    Interesting Problem using Update All Amp Presets

    Forgive me, I am at work now, not in front of my AxeFx ... the feature names may not be exact. When I select to update all the Amps in Presets feature, it runs for a minute or so, and when it finishes the current preset shows the incorrect name. Then when I move to another preset, eventually...

    The bright knob is killer

    I am OCD with the treble on my presets, and I always wish there was more to fiddle with. And walla ... the bright knob takes care of that area in the tone that always perplexed me. It really works well, and does not change the overall feel ... at least on my Marshall based presets. Awesome...

    About all those expensive "new" AxeFXIIs on Ebay ...

    How the heck did those vultures get them all? I kept checking the stock the last two weeks, and saw a post that maybe the first of the month the stock would be replenished. And it was showing stock this morning, so I grabbed my backup (finally). But what gives with the $2600 units on...

    Serious Question about Updating to v11B

    Please take a moment and understand my question. I am gigging and practicing and don't have a ton of time to update my presets. I use a lot of presets for the band, I dial in the effects and amps to most songs we do ... it blows peoples minds ... love my AxeII! So please. No lectures...

    Anybody have a tone close to the Stones' Ampegs from the early 70s?

    Or even the Doobies tones from China Grove. Can't seem to find anything close enough to those overdriven bass amps LOL. And I love that tone. Suggestions for an amp to start with? I happen to be a Stones freak, have gotten a lot of Keef's tones by combining a few amps etc.. like he does...

    USA Lead amp help!

    Ok, I use the USA Lead amp for Foo Fighters tunes and a few choice classic rock songs ... and I have not been able to dial it in with version 10. What cabs do you Mesa pros use? My old 9 presets sounded like mud after the upgrade, mostly due to the Depth now defaulting to a high value for...

    Switching to V9xx in 10xx firmware?!?

    Hi, I have looked for the answer, can't find it ... In the past I have copied bank A to bank B when a new firmware release came out that had the old firmware as a global option. This way I can practice with my 50+ patches, come home, switch to the latest frimware in the globals, and...

    Version 7.0

    I have to admit, I had a lousy summer, had a few bouts with diver-tickle-itis and some outpatient surgery, and was not in the mood to go through another firmware update. But I make it my rule to keep up to date, and I begrudgingly have been plowing through my 36 band presets and tweaking the...

    Axe Edit & Firmware 7.0

    I notice the Axe Edit (latest version) shows Bassman for all my Y amp settings, no matter which preset I call up from the Axe. I can edit off the Axe menus, but has anybody else seen this, and is this expected? I am digging the new sound of my presets, hard to describe the change, but I...

    Multiple Effect switching on IA switches?

    Ok, I use a Midimate currently, I have multiple X/Ys on the same CC number, so that hitting that switch on the Midimate turns on/off everything as I have set in each preset. So for a lead, I switch amps, delay, chorus, drive etc. by hitting that X/Y switch. I don't see where that is...

    MFC Will Not Update using MidiOx

    I had problems updating this MFC before, sent it to Fractal, they updated it with no problem. This was after trying everything here on my end with tech support. So I have had it awhile, can't use it, because I had gigs and my presets are arranged for a Midimate. No problem. Have time...

    Went from 5.7 to 6.1 ... tweaking suggestions?

    6.01 tweaking tips? Can somebody give me the quick and dirty as to what to focus on for tweaking now that I have finally upgraded? I use 50 amps, two A/Bs on 25 presets, and that is a bit of work. Cutting down my efforts by having some general idea of what others did would help. I will...

    Anybodu have 1.00 firmware sys file, or some other previous release?

    While I am waiting to continue getting my MFC to work with tech support, does any body have an older release I can grab, maybe 1.00 for the MFC? I would appreciate it. Brian

    Error 14

    Bought a used MFC off the forum, the firmware was older than 1.0 ... Read Yeks Wiki on how to update, using Midiox through the AxeII to the MFC. File starts to go, MFC gets up to some number - and Error 14 pops up. Tried the buffer settings like Yek suggested ... 7 attempts have...

    Synth part in Free Ride?

    Anybody have any ideas on how to get close to that synth part in the break? Whammy for the pitch I suppose, but what about the sound itself??

