    Using the FC6 as a stand alone MIDI controller

    Nevermind.....Just read that it cant be used and it does not have any MIDI ports.

    Using the FC6 as a stand alone MIDI controller

    Is it possible to use my FC6 as a stand alone MIDI controller? I have used it exclusively with my FM3, but I am wondering if it can be used by itself?

    Using the FM3 to change channels on Engl Savage 60

    So thank you everyone. I did figure out how to switch the amp channels using the FM3 and a MIDI cable. Now, my big dilemma is using the effects. They sound terrible no matter how I run them. There is also a ton of “hiss” added. I tried the ground lift and that didn’t help. I did run the four...

    Using the FM3 to change channels on Engl Savage 60

    Yes, basically what I want to do is use the FM3 to change the Engls channels and use just the FX of the FM3. I do not want to use the modeling amps in conjunction with the Engl. In a perfect world, at the rehearsal studio and all shows we headline I will use the Engl and the FM3. The Engl will...

    Using the FM3 to change channels on Engl Savage 60

    Soooooo, it seems that I can use my FM3 to control my Engl. The question now is how do I set the FM3 up in the editor to do this? I have seen people set up the 4CM, but I will use just a MIDI cable. Do I add a MIDI block where the Input block would go? What would be put where the output block...

    Using the FM3 to change channels on Engl Savage 60

    Hey there guys, I just purchased an Engl Savage 60 Mark II. I am wanting to change the channels on my Savage with my FM3 and FC6. Has anyone done this? The manual for the savage makes it sound like the only way to do this is with a foot switch, but the Savage has MIDI in and out. The Savage...

    Help With Tight Metal Tones

    Thanks for the comments......I do have the volume above 50%, but I will make that adjustment. The other problem I run into with the volume at or below 50% is I lose all of my volume. I purchased Cooper Carters Master Class for the FM3 and made all of the necessary adjustments according to his...

    Help With Tight Metal Tones

    Hello, I have used Fractal products in the past (AX8 and FX III) but went a different direction and decided to come back to Fractal and purchase the FM3 with the FC6. I have gotten the hang of creating scenes and getting a "good" sounding metal tone out of it, but it still sounds kind of flubby...

    Mastermind LT and Axe Fx III

    Is anyone else using a Mastermind LT to control their Axe Fx III? In the interim of waiting for an FC-12, I purchased a Mastermind LT so I could use my rig live. It does work great right out of the box, but the manual says you can program the LT to display on the board what is being displayed...

    Third Party Cabs for Axe Fx III

    Hey there guys, I have a ton of third party cabs that I have been trying to load into my Axe Fx III, but they wont load through "Axe Manage Cabs". It allows me to search for them and it appears that they are loading, but they never populate in my "user cab" section. The selection cabs that...

    OK, I have been real reluctant to install it, but on the other hand, I feel like I am missing out. Thank you for clarifying the information on the editor. :D

    Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 5.00 Beta #2

    This may be a dumb question but is the Axe III edit a part of this firmware update? I am under the impression that the beta firmware does not have an editor. Sorry about this......I have not installed the beta software because of this. Thank you

    Do you have a Fortin Meshugga pack for the AxeFxIII by chance?

    I have not. I tried the Atomica High, but it doesn’t have the gain or “meat” that I have heard.

    What aftermarket MIDI controller are you using?

    Hey there guys, I get that Fractal is a small, yet very effective company, but I am having a hard time waiting for the FC-12 controller to become available. I have looked into Liquidfoot, which is out of stock and RJM Mastermind which wants a premium price for their controller. I did purchase...

    Switch Doctor for Axe-Fx III

    So I guess I should first say that I know nothing about MIDI commands or such. I bought the Axe Fx III and I am being impatient about getting the FC-12 so.....I ran out and purchase the first MIDI controller I could get my hands on thinking I could figure a way to make it work. “What have I...

    Hey there everyone, I am a fairly new fractal owner. I currently own 2 AX8 units and just purchased and received my Axe FX III this Monday. I am totally in love with this unit and want to get the most out of it. My question is does a PDF or website exist that lists every FAS effect block...

    Pop happens while using scenes

    So, I am using scenes. One amp, one cab, no x/y switching throughout 5 scenes. Modifiers are enabled on drive trim, input trim, input volume and master volume. Scene one is my clean scene. The volume becomes very low in this channel due to removing all of the high gain. I believe my drive and...

    Trouble loading IRs into AX8

    Jarick, Thanks so much. Although I am not in front of my laptop right now, I will try this when I get home. I was able to load the IR into Cab Lite, but I couldn't get Cab Lite to recognize my AX8. When I click on "Import" from my Axe Edit, I can access all of my O/H folders, but when I get...

    Trouble loading IRs into AX8

    Hey there folks, I have my fractal OwnHammer IRs that I tried to load into my AX8 yesterday. I am assuming that I need "Cab Pack Lite" in order to do so. So I downloaded it and could not get the cab pack lite to recognize my AX8. Every time I would select "AX8" and went to "connect", it would...

    Latency issues

    This was the fix!!! Thank you

    Latency issues

    Set your AX8 to react to the downstroke of the switch. Default is that it switches on the upstroke, and that feels longer. I believe the dropout in relation to a preset change is around 0.5 seconds. Thank you so very much!!! Found the setting that you had talked about and the lag / latency is...

    Latency issues

    UP- VS. DOWN-STROKE FX SWITCHING By default, the AX8 uses both “tap” and “press-and-hold” actions on its footswitches. This gives the F-Switches double functions, and it allows Footswitches 1-8 to be used for both bypass/engage and X/Y switching. Because of this, the AX8 must execute all tap...

    Latency issues

    Thank you for the suggestions. I have created scenes, which has reduced the lag, but not eliminated it. I have now read multiple threads about this and I do see it is an issue amongst many players. I am on the fence whether I should try this live or not. After using modelers that didn't have...

    Not understanding the scenes

    I have been reading through the manual and I think that I am understanding a little better, but I believe that the AX8 is NOT capable of creating a scene that has a clean and a distorted amp. Hopefully, someone can set me straight on this. It says very clearly in the manual what you can do with...

    Hello, my name is Gary and I am new to fractal. I just got to use my brand new AX8 tonight at rehearsal. I have set my switches up as presets. I have a lot of questions but one of the first, and most important questions I have is how do I get rid of the latency that takes place for instance...
