    As it seems, I am a black metal musician, but I also play most metal genres and random noises. I'd like to see some really poor and low quality sound coming from the Axe FX III. Talking about cabs and mics, anything that someone could buy for 50$ in a chinese store. Most norwegian raw black...

    Delay recalls sound from before switching it on.

    Something I like doing (also with non AX8 Delays) is to put an expression pedal on the effect level of the delay, so I can play around with the delay. A problem that hasn't come up with other delays, is that the ax8 seems to recall what was played BEFORE the delay is switched on. But often I...
