    Germanium boost pedal?

    Thats my most “wall of sound” doom tool paired with fas bass. In fact i commissioned an sdd pre pedal build because of it.

    Are drive level controls normalized or do they respect the real pedals?

    Some folks want their dynamics

    Germanium boost pedal?

    Axe cant 100% load down the pickups like a real fuzz can. Thats probably what you’re experiencing. Run a real fuzz (any fuzz?) to get the loading happening, then try the axe fuzzes again.

    Thanks for asking, I am now curious as well. Maybe @James Freeman would have insight due to his knowledge of amp circuits?

    Anyone using Arturia Minilab 3 and Logic Pro?

    Yep, there is a script which I installed and Logic recognizes the device as a control surface. Im not sure how to see what is controlled though besides the pad functions.

    I just got my used minab 3 yesterday, downloaded midi control center, updated firmware and got Logic to recognize it as a control surface.

    Good Marshall style amps; bridging the gap between vintage and modern?

    Which is where modern amps get their gain. Jcm800 and back, the gain comes from the whole thing. This is probably why boosting a cranked one works wonders.

    So boosted marshall? try a few drives into a 2203 high, all knobs at noon and see how ya do. Real world, SD1 and ts808 etc do the trick. I’ve done SD1-big muff-plexi irl and it rules.

    Ideal is one of many amp parameter tabs. Are you talking about factory presets? If so, you would need to reinstall the factory presets for their settings.

    Amp channel switching & effect on/off with AxFx 3 via midi?

    User support is pretty great so long as the query person does work on their end and doesnt descend to madness haha. Glad its working for you! My only midi device is an MC8 to control the axe, but I’ll keep the out/thru in mind should that change. Im sure others will find this thread useful as well.

    This is basically how I roll since getting the unit. Update fw and enjoy. I did the reset of some mains this time around as I was very curious as to what Cliff had whipped up. As always, you can do your own thing with the magic black box. Greatest buy of my life.

    Axe-FX Re-Amping Tutorial

    I think mine came set to -40 across all USB inputs for whatever reason. It's set back to 0 now, and a quick test confirmed it works as expected. Re tuner mute, I muted on the unit prior to using the IO plugin and thus no sound came out. Unmute and there's the audio, as expected. Thanks again...

    Hey @GlennO trying to re-amp a bass DI and I think the DI output may be too low. In your video the levels are -1 for wet -10 for dry, mine is -1 and -33. I tried adding gain via logic but even adding 24dB it didn't boost the signal enough. Edit: I think the culprit was USB input levels, ch5/6...

    iirc Cliff leaves his axe3 on all the time. Still shouldn't have issues that soon unless you're not ventilating it well or its near a heat source, I imagine? if you want a faster boot time, load an empty preset (at least on the axe3). Glad to read there's a backup - I couldnt afford a B rig...
