    How to give Axe-Edit on Windows 11 permission to create default directory?

    Well, I found that my app data was on a different path than I expected that was in my User's folder. In preferences I listed that path which takes it to the proper Axe-Edit file for blocks, snapshots and templates but it still won't create a directory. I still get the message that access was...

    How to give Axe-Edit on Windows 11 permission to create default directory?

    I recently bought a new computer with Windows 11. I am running Axe-Edit for my Axe FXII XL which works fine except that it won't create a default directory and has to load all settings every time. The error message is Unable to create default directory...

    MFC-Edit Name Timeout Dilemma

    I am trying to set up my MFC-101 with MFC-Edit as I need to start using it and I have completely revamped my Axe FX II XL setup with changes made over the last year. The 101 works just fine with the Axe FX but when I try using MFC-Edit I have a persistent Name Timeout error. I had programmed it...

    Show CC Assignments? And Preset Assignments

    I'm finally getting around to using my MFC Edit but I find I can call up the Show CC Assignments window only one time during a session. Which is kind of crucial as I expect many of my IAs will be assigned to general use as different presets may use completely different FX blocks and require a...

    My recently acquired Axe-Fx II XL and my Ultra

    I just sat down and had a nice RTFM session referring to the amp block. Now that I'm a little more educated about how things interact there may be clues and I may be able to revise some settings on the Axe II. Time is short and there is no getting to it today but I believe tomorrow I can spend...

    My recently acquired Axe-Fx II XL and my Ultra

    So I recently got hold of an Axe FX II XL with an MFC and I've been doing A/ B comparisons to my Ultra. Overall I find the Axe II to be nicely detailed and I'm quite pleased with it. Although there's a couple of things I'm a bit less impressed with. It seems that a number of amp blocks strike...

    Did Axe-Edit Gen II just overwrite my Ultra Axe-Edit?

    Programming Effects Blocks

    You can branch off from one effect block running left to right and run effects in parallel so that one effect doesn't effect the other, and then bring them back together again later. If you had a flanger and a delay in series one after another you'd have a flanged signal that would then be run...

    I have a Dunlop volume pedal for one of my expression pedals. I use a cord with 2 mono 1/4" jacks connected to a stereo 1/4" jack. If I get the two mono plugs reversed I have the same problem. Insert them correctly into the pedal and I get my full range back.

    Assign a cc button for boost?

    Or even a cleaner OD like the FET boost or the BB pre, Treble Boost or something suchlike with the drive turned down to 9:00 or less and the level up to the desired volume just to 'hit the front panel' on the amp sim a bit. It might make a nice alternative at least part of the time.

    How to run 2 amps at once???

    Running two amp sims more or less equally through both sides can have it's own challenges. While similar sounding amps run essentially through both sides is fun for building a wall of sound, I think it's often more interesting to define each amp/cab's voice a bit more clearly if you're using...

    2 mono cab VS. 1 stereo cab block?

To set up your modifier that the pedal is operating, you need to put start and 100% and end at 0%. That way, you can...

    My Ultra arrived. extremely disappointed with patch changing

    I wonder if it would be possible to have a option for a quick damping / ramping on either end of the amp sims when switching presets, if that would make it sound more like a morph than a definitive drop-out? Even if it takes as long or slightly longer than it does now to get past the drop-out...

At this point...
