    STD/ULTRA pedalboard conversion?

    I am replacing the output diodes on my Ultra, and looking at all the empty space and board arrangements inside, it appears that it would all fit into a fairly compact floor unit - along with the guts from an FCB1010 :twisted

    New Kinman humbuckers

    Heads up in case you haven't seen these....I've been using Kinmans in my Strat for years, previously they had only single coils and PAF's: Noiseless Guitar Pickups | Kinman Guitar Pickups

    MFC Live - Edit Switch is the bomb!

    I'm really loving this foot controller. I determined pretty quickly that I didn't want to use the IA switches in Axemode function - note that this is a per switch feature, different than the global AxeFX Mode which I do have enabled. I have the Tap and Tuner as Axe functions, the other 10 are...

    Help, right output not working on Ultra and big gig in two days :-(

    I just posted in a thread yesterday about the level differences in L & R outputs, no big deal. Then I go into the studio and find that my Out 1 Right is not working at all. I bring the Ultra home and test it today, there is no output from Out 1 Right in either the XLR or 1/4" jack. Output 2 both...

    Downside of Detuning

    I use a pitch block to detune a whole step for a few songs. While I get decent tones and can cope with the slight lag, what bugs me more is that it doesn't respond to feedback. I didn't think about this at first, and was trying to get some feedback sustain....then realized that with the...

    AxeFX II dimensions?

    Anyone know if the II is the same depth as the Standard/Ultra? If not, what is the depth? Thanks

    Wiki info incorrect?

    I checked out Yek's MFC info on the wiki. I've only had my MFC for a short time, but I believe that some of the info isn't correct. Specifically, you can use global AxeFX mode and still assign IA's to general MIDI functions as opposed to dedicated AxeFX functions. These are set on a per switch...

    Pitch block problem?

    I have noticed this recently. I use the pitch block intelligent harmony in a parallel row, with Mix at 100%. I have the same lead patch saved to two presets, one has the block enabled. What happens is the overall volume level drops when I engage the harmony preset. I've worked around it by...

    LED, IA & Preset behavior

    Just got my MFC a few days ago, just got a 7 pin MIDI cable today and have yet to hook it up. I've been reading through the forum and the manual in preparation to setting it up. From what I gather, it looks as if you could set all the IA's to general midi use and be able to use up to 8...

    Waiting list question

    Well, I finally got my email notification, of course I don't have the funds at the moment. I hope that it will be good for a little while after waiting 2.5 years?

    Detune observations

    I have been using some patches with a pitch shifter to lower a full step for some Motley Crue songs. It sounds ok, a little glitchy but I can deal with that. What I didn't realize at first was how it affects getting feedback - basically you can't get it because the guitar is tuned to a different...

    Wah via AxeFX pedal input vs. MIDI expression

    I've been using the pedal input on the AxeFX lately for my expression pedal, and the wah seems much smoother than when I used pedal on MIDI controller.

    PA/Cab users - do you mic your cab?

    I've been doing some FOH recently, mixing for a variety of bands. I'd forgotten how good a mic'd amp can sound, we had everything from metal amps to vintage Vox and Marshall. I know some here have mentioned mic'ng their rig. When I've used PA/cab in the past, I did the pre-cab block FX loop out...

    Carver PM-300

    I just got one of these from a friend who runs a sound company...it's been on the shelf for years, he'd suggested I might want to try it out. But he told me it was like 50w/channel, I didn't think it would cut it and didn't know any better. Well, at a recent rehearsal with our band ( he plays...

    Poll: Have you received the email?

    Since the other recent topic is getting cluttered, I'd like to see if/when anyone on the waiting list has received an email notification. Re-voting is enabled, see how many "no's" stack up before we see a "yes." Be sure and change your vote when you get the email, and also post at that time when...

    Exotic EP Boost?

    Just saw this, another Echoplex EP Preamp pedal: http://www.premierguitar.com/magazine/I ... eview.aspx The Echoplex was an important part of the VH sound, EJ, and others. Cliff has done the BB Pre and the FuzzFace, which I'm ecstatic about......maybe we'll see this one some day ;-)

    Help with LFO

    I'm trying to set up a patch for a song that will have a siren sound. I have the synth block programmed to produce the siren, with an LFO controller attached to sweep the pitch. But, it seems that the LFO is constantly running in the background so to speak, when I engage the synth block the...

    Output Levels Clipping

    I just installed 10.1, and I'm pleased with the new amp models and especially the FuzzFace model. I've had the Ultra for 2 years now, and have often had to adjust levels after a firmware update. It's been discussed here a lot, I usually use the amp block level to adjust. Now after this update...

    FCB1010 SW1 & SW2 Blinking & Clicking

    I noticed when modding my FCB, as I was testing switches with the unit open I could hear a distinct "click" on every preset. I also saw the Switch 1/2 leds on the display would flash on momentarily. The two switches are for controlling external devices, like channel change or effect bypass...

    Preset Mapping and Ignore Redundant PC?

    I have a question, if you use the preset mapping feature to set up two or more PC's so they use the same AxeFX preset, does the "Ignore Redundant PC" feature apply? i.e., if I have incoming PC1 and PC2 both mapped to PC3 on the AxeFX, would it reload the preset when toggling from PC1 to PC2 from...

    Tip for Drives

    I stumbled on this the other day, and thought I'd post it. I was fooling around with trying to emulate a Fuzzface, but the same concept can work for other drives. The AxeFX does a fine job in creating the dynamic feel of tube amps and drive pedals, how they clean up when you roll back the...

    Mission pedal as backup controller.

    I recently read the manual about the AxeFX pedal inputs. It has a part about using one footswitch to change presets, which I'd not seen or noticed. Set one switch to preset inc, then set start and end to 2 consecutive presets. So, you could use the Mission pedal switch to toggle between two...

    FCB1010 Re-house project

    I've decided to re-house my FCB1010, after using it for a couple of years it does everything I need except tuner display or patch names. I don't use a lot of patches live anyway, not a big deal. But I don't like the size of it, and I don't like the expression pedals. I really only want one exp...

    Pops & Clicks when changing presets?

    Has anyone noticed this, when changing presets especially if I do so while playing the guitar there is an annoying pop or click. It seems worse with delay/reverb trails turned on but it's there when I turn them off too.

    Logidy USB MIDI foot controller

    This looks interesting, and the price is right. I wouldn't want to carry a laptop for live use, but for home jamming, recording and tweaking it seems to offer a lot of bang for the buck. If you already have a PC or Mac and MIDI interface connected to your AxeFX, this gives you 3 programmable...

    How to record your own IR?

    I've searched here and elsewhere, and I'm still unsure about exactly how to do this. I have reference mic, pc sound interface, various recording and audio software for signal generation. I'd appreciate any help.

    Would it be possible?

    I am wondering if this could be possible. Say you run guitar cabs loaded with EV12L's or other fairly neutral speaker. Let's say that you already have a custom IR of your cab for FOH, splitting off your stage amp before the cab block. Suppose that you use RTA, SMAART or whatever to generate an...
