FW 13 - Hot Vox (Original tune)

I wanted to share a song a friend of mine and I wrote. I decided to use a Vox amp in the AX2 and dialed it up a bit to give it some grit. Didn't want that Marshall vibe but wanted it to be rocking.

FRFR Frustration

OK - Have another show last night where I plugged into my AFX and sent a direct line out to FOH. A continuing frustration is that when I hear my guitar in the monitors (and probably FOH) it is NOT the tone I dialed in! I spend a lot of time dialing in my presets. I use these presets to record...

Saturation Switch - Whoah!

I was expecting this switch to be another amp tweak to fatten things up or provide another subtle option for amps, but I have seen this thing really produce a fork in the road. It completely changes the way I approach the gain stage and makes you really target that option for your patch...

Axe FX II - Firmware Updates

Does anyone know if the AxeFx II will have the ability to update the firmware using the USB interface? I think this would be quicker and easier than the Midi process with the Axe FX1. Lord knows, it would be nice to not see "Bad Checksum" anymore. :)
