    Switching from Mark IV to Axe-Fx III

    I played a Mark IV for over 30 years. Since going with the Axe FX I've since sold the Mark IV with no regrets. That said if I was still in my 30's or 40's I likely would have kept it.

    Ibanez Nylon String

    I like it, plays nicely and sounds good through the Fractal! I like the neck. It is neck heavy, or more correctly the body is light so it will neck dive if you let go. The end pin where you plug in, well it's a bit of a battle getting a strap on it, I may need to find a different type of strap...

    Seeking Tuner Solution

    @unix-guy You're right in this situation that the mechanical approach is not only simple but also the best. Even if I succeed with a software approach, if I mashed the knob down it would still go into the tuner mode and I would still have to do a dance to get out. Thanks everyone for you input!

    Metal footswitch caps fell off. Where to find replacements?

    I've had it happen on my FM3, I didn't lose it and superglued it back on taking care to not let any run down the shaft. I believe it happened not so much from kicking it, but rather from dragging it back after stomping on it.

    Clarity on output 2, can it match output 1 now?

    6 dB is a lot less discrepancy, but noted and appreciated. I can certainly accept however they are supposed to be, but I'm not there yet. Maybe I should reinstall the firmware and reset the system?

    FM3 vs AXE-FX III-Main Differences?

    I think the diffusion parameter in the delay block is not present on the FM3. (not sure if that's true for all types)

    Clarity on output 2, can it match output 1 now?

    Now if I set the Output Level of Output 1 to -10dBV, it matches perfectly with the Output Level of Output 2 set to Line Level +4Dbu Not saying that makes sense to me, but it is what I'm seeing.

    Clarity on output 2, can it match output 1 now?

    I have both outputs plugged into an RME Fireface UFX, 2 of the mic pre's. The pre amps have an auto set function and I started with the gain at 20. hit a a chord hard. The gain on the output 1channel dropped to zero, the output 2 channel dropped to13, then 12 when I hit it really hard. Then they...
  46. L

    Clarity on output 2, can it match output 1 now?

    The gain on both global Eq's are the same, some minor variations on the graphic bands. I would say right now I'm seeing about 13db difference. Gauging from your questions it seems that the two should be able to match the output.
  47. L
