSIVE unit other than expression pedals...

    How I Prepare My AX8 For A Gig

    Sorry in case I missed this in 1 of your posts, but what do you tend to use for your speaker cab/monitor on stage at your gigs? Just curious. Great video once again. I LOVE writing my gig programs on this. . My amp of choice is the Atomica-High for most of my stuff. Rock on Eric

    Yorkville FRFR speakers - Made in Canada and bulletproof - some good info

    They make different lines just like most companies.. That said, I've used a Yorkville M810-2 powered mixer for my band for the past few years and it's been foolproof. I actually bought 2 and sold 1 to friends and they haven't even killed it and they kill everything. Anyway, they're mid-level...

    Headphones rabbit hole

    I haven't even felt an urge to try my studio headphones as I have some Grado sr80's and AKG M80 Mkii's that both sound just great with any of my computer /digital music tools. I think the headphone rabbit hole is a very 'positive' one and there's no reason to start with expensive ones at...

    9.02 vs 9.03 Comparison

    Me too... bolder , tighter, more clarity, sometimes less gain, more lo-mids due to what seems like a power amp damping factor. . I have no clue what I'm talking about though! What do you hear? Actually crap, my findings can't be validated as I upgraded from 7.01 to 9.02 so I don't know...
