    Friedman HBE test on 12.04b

    I was screwing around with the 12.04 beta firmware tonight and figured I'd post a quick clip since it seems we're all probably too busy playing to post clips. IMHO, this firmware sounds and feels absolutely fantastic...this is definitely way more than a minor update! I must preface this by...

    FW 12.03 beta 4 - frequent lockups

    Last night I was playing for a few hours mostly on factory preset 24, the Friedman HBE, and had at least 5 lockups. USB was connected, but no axe-edit use at all. I know flaky USB cables can cause issues, but this is the same cable I've been using for months with no issue. I know this is...

    Strange Display Corruption

    I was playing and recording for about an hour tonight and glanced over at the Axe-Fx and saw that the display looked odd. (see attached photos) Everything continued to work fine and I was able to navigate and change patches, but the display corruption remained until I rebooted. I've never...

    Intermittent crash when USB connected?

    I didn't want to post this in the bugs section just yet, because I'm not sure how to reliably reproduce it and don't know whether it's maybe just an issue with my hardware instead of a bug. Ever since I've installed v10, and now on 10.02, I get a very occasional lockup (no audio, lcd freeze)...

    Bug? Possible Looper Bug causing crash

    I haven't tested all possible scenarios, but I think I stumbled upon a bug in the looper on v10. I fully wiped and reset my Axe last night and am running firmware 10 with the new v10 factory banks. I only used Axe Manage to initially load the banks yesterday and have only been using the front...

    Baritone and Recto Orange

    I'm usually an E standard tuning guy, but picked up a baritone recently to have some fun. This is just a quick test track into a Recto Orange patch (I think it was just the stock Recto Orange patch with effects turned off). Forgive the slop. <sarcasm>Forgive the nearly obsolete and totally...

    Uberschall 3.0

    This is a quick version 3 clip based on the Euro Uber preset (#20). The only changes I made were bypassing the delay and reverb and engaging the amp boost switch....in other words, just raw amp and cab. Played on a cheap strat. Nothing special, but I really liked the growl coming from the...

    Axe-Fx II - Chunky Cranked HBE

    Just messing around with the Friedman HBE amp and recorded a quick sample. I didn't save exact settings, but it's just the amp and a single cab...no effects. I didn't tweak much on the amp other than cranking the master to around 9 and maybe cutting the bass a bit...

    Axe-Fx II - Multiple High Gain Re-Amps

    At the suggestion of some forum members, I decided to play around with re-amping tonight and provide clips of some of the higher gain amps. You can download the individual files or just grab the zip file which has everything here... The whole enchilada For the sake of simplicity, all of these...

    Alesis quadrasynth repair manual / schematics?

    Nothing to do with the Axe-Fx, but since there are a bunch of knowledgeable folks here maybe someone can help me out... I have an old Alesis Quadrasynth Plus Piano keyboard that I primarily use as a controller for soft synths. It works fine, except the LCD has been dead for several years. So...

    Uberschall Dry

    With all of the recent discussion about improving the Uberschall model, I decided to check it out a bit more. I dialed a basic patch using Cliff's suggestion of reducing depth and boosting the lows using a filter block to get closer to a real Uberschall (not that I've ever played a real one)...

    Strings

    I was experimenting with the excellent violin patch 3 Chord Rock created a few months back, so I did a couple simple string section sketchpad ideas for a friend's song. They're rough and glitchy here and there and I won't end up using them, but figured I'd share for anyone curious how it can...

    Bogner jam

    Haven't been playing much lately, so just fired up a quick (somewhat repetitive) jam to have some fun. Figured I'd share with y'all.... http://www.mitchbrody.com/axefx/Subsonic.mp3 All guitars are using a dual amp/cab patch with the Uberschall and Ecstasy models...

    Uberschall / Ecstasy

    I recently acquired a dirt cheap Epiphone Les Paul with a Dimebucker in it. I finally sorted the electronics, so figured I should record something a bit rockin' to test it out. This track uses a dual amp/cab setup with the Uberschall and Ecstasy and the bass is a modified version of Raca's...

