    Power Amp Modeling with SS Power Amp + Direct FOH Setup

    Hi all! Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere but after some searching I couldn’t find much on my particular question. I’m interesting in switching to a hybrid setup for live shows, as in direct to FOH + solid state PA and cab. I’ll likely be grabbing a Powerstage 700. I know...

    First time with the FM3 in the studio

    My cousin asked me a few weeks ago to record some guitar tracks for a couple songs he's working on. I knew I wanted to use the FM3, but wasn't sure on how we were going to capture the sounds. We had a rehearsal and I played through the FX loop of a 5150 and a Marshall cab and while it sounded...

    Recording in adobe audition with axe ultra and interface

    So I got an axe ultra MKII for christmas as it's all I could afford and I love it except for having to use an audio interface instead of USB. I'm fairly new to recording my own stuff using a daw and even newer to ideas like DI and reamping. But I have a friend who is helping explain. My issue is...

    Direct to FOH Rig with IEM and vocals?

    Hi there, I am currently looking for advice on how to setup a direct to FOH Rig using the Axe FX ii. I have the Axe FX ii paired with the MFC101 and a Shure PSM300 IEM system. What I would like to do is send all guitars to FOH direct and control my own monitor mix from onstage along with my...

    Dweezil Zappa Clean Sound

    So I'm pretty new to the whole Axe Fx thing, as well as this forum so apologies if this has been asked a lot or something. My unit is the XL+, for reference. I am trying to figure out how Dweezil get's his clean tones, as seen in this vid at this mark-- I've heard him mention how it's suppose...

    computer speakers upgrade for AX8 direct?

    I have been running my AX8 thru my computer direct ....I get great tone and reasonable volume but without the heavy punch my amp creates even at lower volumes, so the wife is happy. My Question is I think I am over running my computer's speakers capabilities and am wondering what speakers would...

    Acoustic Direct Recording Test

    I have one of the new PRS SE Angelus A50E that has the Fishman GT1 piezo pickup in it. For the money, I'm pretty happy with it. I play it direct so I found some free acoustic IRs of Taylor 314s on the webs and made the following recording as a test. My recording/mastering skills are green so...

    80's Direct Sound For Stratocaster

    Here's my latest preset for that clean 80's DI Strat sound. It's geared more towards live because the highs are tamed a bit. Crank it through your FRFR at gig volume and it'll come alive. A few months ago there was a request for a patch to cover Lucky Star by Madonna. I tried my best to make...

    Problems switching from physical cab with a mic to direct

    Im kind of lost. I have been running my axe fx ii with a real cab with the cabinet modeling off. Last night at practice I decided to go direct and switch the cab modeling on to a similar cab to what I own. A MESA 2x12. Any way I thought it sounded killer and seems very transparent and cutting...

    Recording Ax8 + Dry Signal (DI) Simultaneously

    I'm picking up an Ax8 this Friday and was wondering if I'll be able to record a DI signal at the same time as the Ax8 audio. I have an Apollo Twin Solo (Thunderbolt) and a Radial Pro-DI (1-channel) DI box sitting around somewhere. I know I can XLR out of the Ax8 into the Apollo and record the...

    My live direct 5153 preset

    I did post this in the discussion section along with a video but always forget about this section that IS for presets. Here's the preset I used at my last few gigs. I ran direct to FOH and monitored through my CLR and IEMs. It's laid out like this (if you don't feel like watching the video but...

So basically when i record ill hear the preset I'm using but it will only record the dry track. I'm doing this so i can re amp the dry signal later. i...

    Axe Fx II Direct with USB to Mac/PC: The right way to set up everything?

    It's a question that's been picking my mind a lot. What are the parameteres (both on the Axe Fx I/O page and on whatever DAW) to look for and how to set them up the best way? Running direct into my Macbook with Cubase, I get 2.6ms input latency and 2.9ms output latency (enough to throw me off...

    Upgrade (Air Question)

    Hello everybody, I have been an owner of an axe ultra for some years now and sadly I had to sell the unit for economic reasons. But as soon as I can get back on my feet ill probably purchase and axe or a kemper. (Now this is not a kemper vs axe thread) Here is my concern. After years of tweaking...
