    No global blocks on FM9 deal breaker for Axe III user

    Definitely this. How many people not doing stadium tours actually gig with rack units. The FM9 needs global blocks far more than the axe units.

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 23.00 Public Beta #1

    I'm totally in agreement here. I'm lucky enought to have a production jvm410 hjs and I absolutely love it. Excited to try this out, and the overdrive green is one of the best sounds in the head. But, I think all of them are one of the best sounds...

    Is there a plan to add global preset blocks to FM9 (turbo or otherwise)?

    Not trying to be smarty pants - I think global blocks exist to solve exactly the problem I described. If you were playing an analog amp and you changed from an LP to a strat you would probably just walk back to it and increase the gain or turn down the presence or whatever struck your fancy...

    Is there a plan to add global preset blocks to FM9 (turbo or otherwise)?

    Agreed, that did sound pretty cynical - maybe a small tone tweak would help that one to go down easier. That said, I think there's good and bad to the free updates model. Yeah, the constant updates are nice, but the other side of the coin is that if a company isn't getting paid for the...

    Is there a plan to add global preset blocks to FM9 (turbo or otherwise)?

    This question is really aimed more at @Admin M@ or other fractal representatives in the know. I'm asking not when but if global blocks are planned or even possible for the FM series. I love my AXEIII and FM9 (and FM3 too) but for me the FM9 is the only practical solution for the types of live...

    Solid state Combo amp - power amp in? Boss Katana vs Line 6 Catalyst

    I would also note that I'm using a Katana Artist. I can't vouch for the non artist type.

    Solid state Combo amp - power amp in? Boss Katana vs Line 6 Catalyst

    I was rereading this thread recently and felt inspired to try running into the Katana's front input and run through the acoustic model. Wow! It might be the best tone I've gotten with a power Amp so far. The eq settings are pretty sensitive to small changes, but the frequency points work...

    Solid state Combo amp - power amp in? Boss Katana vs Line 6 Catalyst

    I can get great sounds using the effects return of all the tube amp’s I’ve tried, but i end up tweaking a bit more after turning off the power amp modelling. It makes perfect sense. You have a model that is emulating the preamp and poweramp characteristics of a tube amp, then you run that...

    Solid state Combo amp - power amp in? Boss Katana vs Line 6 Catalyst

    This is true. If you want the sound of amp x through cabinet y mic’d with z microphone and coming out of mains or monitors, then FRFR is the way. If you want to get closer to what a real amp would sound and feel like in the room you pretty much have to pick a speaker and cab you like and go...

    Solid state Combo amp - power amp in? Boss Katana vs Line 6 Catalyst

    Not bashing the Katana btw. it’s a great sounding amp and I ended up keeping it in my bedroom for short practice sessions when I take breaks during the work day. I have a stereo wired avatar 212 sitting around I don’t use for anything, so I just bought an ISP Stealth to drive it. I’m gonna...

    Solid state Combo amp - power amp in? Boss Katana vs Line 6 Catalyst

    I have the Katana mkii artist and I tried it with the fm3. I compared it to the tech 21 power engine 60 I had been using, hoping for a slightly “bigger” sound in the room. I decided that the Katana didn’t really add much except about 10 pounds lol. Seriously, the power engine 60 held its own...

    Hi All I've been searching through the forum and google and can't find anything about how to set the metronome on/off via cc in the Axe III. It looks like this may have been available in the II? I've seen the advice to turn the volume up/down form the hardware, but this isn't what I'm looking...

    MFC No Longer Being Sold??

    I was ready to buy a new one. Ended up buying a used one on Reverb. Ok with me - I got a great deal on a Mark III, but it was disappointing to see them unavailable when I just bought my new Axe FX less than a year ago.

    Anyone have squealing issues?

    Hmmm. I'm having this issue with a number of my guitars. Happens even at very low volumes. Changing the input impedance on the Axe II helps, but isn't an option on the AX 8. I think this is something that should be addressed in the firmware, not by tweaking eq's and stuff like that. Never had...

    Is there a model of a tube power amp, or a way to disable preamp to simulate going through the effects loop return or something? I would like to run my ADA MP-1 into the Axe and simulate a poweramp and cab. Any way to do that?

    Anyone using an actual JVM410 in 4CM with their AX8 or FX8?

    I'm gonna sell my JVM410H too, but only because I picked up a JVM410HJS, and it's in a whole different league. I think the FX8 is better suited - by design - to work 4CM with an amp. You have true bypass and unity gain. So, I could see where using the AX8 in 4CM might compromise the tone a bit...

    Don't know how familiar any of you are with the H&K Triamp. I would say that the overdrive channels from the Triamp are well covered with other modified Marshall type models, but the clean channel (1A) is unique among all amps I've owned - and that's a bunch! It's super clean and a little...
