    Axe-Fx III wait list: Let us know when you get notified...

    Good point. Lets hope managers cracked down on Net use, like they should. Also, i'm in the afternoon. How many people do you think ordered while commuting? Not many. Then again when your stuck in traffic.....was it a Friday? :D

    AX 8 Audio Interface?

    One thing to consider with SPDIF (which is maybe a good idea), is make sure you can monitor the SPDIF input. The NI Komplete Audio 6 cannot monitor SPDIF apparently, so you would need to run it through a DAW. I know the Focusrite can, and probably the Roland au55 (as examples). Don't get the...

    AX8 Edit Assist?

    The expensive option.

    Stock Presets too bassy?

    I was a bit surprised by the stock presets. It's the first time where someone had done the presets for me....out of the box. A few companies have ok presets, that I like, most not so. Many variables.

    AX8 has arrived - need help with S/PDIF and Roland Interface

    Yes, but i'm fairly sure the solution to his problem wouldn't require spending another $1000 :D

    New Video Tutorial: AX8 - Beyond Basics Extra - Footswitch Strategies

    I ordered early enough to get the switch video for free, but am curious as exactly what my $10 gets me moving forward. I'm just a little confused as to what's what. I've followed the threads as best I can, but i've missed something probably. If i'm just really obtuse no need to reply :D Thanks...

    Cheap(ish) audio interface with S/PDIF?

    Sure, I see your point about diminishing returns. However, I do think you are omitting some things here. Anyway, the tread is about cheap, so yeah.

    Cheap(ish) audio interface with S/PDIF?

    ESI U24 XL $129 US Komplete Audio 6 Roland UA55 Quad Capture (around $220US) Tascam 366 (I bought one for around $100US used) The ESI is very small and doesn't even have and knobs on it, hence it's reliance on a computer. The Focusrite 6i6 and (possibly, all though undocumented) the Roland...

    Best Audio Interface (that will not color sound) to use with AX8?

    To chime in on this SPDF thing. I have a couple Apple's with the optical inputs. Presently, I'm using a 6i6 with SPDF, but I just noticed that you can get cheap ($15) Digital coaxial to optical adapters on Amazon. I'm wondering if anyone has done this? Also, I would be curious as to...

    Recording via SPDIF - Scarlett audio inferface

    If you have it hooked as a USB interface it may be forcing it to 44khz. You would have to set it in Logic or whatever, to 48khz. I had this problem at first. (I cant remember if in standalone if I had this problem for whatever reason , but I wouldn't be surprised) in Logic Pro X, the setting is...

    Ax8 s/pdif Logic Pro

    Logic go to 'File/project settings/audio' is the sample rate for an audio track. Not exactly out in the open :D It's not a global setting, so if your Mixcontrol sticks at 44khz, the setting will have changed in Logic.

    AX8 connected to AX8Edit over bluetooth

    I tried this at one point and experienced the time-out. Never could get it to work. I think it probably could work if there was some minor code adjustment for the this, don't know. But I doubt this would be a priority for them.

    Best solutions to address the "No headphones output" issue.

    I'm using the Digital coaxial output into a Fiio E17k. There are a few portable little headphone amps with the coaxial i've noticed. Ibasso makes a few, and they all work apparently, as the chips auto-adjust to (48khz/24bit). I think this circumvents the shortcoming rather well, considering...

    Headphones????

    Portable headphone amps are really cheap and battery life is in weeks (or months). Just make sure it doesn't do any signal stuff, as that will utterly kill battery life. You can get decent ones for $20. This will take any confusion about impedance out of the equation, without much fuss.

    How long did it take you to get your set up where you like/dialed in ?

    about 4 hours, over about 10 days. Takes a bit of effort. Not bad.

    New AX8 Owner, am I doing something wrong?

    I imagine there will be substantially more powerful version of this within a year or two. Something to trade up too. I'm certainly not unhappy with the present arrangement.

    New AX8 Owner, am I doing something wrong?

    I suppose you could look at it like: normal operation is low res, low density verb, but with the 'option' to tweak the verb, (at the expense of other effects). Because, it sure looks like verb is the culprit here Which would just mean basically, that the factory presets could be adjusted...

    Ear phone into AX8

    you mean AX8, right :D No it's the output impedance. Headphones have very low impedance (most that is), around 8 ohm up to 32 (several are much higher of course). The output impedance of the AX8 is 600 ohms, and it's expecting a very high impedance, which headphones don't have; hence the...

    Ear phone into AX8

    That's a great idea. I posted about the EH item, which is mono. I never use stereo for this stuff so I overlooked this (rather important point...sorry)

    Ear phone into AX8

    very true, but there's a serious impedance mismatch (Wiki). Sound is....not ideal

    12" x 24" pedalboard ideas

    I think building your own is a great idea. No sense wasting money on fancypants, when there's Home Depot. Unless of course you like something like a Nova 24 (Like I did).

    AX8 - Best way to augment and save CPU? (Delay vs Reverb)

    Put that ol' H9 workhorse to use :D I have an H9. It is remarkably versatile. (sounds decent also)

    Ear phone into AX8

    Mixers are a good idea, but perhaps overkill for the simplest solution. I have my eye on the Yamaha mixers, very cool. But I probably don't need it. Thing is, I have a few USB interfaces (as most of us do), but they require setup, and again, are not a simple solution.

    Ear phone into AX8

    There's an item tailor made for this. I've had one for a while. Sound is very clean BTW, and battery lasts for ever. Electro-Harmonix Headphone Amp Portable Practice Amp It's just a headphone amp, but takes a mono patch cable input and sums it for headphones. It's also designed just for this...

    It works! $99 Windows 10 Tablet Running AX8-Edit

    Wow, this thing is better than the Puc+ and costs half as much. :D Thing is, I'm getting a 'time out' message when downloading blocks. Now, I don't have a direct USB connection to my Mac (maybe latter today-need dongle) to see if I can take care of that 'hardwired' and then use the BT midi...

    It works! $99 Windows 10 Tablet Running AX8-Edit

    I have it running on a Macbook 12". I suppose I could use my Surface Pro for the high tech thing, then again I don't think this Puc+ works on WIndows (just Mac and iOS), not sure.

    It works! $99 Windows 10 Tablet Running AX8-Edit

    Just a heads up Just got my AX8 (thanks), and one of the first things I did was see to if the AX8-edit would work with a Zivix Puc+ wireless bluetooth midi device; It seems to. (there might be issues). So I can have AX8-edit running without being tethered to the floor unit. I tried this with...
