    Looking for Andy Summers/Police tones

    One of the first gigs I'll play with my new Axe 3 is a Police Tribute. It is a one-off gig with a pickup band and many guest vocalists, only 2-3 rehearsals and then a two hour show. Last year I did the gig with my absolutely un-Andy Summers guitar rig (pure vintage analog, non tech!), this year...

    Axe-Fx III Presets reference "Key"

    Is there any documentation on the axe-fx iii presets- essentially a list that describes the purpose of each preset, or provides any information? I see a list of the presets with which amp is modeled in the wiki, but nothing beyond. Such as if it was created to replicate a song, intended for...

    AFIII Guthrie Govan - Ancestral Solo with tone match preset

    Guthrie Govan has been my favorite guitar player for over a decade since I first heard him back in the mid 2000's. I used to buy the DVD's of his shows at Tone Merchants and then everything he ever recorded for what is now Jam Track Central, in hopes of someday being able to play any of his...

    AFIII Dreamy Clean (Magnetic/Piezo Split)

    This preset is designed for a Piezo equipped guitar running a split TRS cable (using both magnetic and Piezo pickups) for an amazing dreamy clean/acoustic sound. I used my Musicman Majesty JP 7 (Magnetic pickup set to middle single coil mode) Let me know what you think...

    High gain amp simulation feedback solutions?

    I'm hoping a few of you guys have some experience with moderately high gain amp settings in a live situation and can help me out. I'm in a Metallica tribute band and I've been trying to get their current live tone. It's not insanely high gain like Slayer, but it seems to have enough that I'm...

    Axe3 Tonematch IR won’t appear for Ax8 use

    I made an acoustic guitar tone match on my Axe Fx3 and exported it as a user cab. I then exported the user cab as a .syx file. In Ax8 cab browser, this file can not be seen in the directory. In AxeFx3 cab browser, it can be found as expected. Is there a compatibility issue here, and perhaps...

    FC USB Port for Axe Edit (Wish)

    I wonder if it will be possible to access Axe Edit or FracPad by plugging a PC or tablet into the FC 6/12 USB port. Since FasLink II supports bi-directional communication, this seems to be quite a feasible possibility. I’m aware that the USB port is listed as “reserved for future use,” and...

    AFIII 80s 84LL4D

    Hey guys just released my newest montly album and this one has more guitars (not as many as synths yet..) Anyway the track 3P1C.85 has my "sunday" lead tone in the chorus which I think came out pretty sweet! It's basically the matchless and the ac30. I'm trying to meet more people to...

    RJM GT-22 plus Axe-Fx III — How do you handle 8-scenes?

    I’ve got an RJM GT-22 and Axe III. I frequently accept the default settings that get imported from the “Get All Presets” function. This works alright for presets with 6 scenes or less. But many presets use all 8 scenes. How do handle this? The device only has the 6 buttons on the bottom...

    Just updated my firmware and now I only get a bright white screen. Everything works just fine, I can still make sounds from the unit and Axe Edit is still working with it.......just the screen is white. What do I do?

    Another "just got it !"...

    Hi all, I've been on the fence for an Axe FX for quite some time, but was never convinced of the practicalities of using it live and how to combine it with my other gear and tube amps. For recording I was too addicted to my VG99 (which, in it’s own right, is also a fantastic piece of gear if...

    Logic Pro X and Axe-Fx III compatibility?

    Is there a compatibility issue with the AxeFx III and Logic? I have continually received a notification on the screen stating that the 'Volume "LaCie" is full', referring to the external hard drive I'm using, which has plenty of space on it. This seems to happen mostly when I have a track that...

    Moog Sub 37 and Axe-Fx III

    Starting a new thread here (i think)- Wondering if any of the forum members use the Axe III with synthesizers. If so, whats your preferred method to hook it up (instrument input on the front, stereo or mono in the back etc), what kind of presets have you created (what amp cab effects combos...

    Scene Switching Damping Parameter

    I'm not sure if this is even possible but having the ability to morph from one scene to the next with damping would be epic. I think I have heard this discussed but I believe it was before the III came out. I wasn't sure if there would be a way to do this now.

    Why no pick attack?

    I'm moving from a II to a III and have used the pick attack adjustment on all my main presets. Why was this removed? Is there a way to replicate it on the III?

    Re-amping in Logic

    Could someone explain the process of re-amping in Logic with the Axe-FX III? I have attempted to re-amp my direct signal in Logic using essentially the same methods by which I would use for the II XL+, with the exception of setting up my D.I. track as outputs 5 and 6 instead of 1 and 2...
