    Clock sync with DAW

    You should be able to do it with a USB cable for Axe Edit and midi for Ableton, or just use USB for both.

    Clock sync with DAW

    Yup.

    Clock sync with DAW

    It's pretty simple really. Depending on what you are using for midi (usb or midi cable) make sure in Live preferences you have sync enabled on the midi out to the Axe FX. Press play in Live and you should be set. Make some changes to the tempo in Live and make sure the Axe is reflecting these...

    Clock sync with DAW

    Someone else might be able to chime in but my first thought is that it might be getting 2 clock sources, from USB as well as midi. Try unplugging one or the other temporarily to see if it's possible with one or the other. Maybe the midi channel is different on the Axe from what is being sent...

    Could a Fractal like product exist for Home audio?

    I had a thought the other day about whether or not the type of technology that Fractal delivers in the modelling department could apply to home hi-fi audio systems. I don't see really why it couldn't. One of my in-laws is a freak about what different pre-amp / power amp combinations will produce...

    MAC DAW recommendations....

    Depends on what your ultimate goal is but I agree with what most have said, either Logic or Ableton. I use Ableton personally because I mostly just use it to jam by myself with, recording loops on the fly and layering sounds. Once you have your setup dialed it's a piece of cake to fire up Live...

    McMillen SoftStep

    It's USB bus powered but no tuner display. You need to have the KMI midi expansion to send midi directly to the Axe or if you have any other midi outs connected to your computer you can just send the midi out from there without the expansion

    McMillen SoftStep

    I just got mine today (SS 2) and have only played around with it with my Strymon Big Sky but I'm really impressed with how easy it is to program on the computer. I bought it because I love the idea of essentially having 10 possible expression pedals in a preset (or 20! if you use both x and y)...

    A final word to digital output/clock

    I have the same setup with the 828mkii and in the Motu software just select spdif as your clock source at 48khz. In the Axe FX I/O menu make sure spdif is active and change your spdif source.

    XLR Cables for Studio Monitors

    Using Monoprice cables with my D8s and most of my gear for that matter. Excellent quality cables at an insane price.

    Record/arranging/mastering guitar/AxeFXII input onto Ableton Live 9

    As others have mentioned you pretty much have all you need but I would also recommend getting some sort of foot switch to start/stop looping. Spend some time getting everything setup in your default Live set so you can just fire it up and start jamming. I have the Axe II, Live 9 and Push as well...

    Equator D8 Experience

    Has anyone used the D8's and the powered CLR? At lower volumes is there a big difference that you can notice?

    Equator D8 Experience

    Most likely not ever going to be jamming with a band for myself.

    Equator D8 Experience

    I'm kind of curious about these. I currently have a pair of Active CLR wedges that are out of this world but I think they're overkill for my needs. I'm a home player and I've been considering downsizing mostly to free up some coin for some other purchases.

    Ableton PUSH put to musical use

    It's quite fun to play as a midi keyboard and the sequencer is pretty great too, that's pretty much what I use mine for. It's integrated really well into Live so changing patches and editing/mixing is a breeze.

    matching subwoofers with atomic CLR

    I was just thinking about this myself. I'm using my CLRs as studio monitors so an extra bit of low end would be nice. I've been looking for a sub that's <$500 and the choices aren't plentiful. I found a good deal on a KRK 10s for $300 that I was considering but not sure how it would pair up with...

    MAC GUYS sound cards for g5 along with axe fx 2

    I just picked up a MK2 which can be had for even cheaper and is a great soundcard, I replaced a Presonus FP10 and I must say the Motu drivers are rock solid.

    MAC GUYS sound cards for g5 along with axe fx 2

    Sounds like possibly some buffer settings in your DAW or a clocking issue (Audio/midi preferences, clock source). I'm assuming you are using the Axe audio outs to the Motu and not USB for audio?

    New CLR

    When did you get on the list? Or if anyone else can chime in on that got their invite in the last few days as to when they got on the list. I got on early Nov. and was told there was a good chance I could get in on this current batch.

    Cheapest way to reamp on a Mac

    Sorry, guess I misunderstood your post, my bad. How are you monitoring? Have you tried using your computers output, through headphones or something? I think the issue might be that in logic you can do 4 channels coming in to the computer but only 2 out, I guess you could maybe hard pan your...

    What's the best way to record

    I bought mine from monoprice, very good quality and very reasonably priced. Works great, and as stated if you can keep it shorter it will probably work out better.

    Cheapest way to reamp on a Mac

    5 second google search from the Axe wiki: How to reamp: The USB output signal of the Axe-Fx II always consists of 4 signals: 4 x mono / 2x2 stereo. There's nothing you have to set up in the Axe-Fx for this. Channels 3 and 4 contain the raw data from the instrument input, without processing by...

    What's the best way to record

    If you want to use the RME I'd go with SPDIF personally. If you use the USB on the Axe and you want to use the RME as well for other functions then you'll most likely run into some problems as you'll have to create an aggregate device within OSX audio/midi preferences. From my experiences this...

    How to connect two mission engineering pedals with the Axe

    S/PDIF sync problems

    This happened to me as well with my iMac and Presonus FP10. I was previously using an Eventide Eclipse this way and worked fine. I assumed that it was an issue with my FP10 as it is a piece of junk and I'm in search of a new interface and hopefully it will work for me.

    Which firewire interface are you using with SPDIF

    Hey there. I'm looking for a new firewire interface to use with my iMac (i7) and Axe FX II and I'm wondering who's using what. Currently I'm using a Presonus FP10 (Firepod) with my iMac and Live 9 and for whatever reason (I've tried everything) I'm having no luck with SPDIF and the FP10. I can...

    Mic preamp to pair with AFX-2

    Bit of a shameless plug here but the FMR RNP is a great mic/instrument pre, little to no coloration and lots of headroom. You'd be hard pressed to find something of better quality in that price range IMHO. I happen to have one for sale or trade if you're interested. I was using it for my guitar...

    Are 2 Alto TS112s overkill for bedroom player?

    Thanks guys, that's what I was leaning towards. I have some rokit 6s now and can't really push them that hard. Found a good deal locally for the ts115s so I'll probably snag those up.

    Are 2 Alto TS112s overkill for bedroom player?

    Howdy. I'm all saved up for an Axe II and am looking for some speakers. I'm primarily a bedroom player but want a stereo setup for sure, there's potential for some possible gigging but not likely. My question is - will a pair of Alto TS112/15s be overkill or would I be better off with something...

    Sending Axe signal through computer (Ableton), monitoring?

    Hi all. I have a question that I was hoping someone could chime in on. I used to own a Standard and am strongly considering getting the II. 90% of my playing time would just be studio use. My setup would be guitar > Axe FX > Presonus FP10 soundcard into Ableton Live and a loop within Live with...

    Using External MIDI knobs to control internal parameters

    I posted a thread about doing this with the new software editor but no response. I'm not an expert on midi but I think it could work if there's support in the software for it. Something like how you program midi in Live, hit the midi edit, click the parameter in the editor, and move the midi...

    Novation Zero SL -- Do you? would you ?

    As far as I understand, you can only assign 8 parameters to control with midi. To do this with a Novation Remote controller shouldn't be that hard with the Axe's midi learn ability. It seems strange to me that you would only be able to assign 8 parameters, it would be totally awesome to be able...

    Front input not working when rear input connected?

    Here's my problem. I want to hook my guitar up to the front input on the Axe FX and I've got my computer out to the rear input on the Axe as I use it for an effects processor for Ableton as well. The problem is that when I switch to the front input on the I/O menu on the Axe, there's no sound...
