AES - Axe FX output to RME UFX II not working

Got it fixed. In the Fireface Settings had to set Optical 2 In to ADAT 2. But then I got feedback so had to mute the AES inputs in Totalmix. All working again now. Thanks.

AES - Axe FX output to RME UFX II not working

MADI is not applicable to the UFX II. MADIface Series is just the name of the settings app. Tried the Word clock in without any joy.

AES - Axe FX output to RME UFX II not working

Tested the cables with a CT100 tester. Also tried using a short mic cable. I'd try swapping the AES cables around but I'd have to tear the entire room apart. The Axe FX is definitely receiving the clock. I tried switching around the clock multiple times but just tried again but doesn't work.

AES - Axe FX output to RME UFX II not working

That's for Digital Output 2 which is currently unused. And that setting is on my RME UFX II which the problem is Input. The RME Output is working fine.

AES - Axe FX output to RME UFX II not working

I occasionally use my Axe FX 3 for re-amping. This used to work but not today. The clock is synced fine with RME as Master and Axe FX using AES. The Axe FX is receiving AES input and will play to the speaker connected directly to the Axe FX but will not output to RME thru AES. Cable tests fine...

Wish Gallien Krueger 800RB amp

I have a 1st Gen GK 400RB I still use on occasion. Just seems While I still have a number of guitar & bass amps, this is the only one I can't get 100% match on the Axe FX 3 for what I need.

Bass patches

Its a personal choice. I have one preset with SVT amp and a Marshall (guitar) cabinet which works for some things. Sometimes think outside the box :) I used to play live & studio at one time with a pre-CBS Bassman and a Bandmaster 2x12"cabinet (never blew the speakers and still have it with...

Best way to connect Axe-Fx III?

The 2i2 direct monitor is in Mono only. I've used it. You have to use monitoring back from your DAW to get stereo. Or alternatively the 2i4 (i use in my bedroom) has a switch for direct monitoring between Mono & Stereo.

What makes more sense: FC-12 or Behringer FCB1010 for at home use only?

Guessing no one tried searching the forums. But here is a post that someone gave step by step how to program their FCB1010 with their AXE FX III WITHOUT a chip. https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/axe-fx-iii-changing-scenes-stomp-pedal-or-anyhing-you-want-with-fcb1010-no-uno-chip.141749/

I own an AXE FX 3 but still use my AXE FX II. I've used (other peoples') Kemper off & on. I do all kinds of music. Jazz, pop, rock, metal and everything in between as well as other instruments than just guitar. The Axe FX definitely sounds better. Especially with the latest firmware, much...

I still use the FCB1010 with my AXE FX II. Eureka chip so did not have to do any programming at all. Just had to set the midi CC's for a few things. Have had no issues. I just bought a second AXE FX 3 and got the FC-6 with it for live use. Practically plug & play. Honestly for home use if not...

Everyone has to start somewhere. Including everyone one of us. Whether its playing in a band or writing an Axe FX preset. Its enthusiasm that drives us to work harder. Hate to see it get tamped down.

Best bedroom setup

"Studio Sound" is a subjective label. For some it means the room. But almost every studio room has a unique sound. They can range from very dead to fairly alive. Some professional studios have acoustic issues unacceptable to some but possibly desirable for a particular sound. some people think...

AxeFx in acoustic treated bedroom vs. non-treated bedroom?

As I said, Accurate is subjective. Both whether a person truly wants accuracy. And what is accuracy. Or use things like pillows and blankets. And it can still be a noticeable improvement. Doesn't sound like the OP (or most home users) is looking for a pristine recording environment. When I was...

AxeFx in acoustic treated bedroom vs. non-treated bedroom?

Its a subjective question. Besides the recording studio in my house, my living room & bedroom are treated. Mainly because i want my sounds to transfer to my own studio or other studios I might record in. Many people do not enjoy a treated room. It can sound to some very sterile. An untreated...

Why do I need both Axe-Fx III & Axe-Fx II?

If you are doing that regularly, then wouldn't it be cheaper or at least make more economical sense to just purchase a III or a second II?

Why do I need both Axe-Fx III & Axe-Fx II?

I would not call it GAS as I already own a III. I actually dislike having duplicates or similar gear or instruments that as you say "share the same DNA." Gear are mainly tools to me, like a carpenter's hammer or saw although there are no $2500 hammers ;) But IMO, as my own tools the Axe FX has...

Why do I need both Axe-Fx III & Axe-Fx II?

I absolutely love the Axe FX III and found it is doing more for me than the II. The interface especially has opened up many things & worth the purchase. So now I keep one old II in my living room (& to take on the road) and wanted to keep my other II in my bedroom. But I have found as much as I...

Its an arbitrary decision for what you stated above. So that may not be helpful for many and as you point out, they won't use it. That reduces greatly the number of people Al would be working for. But if its that helpful to you, why not hire Al if he's available, to do a custom app for you? You...

While there are always arbitrary decisions when converting things, no matter what choice is made on what gets "thrown out" will for most users be the wrong choice.

Can the tuner be used for Acoustic

I have a couple of cheap pickups from Amazon. My cheaper one is by Neweer. Its a dollar less ($5.99) than when I bought mine. Works good but don't throw it around. For a few bucks more ($18.59) I also got the Sunyin Transducer pickup which sounds great, is pretty tough but one complaint is the...

Where do I download version 2.83? I downloaded from the link (twice) in the first post and it gives me version 2.74. When I open a syx file it gives me a message for version 2.83 but can't get it.
