    JP's IRs collection Vol.1, Just Wow!

    Do we have a lot of people actually using these in any live presets ? I mainly use ML Soundlab and all the mixes worked great in a live environment. Heck, anyone AB these against the latest ML stuff? I’d love to hear those thoughts.

    FM3 longevity

    I ran an Axe 2 rig for many years. Went back to tube amps and pedals for the hell of it only to realize the Fractal saved me a lot of time and money. Grabbed the FM3 MK2. Im telling you as a former Axe 2 guy don’t stay on the fence. Get one. If you’re worried about only a few more updates then...

    Fractal Audio AMP Models: Revv (based on Revv Generator 120)

    Never played a JPM but I will say the green channel is killer on the Revv. Call me crazy if ya want but I dime the gain and run it like a fuzz pedal. It’s a lot of fun and with a little delay/reverb you have some Rabea tones going on. Cool to see some Revv in the Fractal now because they have...

    Bareknuckle pickups worth the cash ?

    I do think both sets would work well, I’d go Polymath. They’re so great to play on. Amazing cleans, midgain and heavy tones. If you do get them update your post or start a new thread “Polymath Love” hahaha

    Bareknuckle pickups worth the cash ?

    Polymath or Silos. I have both and they’re not worlds apart but they are different. Rabea on YouTube has a good little A/B demo but the problem is you can’t capture feel in a demo like that. Sound wise the Silo is a hair fatter but the feel of the Polymath I enjoy more. What tuning are you...

    My buddy was working that gig and snapped a photo for me during soundcheck lol. Stock fractal cab, they tried their own IR’s and the fractal stuff worked better is what he told me.

    Sell my Axe II and get the III?

    Do it. Had the II for almost 7 years. Loved it and it did everything I wanted. The III takes it to the next level. I really thought it would only be a slight upgrade in terms of sound but I was very wrong. Everything about it is just better. The FC controllers are much easier to program too. You...

    Announcing Axe-Fx III Mark II

    Pretty cool. Heck I remember when the Axe II Mk2 came out and was afraid we’d be left in the dust firmware wise. What features will this MKII potentially get that the MKI won’t be able to handle? Just curious.

    Axe-Fx III Firmware Release Version 13.00 Public Beta

    Hey Cliff, I know a lot guys (me included) asked for the precision drive and we always got the “it’s a tube screamer “ argument as a reason why it’s not going to be added. Now that it’s here, anything unique about it from your perspective ? Regardless thanks for throwing it in there !

    Implemented Update Petrucci Rig

    Fractal Audio Artist Preset Series - Steve Stevens

    Very cool. Question since it shows these were done with 12.08. Will the DT and Thorn presents load up correctly on 12.08 ? Amp modeling hasn’t changed so I’m guessing the answer is yes?

    New ML Sound Lab Mega Djent Cab Pack

    Just bought it. Gonna check it out tomorrow. Pretty psyched because those IR’s in the older pack were some of the best so I can only imagine how good this will be considering his latest stuff is 10/10.

    Default output level of the Axe-Fx III is lower than the Axe-Fx II

    Should I switch mine to +4 if using the Matrix Gemini II? Will it make a huge difference in feel or will it just increase the volume ? I’m not unhappy with the tones but if this can make them better why not.

    12 different 4x12 Cab Packs with my Friedman BE-100 Deluxe [ML SOUND LAB]

    I wonder what that says about Dave Friedman as an amp designer/builder because when it switched to the freeman cab it just sounded perfect imo. They all sounded good though. Got the Zilla yesterday so I’ll grab a few more later this week. You’re killing it Mikko, appreciate the dope IR’s.
  36. katsumura78

    ML sound lab.. wav format.

    If we plan on mixing them with the older ML IR packs should we convert the MPT folder then? I haven’t sent anything over to the axe yet because I’m just not sure which ones to use (MPT or not ) lol.

    Ready to buy the Axe-Fx III - Do I need anything else?

    I had enough pedals that I sold off and grabbed the III with a FC6. Zero regrets. Got the Gemini II speaker and I’m only playing at home atm. Worth it. Just do it because it sounds incredible and is so simple to use.

    New Axe-Fx III basic price - $1,999

    Got my III during tax free weekend. Totally worth the price. If you’re on the fence just do it. Listed all my pedals for sale and it’ll cover the cost of the III np. Not to mention the axe will do more than all those pedals combined with zero noise and more flexibility with routing. In 2019 it’s...

    New to Axe. Should I sell my pedals?

    I’ve started selling off all my pedals. I’m keeping my wah (Dunlop JP, yes I know people have modeled it but I like it ha). The Meris stuff is cool but without an easy way to store presets and always having to look at the manual to know what the secondary parameters are I’ll stick to axe edit...

    About to take the plunge... again?

    Grabbed a Gemini II today for a solid deal so there’s no going back now. Probably should order my Axe III now..
  44. katsumura78

    About to take the plunge... again?

    I’ll probably keep the amp around just for the heck of it. Tired of seeing a mess of cables and pedals. Never thought I’d go back to modeling so soon but it feels like the obvious choice for what I want.
  45. katsumura78

    About to take the plunge... again?

    Thanks for all the replies guys. I’ve settled on the III with FC6 so I’m looking forward to it.
  46. katsumura78

    About to take the plunge... again?

    Totally forgot about the Mission Engineering Gemini II as well. Seems like the bigger cabinet will make the stereo spread a little better compared to the Powercab 212. Plus I don’t need any extra speaker modeling I’m all about the ML Soundlab IR’s. As far as running the Gemini, it looked like it...
  47. katsumura78

    About to take the plunge... again?

    Do you feel like two for a hobby player at home is too much? I guess it’s why I’m thinking this new stereo Powercab. Hopefully I’ll be in a band setting again but I’m only jamming at home atm.
  48. katsumura78

    About to take the plunge... again?

    Yeah I’m gonna keep my invective head and cab and at least make some patches that’ll utilize that set up but I’m considering the Powercab 212 that was announced. Unless there’s a better stereo option out there? Not looking to spend 2k for a couple CLR’s even though I enjoyed the one I used to...

    Musicman Majesty, good?

    Climate I'm sure has a lot to do with it but my EBMM guitars have been the most stable out of anything I’ve owned. I’m on majesty number 2 and zero issues except for the jack loosening up but that happens to every guitar eventually.
  51. katsumura78

    Tried a JP Majesty for the first time

    The new Majesty’s with Sonic Ecstasy pickups sound better than the Illuminators. They seem fatter/warmer so the cleans really stand out and the distortion isn’t so harsh. Just my experience but I’m still a fan of first iteration of the Majesty. Those guitars sit in the mix really well.

    Misha Mansoor and I bring you: ML Zilla

    Free John Petrucci Presets for Axe-Fx II and AX8

    Very cool! The Y amps sounded just as good if not better in those presets, figured I'd ask if they were put there on purpose or not. Almost all of them were higher in volume when I switched so I'll have to go back to level them out. My ears could be tricking me on which actually sounded better.

    Ernie Ball Majesty..... Thoughts?

    I had an early JP7 with those pickups and kinda regret selling it, but I recently found a set that'll be going into my XI this week. Should be the best of both worlds in playability and sound.
