    Who else is upgrading to Axe-FX III TURBO? :-)

    Mine appears to look like a MKII. I racked it so can't check the back and am not sure if there is an indicator in an info screen. I do recall wondering if I were to sell it how can I show it is a Turbo. It was not obvious to me. I also wondered since I ordered right when it was announced maybe...

    Who else is upgrading to Axe-FX III TURBO? :-)

    I got my Turbo last Friday. I am still confused... I am unable to shred 25% faster. Otherwise it is as great as my MK1 with those nice additions. Fyi the purpose for my upgrading is for recording and to see if the subtle AITR can be sensed in the mixes.

    Recording AES/SPDIF vs. Analog

    USB has not been an option for me as it requires using different drivers than my RME interface. I have always recorded the Axe through a digital output at 48k. Recently I wired the analog outputs to a patchbay which allowed me to record both signals simultaneously. I was surprised that to my...

    Recording AES/SPDIF vs. Analog

    That is interesting. So the digital out has a lower latency than the analog outs? Do you know by how much? Thx.

    Recording AES/SPDIF vs. Analog

    I have always recorded using AES at 48k. Recently I simultaneously recorded the analog outs and found distinct differences in tone. Both with pros and cons and both sounding great. However, I find myself considering using the analog signal. For those that have tried both, what made you chose...

    Sweeping inputs with expression pedal

    This is great. I am not at my rig at the moment... I take it I can assign my expression pedal to the mixer block? I haven't used the mixer block before. Fun time tonight. Thanks for both replies!

    Sweeping inputs with expression pedal

    When you have a patch with two inputs how/where can the expression pedal be assigned to blend and sweep between them? I was looking at the Petrucci patch and wondered how you can go from mag pickups to piezo using the pedal.

    I ordered around the same time as you but did not receive a tracking number or anything indicating it shipped. I take it you did? I am not looking to start a new list :) but how long have others waited to receive shipping info after ordering?

    Use for the AES input

    I recently changed some of my audio interface connections due to new monitors using the AES out. Previously this ran to my Axe II but I am not certain it was ever utilized. The Axe is still outputting via AES to the audio interface, which is my method for recording. My concern is this new...

    Re-amping without using III as audio interface?

    If I use the ASIO drivers for my existing audio interface will I still be able to leverage the extra I/O of the III to re-amp in the same manner as if the III was my audio interface? I guess what I am asking is will my DAW see all the I/O of the III via USB without using the Fractal ASIO...

    Accessing Bank D on the XL with MFC-101 MK1

    I got a second note from fractal support that clarifies the matter: "To be clear, an update will be forthcoming that makes access Bank D on the Axe-fx II XL possible, but the MFC-101 can only have 384 presets which equates to three banks on the Axe-fx." So we will be able to control bank D...

    I confirmed with Fractal support that the MFC Mach III cannot be upgraded via firmware to recognize the extra bank on the XL.

    FASLINK Adapters? (XLR to Ethercon)

    Can someone clarify- Do you still need to buy the FASlink component discussed in this thread if you have an XL and MFC MIII? Or can you just plug any ol' xlr cable into the built-in jacks of each device?

    Dedicated Looper Midi Controller

    Anyone aware of a small midi controller suited for controlling the looper with no extra buttons, pedals or features? Something similar to a looper stompbox that controls the axe fx? This would be for studio use only and would need to be significantly cheaper than the 101. Any recommendations?

    is it worth buying the mfc for the loop function?? need to use it for a show!

    What would be a good controller board for just the looper function? Something small and suited for the task. Just enough switches with no pedals etc...

    How do I reset to start with a fresh machine?

    Does performing a Reset as described in this thread eliminate the need to change the amp block to another amp and back to get the default settings? And is the discussed "backup" refered to a backup to the PC using AE or after loading the V10 banks they should be backed up internally to the...

    Re-amping without USB.

    Can this be done with only SPDIF connections between the axe-fx and the PC? I then connect the PC to a digital mixer via adat. So far I have only been able to record the ana;pg outs of the re-amped signal.

    Re-amp from Spdif

    Can an unprocessed recorded track be returned via spdif for re-amping? I can't give up my asio drivers to the Axe FX II.
