    Dual external switch with LEDS?

    I'm getting another FM3 mkII turbo. This time primary usage is going to be MIDI control of my Suhr PT15-IR, FM3 in FX loop OR in front of the amp. I'll use a Metro 20 with EV2, FM3, a dual switch and a ThorpyFX Peacekeeper as a "get out of jail free, safety drive, boost, more ME" in front of...

    FM9 with EV2 on Pedaltrain Metro 24?

    Anyone using a Metro 24 with FM9 + EV2? I bought a Metro 20 for use with FM3 + Boss FS7 + EV2, but my name was called for FM9 so I am changing up my plans :) I do prefer to have the FM9 off the ground a bit and would love to have the EV2 permanently cabled as well. Would love to be able to fit...

    Humbuster cable using FM3 in front of amp?

    If I'm using my FM3 in front of a tube amp as a virtual pedalboard I usually end up having extra noise, digital hash. This is WITHOUT the USB plugged into the FM3. Setting the FM3 output 2 to unity and increase the pad/boost helps a tad. But it is definitely still more noisey than regular...

    FM3 into power amp (currently tube power amp) - Speaker Imp Curve, LB-2-US/UK?

    FM3 into PS170?

    Fantastic! Just played two great acoustic duo gigs, sounds crazy but the places were packed and people were super into it. I make way more from duo then full band gigs and it is SO MUCH easier and many times a hell of a lot more fun. But yesterday the sound was great and the FX for spice with...

    Committing to FM3 as audio interface

    I ripped out my Scarlett 2i4 (for now) and I'm connecting the FM3 directly to my nearfield monitors. I have COPY output 1 to output 2 and I'm using 1/4" to XLR just because it's easier. Main out 1 is going XLR to my FRFR which I use for tone testing so I can jump from nearfields to FRFR for...

    Alternative to Mosky Dual switch?

    I really like the Mosky Dual switch but I recently used one for a while and then one side started to fail (would no longer trigger expected functions). I made sure all of the FM3 settings were correct, still no dice and could not trust it live. I'm wondering if there is a better switch to use...

    GFI Specular Tempus integration (Overkill)

    I'll keep things short. Recently went down the killer board, simple clean analog amp/cab simulation road (which sounded freaking great!) but realized the FM3 is easier, has everything and more and ends up being about $1K cheaper. So of course, here I go again back to "home base" with Fractal...

    Benson preamp + FM3

    Interested in trying out an always on (or nice boost, or nice drive) analog pedal in front of the FM3. Not that I think the FM3 is missing much, but it's nice to have options and I have space on my board. These get very nice reviews and I want to try something else besides Timmy, Greer...

    ONE Expression for different uses with scenes?

    I'm attempting to keep my FM3 footprint very small. I have a dual Mosky footswitch (which I dig), but I am thinking of reverting back to: Dunlop mini expression + Fm3. The main reason is this means I would not need a board at all. I have gigged that configuration in the past without issues and I...

    Help me build an FM3 board and consider external switch(es)

    My first got round with FM3 I was dead set on not using any external switches. It actually worked out well and even as a "layout novice" I was able to do quite a bit. But I did not like how I would setup a certain layout paradigm (let's say buttons 1-3 would be: toggle scene 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 but...

    FM3 into front of amp, FX return

    Today I made some great new ground using the FM3. I've been struggling to get the FM3 to sound and feel as good as my very modest pedalboard in front of an amp and also to sound close to as good as my full amp when running it into the FX loop (to use the amp as a tube power amp + cab). First...

    Any amp similar to Tophat Club Deluxe in AX8?

    I can't find a single good clip of the Tophat Club Deluxe amp anywhere. I'm considering a used purchase and I have the AX8. For gigs I was thinking AX8 as virtual board into the Club Deluxe for times when I don't want to go totally DI. Sadly the amp does not have an FX loop so I cannot testing...

    ARES in the AX8

    Were there a couple of amps that got the ARES version updates? I seem to recall FAS was able to incorporate just a few ARES models (which I think are precusor to AxeFX III modeling?). I could have sworn the Bandmaster was one of them? Can anyone confirm? Reason I ask is because I'm listening...

    FM3 integration with amp

    Anyone looking to integrate the FM3 with a real amp? When I had the AX8 I used it in many ways including as a virtual pedalboard in front of some nice amps.

    Output 3 & 4

    I'm currently setting up the III so I have super quick conversion from gigs to home studio. From a cabline perspective everything is awesome, this should make it incredibly easy to pack and go, play live in stereo (when I bring the PA which is 75% of the time). Then when I get home I have...

    AX8 into Powerstage 170 or Tube Amp or Fryette PS2

    I've owned the PS2 and loved it, but it's a bit bulky and not sure it is warranted for gigs. I think there is a thread where people mentioned you need to mess with resonance and once you did that it would throw off you direct to FOH tone? I just bought a cool tube amp with great FX loop (is not...

    Good time or terrible time to buy Axe-Fx II?

    Long time Fractal user, had every version (except the Ultra, it was too much for me at the time).

    Urgent - can AX8 do convincing and EASY Eb tuning on fly?

    Picked up a gig / audition (learning a **** load of tunes) and many (~15) are clearly guitar tuned to Eb OR CAPO'd first fret in F. I know there is a pedal that can do transpose that is supposed to be good. Can the Ax8 do this convincingly using the pitch shifter.

