    Pitch detection only works monophonic or am I missing something?

I set it up so that the drive is engaged from the low E to the E one octave above.It works only when I play single notes.But when I play more than one note simultaneously above the E (12th fret on E string, 7th on A or...

    Wish Mimic lowest note behaviour like the BOSS OC-5

    I saw this cool demo of the BOSS OC-5: Got to time index 4.57, only the lowest note in the chord is affected. Could this be possible with the pitch block? Phil.

    Confused about banks

    Strange noise when combining Axe FX with Boss FC-300

    Strange noise when combining Axe FX with Boss FC-300

    I thought that a ground loop sounded low in pitch like 50 hertz here in Europe but this sounds very high in pitch. So if this is a ground loop is there another to solve it besides putting in a mixer? Phil.
  24. P

    Strange noise when combining Axe FX with Boss FC-300

    Yes, you are correct, both the inputs and outputs are unbalanced but that should not cause problems.The cables from axe to RC-300 and RC-300 to desk are 3 m. And as I said in the o.p. putting a small mixer between the axe and rc-300 solves the problem. Phil.

    Hello, since I bought a few cab packs I wonder about some back up issues. Is there a way to send or import more then one cab file to the axe fx? When you back up a bank with presets containing user cabs with fractal bot are the actual cabs included in the bank file? Thanks, Phil.

    Tonematched my Martin D18

    You hear the piezo of the Martin D18 tone matched to a recording of that same guitar with a microphone(AT4033a).Basicly it's to make the piezo sound more like a microphone as explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZixaSgBOy4 Thanks for listening, Phil.

  73. P

    Hiss problem

    That's what I was thinking but using a regular amp and the same cable doesn't give this hiss. In this sound example you can hear what I mean, first wireless, second cable (monster). So it is a bit of a mystery to me. Phil.

    18.01 sounds different than 18.00 b7

    I have to say that the difference is not so big on my other presets, just this one (ac20 dlx).It was intended to be a clean sound so backing of the input drive and taming the highs a little got me where I wanted. Phil.
  75. P

    18.01 sounds different than 18.00 b7

    Thanks for the answers but I have to point out that this is not a high gain amp (ac20 dlx treble) and I didn't expect so much difference between the beta and the final release. But it's not a big deal to dial in again. Phil.
  76. P

    18.01 sounds different than 18.00 b7

    I tested it only on one preset, I think 18 has more gain and brightness.I did a short recording to let you hear.First is 18.01 and than 18.00b7.It was done with reamping so it is exactly the same. I feel I have to reprogram it. Any thoughts? Phil.
