Axe-Fx in Nederland en België

Workshop-achtig is goed plan denk ik. Zelf heb ik vaak het idee dat mijn sounds met wat tips van echte experts snel verbeterd kunnen worden, terwijl je daar zelf wellicht nooit achter komt. Dus workshops waarin experts je helpen om je sounds beter te maken zou wel handig zijn. Maar ik weet niet...

Axe-Fx in Nederland en België

Hoi Alexander, ik kom er net bij toeval achter via een post op fb dat er ook een Nederlands deel is op dit forum. Ik heb sinds 1,5 jaar een AX8 en vind het echt een top apparaat. Het lijkt me leuk om fractal goeroe’s zoals jij (dank voor al je bijdragen aan de fractal community!) en wellicht ook...

FracTool - for power users only

Thanks for the quick reply! That explains a lot. How can you determine from the preset itself on what firmware it was based? But in short 'old' presets can not be converted with Fractool, unless your own device is not yet updated, correct? By the way I bought your fracpad and it is excellent...

FracTool - for power users only

I am trying to convert an Axe FII preset from below thread into an AX8 preset. https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/clean-fender-funk-with-8-scenes-and-envelope-filters.117089/ And in fractool itself it all seems fine. The settings in the AX FII preset and in the to AX8 converted preset look...

Confused with AMP blocks and F/W updates

Hi Paul, that is totally correct. Initially I was unsure about the FW concept due to the parameter I missed when making the default (created in way as Tommy described) same as original again. But once it was clear as stated above I improved all my presets by mainly using the new default...

Confused with AMP blocks and F/W updates

I am now finished with updating my main presets for my AX8 after the update to FW 7.01. And the end result is amazing. All my sounds have improved. In almost all cases I have used the new defaults based on the 'soft reset', except for the following parameters which I tweaked the way I liked it /...

Confused with AMP blocks and F/W updates

Mystery solved!! I indeed overlooked one parameter. It was Harmonics in the preamp. This has apparently quite an effect on the character of the sound but also on the volume! Thanks all for the replies! My post above makes no sense anymore. AX8 is perfect!

Confused with AMP blocks and F/W updates

If this is the case these two presets the old one and the new one with the same setting can sound different on the same FW? Or is the remark from Pwrmac7600 correct that I must have missed a setting in the new one?

Thanks I will check again. If that's the case my statements make no sense!

Confused with AMP blocks and F/W updates

I understand and agree what you are saying. But that still does not explain my first question. Why are two presets with exactly the same settngs sounding different in the same FW version (the untouched old one and then one based on a reset and then I applied the same settings)?

Confused with AMP blocks and F/W updates

Yesterday I updated to FW 7.01 on my AX8. The advise on this forum is to do a soft reset of the AMP. But I had presets which I tweaked to sound the way I like it and when using the advised way of working my sound gets worse. This was eg. the case for Herbie Ch3. When I do a soft reset and then...

FracTool - for power users only

Thanks, I have seen that, but I hoped that you would have it in one list. Thanks anyhow for the answer and for the great tools you make. I checked the Fracpad info yesterday also and that looks cool as well and maybe I will buy it later on as well. I am just starting in this wonderful world of...

FracTool - for power users only

Hi Al, I am a new AX8 user and still trying to find my way through all the amps :-). In your tool there is the amps compare function, which lists all the amps including their real names. This is a handy list, but unfortunately there is no export function to excel. Do you have this list available...
