FS For Sale: Mission Engineering 1x12 Powered Wedge

Hello. I am selling my two powered 1x12 wedges. Excellent condition. I bought them brand new a few years ago and my rig has changed a bit over this period. These simply do not get used as much anymore and I'm looking to fund other gear. Unfortunately, for the time being I'm posting for local...

The Complete Fractal Audio Master Class Series with Cooper Carter

Just bought the Axe 3 course today. Only a few lessons in and I’m learning things I never knew and I’ve owned the unit for nearly three years! Hoping the course will help in my goal to expand my rig beyond the traditional FRFR set up.

Axe FX w/ power amp & traditional cab

For those of you using a power amp with a standard cab, what have your experiences been like? I’ve mainly been a FRFR user and am considering a change to mix things up. Just curious what has worked well for you. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone tried using a BT transmitter in the headphone jack to use BT headphones?

Anyone using a wireless guitar setup with the Axe-Fx III?

Thanks for all the feedback. I've been using the Sennheiser XSW-D for about a week now. Sound is great and no setbacks. Very happy with it thus far. Only thing left is to gig with it. Won't be until October, but I'm confident it will work out great.

Latency Pitch block

I have my pitch block first as well (mine is set for two semi-tones) but did not think to check the tracking control. Will have to look at this later.

Output 1 on Axe-Fx III

So I have enough FRFR cabs to utilize all 4 outputs for Output 1 (two 1/4 in. & two XLR). Can it be problematic using all four at once? Should I use two of them and daisy chain the cabs to each other? Just wondering if anyone is in a similar situation and what would work best. Thanks in advance.

Anyone using a wireless guitar setup with the Axe-Fx III?

If so, what kind of results are you experiencing? Pros vs. Cons, brand preference, etc. I ask because I am considering using one. I own one, but it is seriously outdated (16+ years old) and I'm certain the tech has advanced during that time. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks as always.

My thoughts on the Axe-Fx III

This is it in a nutshell. The Axe comes so close, IMO, to these real amps that it makes it such an easy decision. Plenty of videos out there demonstrating this very thing. Many real amp purists might disagree and that's perfectly fine. Some even use both. I think Chris is right about knowing...

My thoughts on the Axe-Fx III

I have to say, after playing it for hours and tweaking both it and the Mesa JP2C for side by side comparison, the Axe held its own. I don't claim to have an ear for a lot of the nuances of sound and tone that many people here can pinpoint. I merely dialed in tones that I like on each and tried...

USB Connection query

I was curious, given the steps for connecting a computer via USB cable to the unit (MAC specifically), is there any potential danger in leaving the cables connected after powering down? So if they're already connected the next time you power on, does it disrupt the boot process or other USB...

My thoughts on the Axe-Fx III

So, I've had the unit for about a month now. Never having owned a piece of gear that comes remotely close to doing what this does, I'm thoroughly blown away. I stumbled into my first real issue this week (user error not system or performance wise) and I had as much fun reworking what I screwed...

Fractal-Bot warning

As much as I watch “The IT Crowd”, that should have dawned on me. Just being extra careful and probably a bit paranoid this being my first time plunging into the world of amp modeling/processors. The community here has been great. That worked perfectly. Thanks very much. J.

Concerns about over-heating

Given the size and power of the unit, has there been any issues with it over-heating during extensive use? I realize there exists a degree of ventilation given the holes on the sides of the unit. Just curious if it is being used for an extended period of time in a rack case. Thanks.

Need to pick your brains about FX

Good afternoon everybody. I'm new to the forum and researching multi-fx gear. I've read about and heard many great things regarding Fractal. I'm on the fence about the Axe FX II at the moment, mainly due to cost. It's taken me quite some time to save for and purchase the gear I have and I'm not...
