    Fx8 Road Cases?

    We are exploring a soft case option. It's shockingly expensive to do without buying huge quantities right out of the gate though, so we're trying to get creative and come up with a way to make it work and be affordable. We really do feel that these Fractal products make for a great little rig...

    Fx8 Road Cases?

    We will announce all the details within the next week or two, including price. I think we will do a short video tutorial of how the units are mounted to the plate. It's a very simple, elegant solution that will allow the user to leave the mounting plate in the tray of the case (like you see it...

    Fx8 Road Cases?

    Hey guys, Peter with Trailer Trash Pedal Boards here. We have a case option in the works right now. We should have the first run of units ready to ship in less than a month.

    New song, free download, all AxeFX!

    My band has a new CD coming out in a few weeks and we have made the first single a free download on our ReverbNation page.

    Midi player?!

    In all fairness, there is a big difference between using a laptop in a live setting versus using the AxeFX or an iPad for instance. The boot time for a CPU can be much longer and a bit unpredictable in a pressure situation. There is always the chance that the UBS driver doesn't load and...

    Anyone changing patches via a MIDI interface with an iPad LIVE with a click track?

    Sweet Midi Player is a good app, it has worked well for us. No major glitches or crashes or anything. We use it with the iRig midi adaptor. The only thing you have to be careful of is if you open the app without the midi interface hooked up the app will automatically revert to the internal...

    We use an app called Sweet Midi Player to run a click track, trigger lights and occasionally trigger a sampler for song intros. It would be easy enough to have it change our AxeFX presets as well, but we just haven't bothered.

    Acceptance of axe fx from others

    Advice on electric 12-strings

    Seemless scene switching with 2 amp blocks?
