    Upgrading from the Ultra to the Ax8

    Thanks for the replies, if the gap is quicker that's great I manage fine with the gap on the Ultra, but I think it does look like scenes are the way forward with the Ax8. I look forward to getting one and exploring the possiblities.

    Upgrading from the Ultra to the Ax8

    I've had the Axe Fx Ultra for 10 years and it's time to get the Ax8 it looks like it will suit my needs better. Is the gap during changing presets more on the Ax8 than the Ultra (the ultra has never bothered me in that respect) What are some other things I should be aware of?

    Vocoder with Ultra. Some difficulties.

    There was a vocoder preset uploaded by someone a few years ago, you could check that. One thing is for the mic you'll need to go through a preamp into the rear input for it to work, I remember that much from others having issues

    Something is causing my GCP power supplies to stop working

    I had a power supply go on me on Sunday. I bought a new one once I realised it was the power supply at fault, it was over 10 years old so I assumed it just gave up the ghost. The new one has worked for about 10 mins and then nothing. I've just done a quick pin to pin check on my 7 pin...

    Singtall preset superpack in the works.

    I based many of mine on Yek's and Mark Day's Your Plexi 2 patch I'm using at the moment has a fair bit of bottom end on it through FRFR but it works for the song I'm using it for so I don't mind. I need to find some quality time to work with your presets in the next week

    Midi Freezing or something

    Update: After more investigation if I power the GCP directly rather than the 'phantom power' way from the Fractal, I don't get the problem. So it could be the midi cable shorting a power pin to a signal pin or something similar on either the GCP or Fractal unit. I'll get the multi meter...

    Boss FS 5U
