    POD MIDI Control Automatically Turning Effects OFF On Axe Fx

    Hello, I'm using my Line 6 POD HD500x as a MIDI controller for my Axe FX II Mark II. I'm changing presets by changing the patches on the POD. But for some reason when I use FS8, right after it changes the preset it turns off all the effects I have in my preset. It only keeps the amp and cab. I...

    FX8 Used as Effects Processor with Kemper - MIDI PROBLEMS

    I have set up my new Fractal Audio FX8 to work as an effects processor for the Kemper Profiler. I had abandoned my full Axe-FX rig maybe a year ago in favor of the amplifier tones available in the Kemper. That was a correct decision. That said, the effects in Kemper are adequate but not even...

    Storing Presets on Behringer FCB1010 with Ultra?

    Hi guys, would someone very gently write me a step-by-step guide to how to store presets on the Behringer FCB1010 with no Eureka chip in it? It's quite a challenging pedalboard to me. Thanks!

    Marshall JCM410HJS vs. FX8

    Hey guys, I'm running my FX8 in front of my Marshall JVM model. With my old setup, I ran a G-Lab GSC-3 looper in front of it, to do all my pedal-switching and channel changes via MIDI. Now that I've upgraded to the FX8, it's time for it to pick up where the G-Lab left off. The thing is, I...

    New to FX8

    Hi guys, I just got a second hand FX8 Mk I, and I'm really stoked on integrating this in my setup - however, I'm an analog caveman - your digital and midi-controlled effects confuses me! Currently I'm running a Marshall JVM410hJS, which I controll all the switching on via MIDI, while running...

    Scene switching live

    I am trying to streamline the process of scene switching live, and wondering if folks have suggestions to that end. Under my current setup, I use song mode with a bank size of 5 and mostly switch presets to change sounds within songs. For some presets, I use scenes inside of songs and make...

    SOLVED. Effects staying on in scenes?

    hi everyone.. I have a FX8 with the latest firmware. I am using switches 5 - 8 to control scenes selections which are programmed to change channels on my amp using MIDI. Switches 1-4 are being used to turn on/off individual effects over the top of the amp channels. My problem is when I am on...

    Hey guys, I've been using the G and the AxeFX Ultra together for a long time with success, even adding a Bome MIDI Translator to the setup to enable keystrokes for Ableton Live clip launches. Now, I recently got a Strymon Big Sky and I'm able to switch presets on the Big Sky via MIDI, but they...

    Changing Presets on the AxeFx with Cubase (Connettivity and Parameters)?

    I know it's an already discussed topic, but I don't want to browse between 15 threads on 5 forums to get this sorted out; a sum up of what I need/need to set would be more accessible to anybody trying to do the same thing. :D I know I have to set a MIDI lane and pick the spots where I want the...

    Wish More than 2 Midi Footswitches

    I could use more than 2 midi footswitches. For my setup, 4 would be fantastic and add a lot of flexibility. I'm using my FX8 to also drive amp switching on my Mesa Mark V via an RJM mini amp gizmo. I'm using 1 at the moment for my boost/solo selection which works tidily, and I'm having to use...

    Wish Ax8 with MFC 101

    Hi guys, i wish the Ax8 could be able to communicate bidirectional with the MFC 101. The MFC can control the AX8 over midi but it don't communicate the state of the stompboxes in presets or scenes. Some of us use an external midi Controller to have more possibilities with the AX8, it will be...

    [Not a Bug] presets not changing using Tech21 Midi Moose

    I use a tech 21 midi controller that has worked fine for many years. I believe my midi io on my fx2 may have been changed accidently. My presets no longer change (even though I observe the red midi LED light flash when the foot pedal is engaged. The only thing that changed is my upgrage to...

    Patch change GR-55 ith Axe-FX

    I have a Roland GR-55 running into my Axe-FX's FX Input 2/FX Return and output a blend of the guitar tone and Roland midi tone. I would like to change both the Axe-FX patch and the GR-55 patch in changing preset on the MFC-101. I imagine that, theoretically, this is possible but am finding this...
