Unwanted behaviour with default scene and MIDI (?)

Hi folks, so far I didn't use the scenes in the Axe-Fx II & III, as I did all the programming (bypass states and channels) in my MIDI controller. But as I got the impression that scenes and their editing in Axe-Edit have come a long way, I'll probably change over to do what's possible with...

Mic preamp for singing through Axe-Fx?

Hi all, I want to add a mic preamp to my rig in order to put vocals through my Axe-Fx III. It would be nice to hear some recommendations or thoughts on the subject. My needs: - It's intended for rehearsal and some day also live use. No recording functions needed on the preamp. Vice versa that...

Question about the arpeggiator

Hi all, when using the pitch block as arpeggiator, 16 stages in 1/16, shouldn't the first stage = the first note of the sequence align with the click of the metronome, when run? It seems to me that it's not the case. If this is correct behavior, is there some way to do it? Thing is, I'm using a...

D. Bramhall II: Green Light Girl (v10 dirty Strat)

Hi all, Doyle's dirty Strat sound on "Welcome" has always been one of my favorite. I tried to get it on the Ultra and on the II and with v10 I think I can finally get reasonably close. More accidentally, I "stumbled" over that sound yesterday - no Marshall amp involved ;) Since Tyler...

Bug? A-Fx sends PC on external program change

This has bothering me since its introduction in fw 6.0 but until now I thought it was a "feature". Both the manual and the fw 6.0 release notes state that the Axe-Fx II sends a PC to sync with MFC and Axe-Edit whenever a preset change is made from the front panel. Unfortunately the same...

Bug? Reverse delay always modulated

I'm not sure if it's a bug or if this is intended behaviour (or if it's inherent from the reverse delay algorithm), but I noticed that the reversed delay signal has some "stepped" modulation going on, no matter what feedback settings and with LFOs at 0% depth. While that doesn't sound wrong...

Anyone got KC Fripp guitar synth iso tracks?

Like the title sais: does anyone have tracks for tone matching Fripp's synth lead from the 80s era King Crimson? I'm thinking of songs like "The Sheltering Sky". Doesn't have to be iso tracks from those albums, if there are recordings with exact this tone (some ancient Roland guitar synth I...

Gordius LG 2 setup for Axe-Fx (II/Ultra/Std.)

Hello fellow Gordius LG 2 users, I created a "standard setup" for the LG 2 and the Axe-Fx, to make it easier to create a new setup from scratch, especially for new Gordius users and "midiots", who might be overwhelmed by creating everything themselves. For the experts it's a timesaver...

I just noticed that today my post count dropped by three. Um... why? Last year around may I had some 900+ posts and a month or two later (didn't realize instantly, as I didn't check the forum as regularly), it was almost cut in half. At that time I thought, there were some server crashes...

exploding Eggie Rebel

Yeah! First recording with my A-Fx II. I'm in the middle of recreating my Ultra patches and one of those was a modded "Eggie" Rebel 20 with Vibe in front. Now the II doesn't have a Rebel, so I went with the Blues Jr. (with no negative feedback) and cranked it :) Together with the...

Prog Metal gig video, Ultra straight into desk

Hi y'all, here's a video from my prog metal band, The Brightest Fell. Switch to HD/720p for best quality! My Ultra handles all things (electric guitar, piezo tones, looper) and goes straight to desk. I'm using just a FBT 12ma on the floor in front of me for monitoring. Enjoy! :) Sebastian

New song "In Memoriam" from my original band [Prog Metal]

Hi all, yesterday I finished the mix of my band's fourth demo song. It really is a "demo", meaning there's nothing more than what me and the band can reproduce playing live. The Ultra's looper does help ;) So it's not as produced and layered as I'd go for on an EP or album. It's up on...

"mute option" for global custom scales

The global custom scales for the harmonizer made me glad that I went with the Ultra. Like other users, I find the custom scales to be the best pitch mode in order to add a "real" second guitar, because you can freely choose the assigned note. But there's one drawback for me: if you don't...

In the attached zip-file you'll find the two removed cab IRs, i.e. the V30 and the Recto2. I only use the V30 in a few patches but have to admit that the versions other forumers put online don't sound the same, because they lack Cliff's post-processing on Alu's IR. So I reverted to firmware...
