    Axe III USB bandwidth question

    I don't know. The only thing I do know is that when I start a blank project with the Axe as audio interface it works fine, everything is fast and reliable. When the number of audio tracks gets very high things start to choke up. Increasing the buffer size helps but when I add more tracks...

    Axe III USB bandwidth question

    Thanks guys, but I've set my buffers all the way up to the max and still have issues with skipping in high track count projects. FYI I have several projects with track count in the hundreds so that's probably the issue. Also as I mentioned I do not have the issue with Firewire connection using...

    Axe III USB bandwidth question

    When I use my AxeIIXL+ as a PC audio interface I run into bandwidth issues vs. my outboard Firewire interface. When I get my track count very high I'll get stuttering, skipping and other issues forcing me back to my outboard Firewire. The PC is not the bottleneck, everything is run on 100% SSD...

    Why 512 Presets?

    I can see someone who is very active with recording tracks wanting to create a preset for each song that they record so they could go back months or years later and find the exact tone(s) that were used. It sounds nuts but if you did a few songs a week you could end up at the limit in a few...

    Reamping using only a USB connection?

    OK so when you're reamping via USB you have to disable the guitar input and switch it to USB, then set it back to the guitar input when you want to record live again? Thanks

    Reamping using only a USB connection?

    I've been searching tutorial videos and all of them instruct how to reamp using either an analog cable connection or a SPDIF cable connection.. I thought that the USB connection made having any other connection unnecessary for reamping? Thank you,

    USB audio out - Only getting clean signal

    Decided to try USB direct audio for the first time and am only getting clean signal sent to my DAW. Can someone please link me to the proper tutorial or advise me what setting to change so I can get both clean and post-FX output available to my DAW? Thank you.

    Some epic metal with asian influences

    Really well done. I appreciate the tips very much.. hopefully they will help my mixes sound less anemic. :-) I'll have to pick up heavy hitters vol2 as I'm still using vol1. Didn't even know there was a new version until now.

    Some epic metal with asian influences

    That was quick, thank you! Also I just watched another video of yours 'Unstoppable Momentum'. I'm assuming that also used the afxII and not the helix? You mentioned you used the Mesa Mark IV lead bright deep but aside from the heavy hitters vol 2 impulse what effects were used? That is a really...

    Some epic metal with asian influences

    Hi Jon, great stuff as usual. If you wouldn't mind sharing.. are you recording straight into your daw via the axefx usb or are you running it through an audio interface first? Are you using Reaper daw?

    Metal Instrumental featuring Andy James - Q6, ML IRs, GGD Drums

    That was my conclusion as well, until I tried about every possible variation using all of the latest plugs, compressors, etc. Mixing around for thousands of hours and just can't seem to hit that kind of volume with that kind of clarity. The only thing I haven't yet tried is a newer DAW. I'm...

    Metallica 'Hardwired... to self-destruct' guitar tones, presets and video!

    Great patches Jon! My favorites so far are Unkind and Self Destruct. I have EMGs too and these tone matches sound more lively than most of my cab sims. Lots of presence in all frequencies. Really heavy yet still layers well. Were you able to tone match any bass tracks from this album?

    A visit From the Dead - King Diamond guitar cover

    Thanks everyone, sorry for the late reply I was away for a couple of days. There are two amps that I used, one was a 5153 Red with a bit of EQ boost to the mids for the rhythm guitars, the other is the Mark IIC++ for the lead guitar parts. Acoustic was mic'd with an SM57 and recorded at the...

    A visit From the Dead - King Diamond guitar cover

    He's an amazing guitarist. When I was a teen back in the late 80's I made myself a tape with nothing but the solo breaks from Portrait, Abigail, Them and Conspiracy and would loop it in my car. Denner and Blakk were also great on those albums.

    Insanity - (by Andy La Rocque) from King Diamond's 'The Eye'

    Thanks, those are a Takamine G-series mic'd with an SM-57 and also using the guitar's piezo pickup plugged in at the same time using the USA clean on the AxeFX. There are usually two or three takes of that stack at any given time, then there is a layer of USA clean using an Ibanez MMM1 with...

    EVH fans, check this out! (5153 amp & new OH 412 EDVH pre-rola greenbacks)

    I didn't know that Slate made a compressor, I'll have to check that out. I'm currently using his drum samples. The way you're able to get the tone so loud and punchy while still being clean is impressive so I was thinking I either need to update my DAW (from Sonar 8 Producer) or my compressor...

    Insanity - (by Andy La Rocque) from King Diamond's 'The Eye'

    It's some of the album art. It was a concept album dealing with witch trials and corruption within the church. Hard to believe that was really a thing once, a sad chapter in history. Thanks for listening :-)

    Insanity - (by Andy La Rocque) from King Diamond's 'The Eye'

    This one is a mostly acoustic instrumental. I tried to keep it as close to the original as I could. I used USA Clean electric beneath some mic'd and plugged acoustic guitars and Mesa IIC++ for the lead. Thanks for listening,

    Peace Of Mind - Cover - Andy LaRocque - King Diamond

    Mellow one here, might put someone to sleep :-) This is probably the slowest track LaRocque ever made but I enjoy it. Most of the tones are from USA clean and one called 'Acoustic Bliss' I pulled off Axechange.

    Hard Rock solo - fwQ4

    I was just playing with that amp for the first time last night and picking out some IRs for it. It seems surprisingly versatile. Sounds super heavy but when putting it in a mix it has a very vocal quality about it. I downloaded your patch, thanks!

    No surprise the drums sound a bit thin and I agree. Mixing on headphones probably contributed to that, I also need more experience mixing with this kit. Thanks for listening! :-)

    Dimmu Borgir cover - In Deaths Embrace

    My first post to the AxeFX wall. More of a remake from scratch without vocals (I can't sing), don't know what amps they used on original so these aren't matched. Mixed through headphones so not the most polished either. Forgot to mention on the video slide; bass amp used is Mesa 400 and the...

    Thank you, and thank you to RDH as well for the replies. Sounds great, I'll upgrade tomorrow.

Or is it once you decide to write...
