    Axe-fx with ART SLA2

    I gigged for a few years with original Axe into SLA2, was great. No real advice - it was a pretty solid rig, all though after 4 years or so, one of the SLA channeIs started cutting out, so I just used the other side. initially went 2 cabs in stereo, but ended up just using 1 side. Tried bridge...

    Went to a Fractal Clinic here in Melbourne the other night..

    Yep - Leon needs to be involved if there's a WA Fractal clinic. I'd go for sure - his videos are pretty much the best out there.

    Matrix GT800FX Problem - Shutting down

    Is there a solution that doesn't involve shipping back to the UK?

I am in Australia and actually sent it back to matrix for repair when i first got it, but it...

    AxeFx: Standard vs AxeFx II

    I have both and actually only use the standard for live use (power amp/cab). I basically have it dialed in for the couple of sounds I use - just a couple of variations of a cleanish vox/telecaster sound with a couple of drive options (I should just get an ac30!). I am always very happy with it...

    I hear you man! The bass amps in the axe are fantastic and really appreciated, but a little limited - theres not really a modern solid state amp option like a GK for example.

    New fw17 on bass

    Seems great! Finding it very easy to get nice tones - even from the non-bass models...tube pre, hiwatt, ODS clean etc. Can't really compare with the previous firmware as I have just changed bass rigs a couple of days ago to a Bergantino IP310 1000w powered cab...seems a perfect match for the axe!

    Axe Fx II vs Ultra

    I have a standard and an II - I still generally use my standard for guitar gigs as it's dialed in fine for me and I don't have to re tweak after upgrades - I use the II for bass gigs.

  43. stevorc321

    Any of you have this?

    Yeah - hers just came on suddenly and freaked her out a bit. she said everything was brighter with her eyes closed than with them open, so it was hard sleeping and generally very weird. Doesn't sound like that would be your cause if you've had it all your life though.
  44. stevorc321

    Any of you have this?

    If this has just come on, I'd get it checked out. My sister was ill a couple of weeks ago and had very strong closed-eye visuals along with headaches and general weakness. Turns out it was a benign brain tumor - they took it out last week and all is going great so far.

    Thanks RB - I have been pretty happy just using a regular guitar cab, but now I find I am in need of a bass rig. It was your initial review on using CLRs for bass that prompted me to order one. Not sure if just one will cut it though for loud bass. Was your bass shootout done with one or two...

    Props to cliff and fractal on the reverb

    Initial impressions are that the new verbs seem to work much better in front of the amp now. I have had to use a Boss FRV-1 pedal in front of the Axe to get a decent 'tank in front of the amp' reverb sound on gigs. Hopefully, I can replace that now.

    Tone match same as cab sim?

    Almost all the tonematch presets you can download area tonematch of the amp and the cab - so they are the same as a preset with an amp and a cab and will probably sound bad through a real guitar cab. If you can tonematch a preset or sound of just the amp - no cab - it should sound better...

    Bug? Axe fx II freezes when switching into a preset

    I had this the other day - it froze on preset 330 which was a factory preset (Petrucci Rhythm). Rebooted many times, unplugged power and USB. I couldn't get off it for 1/2 an hour or so. I eventually got it off 330 by spinning the dial just as it booted up. Then I saved another factory preset...

    IMO this stuff needs to be on his site somewhere. Otherwise it's all a bit ???. I play bluesy/rock/funk/roots etc and from the site descriptions I had no idea which IR pack would be best suited.

    Hi Bob thanks for the IRs. I've only had a brief whirl through them, but they are great. I dialled up a Badger patch and the Blue Dog was awesome, so I thought that was my favourite, but after experimenting a bit I really like the M75 with a wider variety of amps. It has a lot of punch...