    AX8 for acoustic guitar AND vocals, possible?

    Hello, I am thinking of ditching my TC VoiceLive Play Acoustic and using the AX8 for my acoustic shows (duos and eventually solo).

    Power plus Audio Cable

    Digging the AX8 but not digging the messy wiring of long assed powercable plus long assed audio cable. Anyone have suggestions? I thought I saw something from ProCo? Basically a SINGLE thinner cable but breaks out into an IEC and XLR (possibly even 2 XLR for stereo) on each end?

    How will you setup your AX8 for live use?

    8 buttons in front and 3 up the side... so, how will you setup your rig??? When I had the II I rarely had the MFC101 for longer than a short spat... either money, cartage or wanting more gear always came up. So that forced me to normally use inferior foot control. Which meant I'd have 5 basic...

    I have a II incoming along with a Mission pedal (not sure of model, I believe it's spring loaded?). I have had the II / MFC - mkI combination before. I did love the MFC for automatically syncing names, but to be honest it was a little much for what I need and as I play more and more gigs I...

    A couple of questions on the II

    Are you able to use the editor AxeEDIT AT ALL? For firmware updates, small tweaks, loading IR's <like those acoustic ones required for Cello, performing backups, etc? Anyone run mixes through the two to tack advantage of some of the stellar FX? What does mark II offer that is so advantageous...

    "Bad" Preset is GOOD!

    This is a killer preset buried in Bank C. I'm still trying to get used to using the Edge style pics and it's tough, but getting better! I'm going to start digging into more of these FX heavy presets and tweak to taste vs. trying to build my own.

    I'd like to see really impressive video's of the looper in action

    I am new to looping and I need to get up to speed quickly as I am subbing for a second band who only uses 1 guitarist. I don't just need to do all of my looping in ONE PATCH. I need to be able to loop intro's / verses with one patch/tone and jump straight into a second patch with little to no...

    Patch Testing with AxeFX II and RCF NX12 SMA

    I've only had about 3 hours with the RCF and still getting used to it, grabbed the iPhone and figured I'd make a quick video. It think I'm clipping the internal mic but you get the idea :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlH0zrTkQ-g

    First gig in over a decade, the II delivers

    Ive been out of the weekend warrior game for over a decade (raising a young family, moved to a new state, new jobs, etc...) and had almost figured I was relegated to being a basement home studio recording enthusiast, gear maniac that never turned above a whisper, etc... But about 3 weeks ago...

    Waiting for tuner???

    Sh*T, just got the MFC101 in and hooked it up. It's in II mode, AxeFX mode and set to expansion so the unit is being powered over Cat5 and everything seems to work but the tuner on the MFC101 display keeps hanging on waiting for tuner! I need this, gig tomorrow! When I hit the designated button...

    Can Axe-O-Matic be used to "ugprade" an Ultra Patch to a II sysex file?

    It looks as if it's geared towards IR's only, no? I have been provided with some cool Ultra patches, just wondering if I could try the Axe-O-matic tool to conver the entire patch to II version, load it in AxeEDIT and then tweak as necesary?

    AxeFX II Orientation at gig - floor, on end, etc...

    My rack is a 4 space large/long Road Runner softcase with hard internal shell. I has wheels and even when fully populated with power conditioner, II and power amp it can safely and stabily stand on the wheels OR even it's back with the face of the II pointing directly up to me which is actually...

    Please Help! EV 112XP sounds muddy, need good IR's!

    Where are the Santiago IR's??? I see multiple threads about how great they are but can't find the darn sticky that supposedly has them zipped. I'm using mono hi-res to try and simply my rig and the ONE OwnHammer V2 V30 that I have is just too muffled and muddy through the EV. I know it's the EV...

    Looper questions / issues

    I am new to looping. I've already done a cursory search on FAS and I seem to be having a problem, not sure how to fix it. I have a patch that has the tone I want and I want to loop that continuously. When I put the loop as the first or second FX it retains my patch tone, if I put it at the end...

    Rihanna - We Found Love

    I've been intensley listening and shedding 45 songs for my first full gig with my new band this coming Saturday. I really like their mix of covers and there is a good bit of rock stuff, I could probably play 95% of the gig using the Brit Silver and rolling off my guitar... but I want to set...

    How are you using your EV Live 112XP?

    I have one and I'm A/B'd it with a tube amp. I have not gone nuts choosing perfect IR's. I really want FRFR to work for me now that I'm playing in a band that has FOH for everything at all of their gigs. I still like the squish and feel of the tube amp "in the room" but the EV is pretty close...

    Quick MFC 101 questions

    How does it connect to the II, via any standard Cat 5 cable? Is there an actual power supply that still plugs into a power strip and then connects to the II? If so, is it a wall wart style power supply? The power supply that comes with the Rocktron Midi Raider is a very large wall wart and it's...

    Anyone run 4CM AND direct to FOH?

    Just wondering if this is possible. Right now I'm testing FRFR with an EV Live 112P and I don't know if I'm in love, but I need a LOT more time to decide. I have a Blackstar HT20 which is actually a VERY cool, very capable amp in it's own right. It has dual EL34's in the power section and I...