    Advice on going direct to PA plus using Atomic FRFR

    I have a powered mixer with gain input, but the balanced input from the Axe is so hot I have to almost turn the gain off ... and the tone suffers. I was wondering if using a transformer to go into the unbalanced line-in would be a good idea ... or would that also ruin my tone? I have a...

    Suggestions for getting effect in song ...

    I am doing I Just Want To Celebrate in a band, and the break part has what seems to be an overloaded echo unit in the background. I would like to do that on my guitar, anybody already do something like this? I am not an effects guy at all, unless it is wah or chorus based. No clue...

    Axe II vs Ultra

    Well, I have had 6 weeks or so to setup my Axe II ... and I must say there are some obvious improvements vs the Ultra: 1) The default amp settings are good sounding out of the box, before tweaking. I use an Atomic 50 watt cab, and unlike the Ultra, the presets shipped with the unit sound...

    Rotary Question

    I use the rotary on songs where I don't have time to switch rhythm and lead ... so it would be great to be able to completely stop the rotary from moving somehow. I have it hooked up to a pedal, and in the control edit the minimum is at it's lowest possible. I didn't touch the curve , so it...

    Expression pedal assigned to control a phaser in Vibe mode does not work.

    Firmware 2.00C An expression pedal assigned to control a phaser in Vibe mode does not work. I have a Midimate, and have the Expression 1 controlling Chorus, Rotary, Flanger, and Wah Wah. They all work fine in all my patches. However, when I assign that same Expression 1 to control the...

    Midimate External Pedal / Axe FX settings / what the heck am I doing?

    Ok, I have used the Midimate successfully with the Axe for a few years, but never used an expression pedal. Just bought an M-Audio pedal, feels great, it was recommended. So I plug it into the Pedal input of the Midimate. So far so good. I go into the Controller section, and assign the...

    Atomic FRFR and FOH: Best experiences hooking both up?

    I copy L->R on Input 1, I have no stereo effects. I know the possibilities for going to the FOH and to the Atomic at the same time, but I am not sure what works best. Any opinions? I basically run the XLR output of Out1 to FOH, and the 1/4 plug out of Out2 to the Atomic. I am not...

    Resetting Sequencer When Effect is activated again?

    Just got my Atomic FR ...

    This is not a thread to discourage anybody from buying what I think are the two best solutions to running the Axe-Fx FRFR ... it is just FYI .... I own and love the Verve 12ma, but after reading the Fratomic board discussions it became clear the Fratomic had something to offer too ... First...

    9.0 amps sound phenominal ...

    I have many presets I have created over the past 9 months or so, and I update every time new firmware is released. This release has improved the amp tone so much, that I have been creating a bunch from scratch with default parameters ... and they are all sounding killer. Epsecially the...

    Gate problem ...

    I read where the Gate/Expander can be setup to operate like a Decimater .... by setting the input to Input 1 ... When I do that in the editor, it will not save it back to the Axe ... it changes to Row 4. This also makes the preset go dead ... Am I doing something wrong in the setup of the...

    Sound difference between Outs 1 and 2

    Ok, maybe I work on this stuff way too late after work and have lost touch with my sanity, but I am attempting to setup two paths in my presets, one for my normal power amp/cab setup, and one that includes a cab. I leave the Axe-Fx power amp settings alone, I have things tweaked on my VHT to...

    Power amp setting when using a dual PA/ Power Amp setup ...

    After a marathon of sorts yesterday with my AxeFx I have come to a crossroads of sorts ... I am not ready or setup to go fully through a PA, I hope to set up all my presets with the ability to go straight to the PA plus handle an existing power amp/cab. I read how using the effects loop block...

    Blink 182 Rhythm Sound ...

    Yeah, I know what you are thinking ... but honestly, I love the sound Tom Delonge gets, and I have read it was a mix of two amps ... a JCM900 and a Mesa Rectifier ... hard to describe the tone if you don't listen to them, but it has the low mid/bass punch of a Mesa with the high mid crunch of a...

    Update the Rotary Cabinet to function like H&K Rotosphere

    The Rotosphere is by far the most dramatic effect I have ever owned, setting the rotor and drum speeds different, along with gain control and ramp-up speed,made this effect huge. It would be a dream to have this reproduced in the AxeFx. The gain control allowed some tasty compression too. The...
