    Change effects order for foot switches

    I would have thought that the effects in the foot switch would line up to the ones in each preset, but apparently not. I looked in the manual but could not find anything about assigning effects to specific foot switches. Any help? I want to press effects, then have the ones I use most from left...

    Axe3 mk1 vs Mk 2

    Well, in my mind, it’s a review of the two models. So that’s why I placed it here. I also read that Cygnus is only noticeable on The Mk2, and not Mk1, even though you can update Mk1 consecutively. And yes, I ment FM9, not Fx9. Thanks.

    Axe3 mk1 vs Mk 2

    Just interested in the difference in the Mk2. Is it that big of a deal? I primarily use the Mk1 as a Cubase amp for my DAW. Does the Cygnus make that much difference in digital recording, or is it most notable in live situations? I also have the Fx9 for my live rig. If it makes that big of a...

    Faint noise

    Anyone else have a faint noise, almost like Morse Code? I have swapped out cables, both XLR and 1/4 inch and it doesn’t change. It stops as soon as I unplug th FM9. Thoughts? It would be enough that I would have to power down in between sets.