    Violin Test

    Tonight I had a chance to load up the violin patch created by 3 Chord Rock (see the original thread.... viewtopic.php?f=19&t=7834) That patch is really wonderful and makes me thrilled that I went for the Ultra. Anyway, I recorded a test track just to noodle around with it, so I thought I'd...

    Uberschall wankery

    I guess I'm on a bit of a Bogner binge lately. I was doing some more 7.18 testing tonight with the Uberschall model and think I got a bit carried away with cranking the highs, presence, and AIR....got a bit brittle but maybe it works in some situations. Anyway, I recorded the following quick...

    Euro2 Air Test

    With all of the talk about the new "Air" feature, I figured I'd play around with it for a bit to get used to the effect and figure out how I might incorporate it. I'm starting to really like it on high gain stuff. It seems to be the cure for any "blanket over the speaker" perceptions (though I...

    First clip with 7.16 firmware!

    Alright, I admit it.....that subject line is a really, really lame attempt to get attention. :oops: Sadly, it probably will attract some clicks as we're all hopeless firmware junkies! ;) Anyway, just did some quick riffing tonight after loading up 7.16. I needed an excuse to check out the...

    drive mix control on 7.06 - minor bug?

    I'm on 7.06 now and there seems to possibly be an issue with the drive mix control. When the mix is between 0% and 100%, it appears that the left side output is a little louder than the right. At 0% and 100% the levels are even. I confirmed this by creating a new patch with just a drive block...

    Death By Synth

    Continuing to play around with the synth blocks tonight. Decided to throw a Rat drive block after the synths and I'm loving it. This is a quick test track. All tracks are using the same synth patch, so it's really too thick and busy, but it's too late to tweak...gotta go to sleep. Crank it...

    Harmonizer testing

    Just thought I'd play with the harmonizer a bit more since it's been a while and I've seen various posts lately calling it into question. As far as tracking goes, I really can't imagine it getting any better than it already is...in a word, it's stellar! As far as natural vs. unnatural, I think...

    Synth Test

    I was just testing out some stuff with the synth and thought I'd post a quick recording. This is just the dry synth solo'd. Nothing fancy, just enjoying the sound.... http://www.mitchbrody.com/axefx/synthtest1.mp3 It's a drive into two synth blocks in parallel and then into the multiband...

    Clean Squeeze

    Went for a bit different sound than I usually do and jammed out on it for a bit tonight. Just a sloppy little jam....warts and all.... http://www.mitchbrody.com/axefx/CleanSqueeze.mp3 Lots of pedal-style compression on it. I'm usually not much of a compressor guy, but I was enjoying it.

    X99

    Here's a quick test track using all 3 X99 channels.... http://www.mitchbrody.com/axefx/X99.mp3 Didn't spend much time tweaking....left them all at similar settings and just flipped between models. Used the 4x12 Cali cab on all of them... X99 clean - double-tracked, panned wide...

    Messing around with Dr. Z

    I was messing around with the Dr. Z amp model tonight and thought I'd post a clip. I know it's a low gain amp, but it gets nicely driven with the master cranked (along with the boost engaged and higher drive settings ;) ) Not sure it necessarily comes through in a clip, but it just feels...

    Cat's Nuts...

    Ha ha....subject make you look? Anyway....whenever I get a bit too stupid with the wah and whammy bar, my drummer tells me it sounds like a cat got its nuts squeezed in a vice. I'm guessing he'd probably say that about this piece of noise as well. My wife walked in a little while ago when I...

    Trainwreck Wah

    Been a while since I've posted a recording, so here goes. This was just a short drum test recording (a little sloppy) from a drummer I know, but I ended up throwing some guitar and bass on top of it just messin' around... http://www.mitchbrody.com/axefx/TrainwreckWah.mp3 Guitar and bass were...

    ringmod, whammy, and a few amps...

    Realized I haven't posted much yet to the new forum, so.... Here's a track I whipped together late last night. There's some amount of slop as it's still just in "idea" stage at this point. All guitars and bass(pitch shifted guitar) are an Ibanez Universe into the Ultra, except for a simple...
