    Having trouble finding good info on drop tuning FRFR setup

    I play drop C in a hard rock (wouldn't say metal, but some songs 'get there') band with an off the boat Russian (hard hitting) drummer. I just made the AXE FX II XL+ purchase and I've been driving myself nuts looking at the different speaker options. I was originally looking at the Matrix...

    For those of you that go direct to the PA.. do you also have your own FRFR solution on stage?

    Hey guys Yep.. probably a repeat thread/question one way or another.. So, I'm going to start embracing the FRFR thing when playing live by going direct to PA/FOH, and I was curious to know if any of you AX8-players were also using/bringing your own stage monitor/wedge/FRFR solution, and not...

    Just bought the AX8! Stoked.. A couple questions though.. (wah & dual outputs...)

    Hey guys, I'm back on the Fractals again and loving it so far :D I forget how damn good the amp sims actually. Got a couple standard noob-type questions.. 1, Firstly, is there some sort of FX block that can act as a wah, or auto-wah? I'm hoping to possibly achieve this by not needing an...

    It is very rare to find someone who is as committed to deliver their products as passionate as his customer is... this is Mick. I have made one of the longest email threads I had ever made related to a purchase and he was up for it every single time. Never have I received any complaint or...

    First FRFR experience. Holy crap!

    I got my Axe-Fx II XL+ back in November and have been really (read: thrillingly) pleased with it so far. It has cured my GAS for pedals and amps, as well as given me so much more. The next logical step was FRFR, since I didn't want to keep routing it through the effects loop of the head I have...

    Avatar G212 TRADITIONAL FRFR

    Has anyone checked these out? I have a Matrix FR212 now and I'm thinking of adding one of these new FRFR cabs from Avatar, the G212 TRADITIONAL FRFR. 500 watts RMS @4 or 8ohms. They are $729, over $200 less than the Matrix FR212 price. I want to stand up to my other guitarist's 4x12(s), who also...

    The greatest tone from the AX8. EVER.

    Oh my word. I nearly wet my dog (my dog, Toffee, was unharmed in the making of this video. He seems to like loud guitar music though, which is a good thing). I Installed FW 6.02 on my AX8 this weekend, tweaked a bit on my main dirty patch and quickly recorded this clip to test out my new Zoom...

    AX8 output questions

    Hi folks! Just got my AX8 last week for my Christmas :) I have a question about the output section of my AX8. I am thinking how can I connect the PA to FOH and my amp fx loop at the same time. Physically I know I will send my two XLR cable to FOH and 4cm to my amp, but how about the software...

    Basic FRFR question

    I originally thought I would use my Axe just for recording, but it sounds so good through my home studio monitors that I have been exploring possible FRFR options for a live setting. There are of course a bewildering variety of options, and I am not here to ask which one I should get. I’ve been...

    Excellent support experience with Atomic

    Hey Guys, I know there has been some criticism of Atomic's support on this forum, but I want to try and put you minds at ease. There does seem to be some issue with the e-mail routing that Tom needs to sort out, however, once I was in contact with Tom, he called me immediately and walked me...

    atomic clr alternative?

    Hi, Can anybody here recommend me a good frfr monitor to go with the ax8 like the atomic clr but in a smaller footprint? I'm trying to downgrade my rig and avoid taking amps for gigs..that's why I went for the ax8... I will mostly rely on FOH and in ears but I need something to use at home...

    Matrix FR212/GT1000 users - advice?

    Hey all. I'm a relatively experienced Fractal user. I recently picked up Matrix FR212 + GT1000 power amp combo as an alternative to a CLR, which I have since sold. Understanding as I do that FRFR will likely never feel the same a regular guitar cab, I wanted to see if the 2x12 would get...

    New XiTone cab

    Thought I'd post a few pics of my new powered XiTone cab. I've been mostly playing my AFX II through a traditional power amp and cab, but wanting to try the FRFR setup for a while now. Took the plunge and was not disappointed. It looks and sounds amazing. Haven't enjoyed my AFX this much in a...

    Purchases to go with the AX8?

    Hello, After some consideration, I decided to go for an AX8 and am on G66's waiting list. Even though I'll keep my tube amp for a while, I want to use the AX8 with a FRFR monitor. So I have a few questions. 1) Regarding the "secondary" purchases, there will be a good cable (like the Humbuster)...

    Mission Gemini 2-P SE

    I decided my Alto TS speakers just do not cut it when jamming with the rest of a band. No matter how much EQing I do on the output, they just don't sound right. As luck would have it, work gave me a sizable bonus so I've gone and invested in some true FRFR gear. I already have the Matrix...

    What guitar amplification would you use live? (Metal music)

    Hey there. Let's say you are a guitarist in a metal band. You play in relatively small pubs and clubs and you need guitar amplification. The front line of the audience are listening mostly to the stage audio, not the PA. You want the front row of the audience to experience your show at it's...

    Anyone still using QSC k12 need help with what to do with EQ blocks?

    Hi All, Still trying to get the best out of the axe fx 2. I'm worried I made the wrong investment in the QSC k12 for a stage monitor. I'm just using EQ, Amp, Cab and Reverb block to keep things simple. I play classic and alternative rock on a Strat. I'm seeing postings that the k12 is not...
