Help! LIVE SETUP Is this possible? Trying to route 4CM to use a real amp/cab on stage with separate output for FOH AND IEM.

Hi I’m looking to integrate a live setup where I can basically send an amp/cab sim to FOH and IEM. While sending another signal to my real amp head for stage volume and using pre / post effects. The way I understand to do this is For my Amp / Cab Axe Out 2 (Send) > Amp Front In Amp Send...

FM3 no audio from output 1 to FOH

Hello all, I'm new to Fractal products and have been enjoying the FM3 so far. If I may pick y'alls brain a bit, I'm having a issue with getting audio from the FM3 to FOH. At home, I use either the phones output for my headphones, or the left XLR output 1 to my mixer. I have no issues with audio...

Dual output - stereo stage monitoring and mono to FOH

This may be an easy setup question, but still being relatively new the AXE III, I’m hoping to get some guidance from those in the know :) If I want to run stereo on the stage but mono to FOH, is it simply a matter of splitting the end of the chain to two cabs (one set for stereo and one for...

Small mic + cable + accessory case

I've gone far too long without proper cases for my PA gear. Running an 8 channel mixer into the L/R house and usually 2 monitor wedges. At MOST will use 5 mics at once: 2x Vox, 3x Drums; everything else is always direct. Usually with the band we'll use all eight inputs on the mixer or close...

Can I run my axefx 2 through a passive Behringer PMX2000 PA system? I don’t want to risk blowing it

i’m sharing a band room with some buddies and we’ve already had some issues blowing fuses with our last PA system (which was notably more demanding). I just want to be sure running my AxeFx2 XL won’t run any risk of blowing the PA speakers, and also vice versa. I know this PA system is passive...

AX8 difference from interface to live setting. Help!

Ive had my AX8 for a couple weeks now. To build presets and get everything dialed in for live use, I would sit at home with XLR out (L and R) into my Focusrite interface and have a stereo audio track in Logic to monitor. I got to a place after a few days of tweaking where I was VERY happy with...

Output 1 for FOH Output 2 for CAB signal?

Hey guys, so I see the default preset in the AXE FX III has output 1 setup to go FOH and output 2 setup to go to the power amp and then cab. Anyone know if there is any benefit to using output 2 as opposed to output 3 or 4 to send your signal to the guitar cab? I am just trying to avoid buying...

Cutting Cab High's and Low's??

Been following a few guys on YouTube with Fractal gear and then their resultant patches have been downloaded and/or the theory applied. That is it seems to adjust the frequencies on the cab block to filter out the extreme high's and low's. Something like below 80 and above 8000 so you end up...
