    Bug? Momentary Control Switch (Per Preset)

    I followed @Cooper Carter 's tutorial here: However, instead of updating the Effect Layout, I wanted to setup a momentary switch for CS1 on a FC-Per Preset but it does not work: Am I missing something? Holding the switch while in Per Preset layout, does not momentarily engage the pitch...

    Wish Add input source to pitch block.

    This request goes for the pitch block across models, but it affects me most on the FM3 where I'm pushing up against the processor limits so posting here. I've been working on a patch where the pitch block is in parallel with the reverb block. Those blocks are preceded by a stereo effect, and I...

    Scene Ignore - Weird Preset Behaviour

    I have this preset where I have a Pitch block set to act as a -1 Virtual Capo, acting like a Whammy dropping the tuning down a half step. I have been experiencing some weird outcomes with this preset. I have it set to Scene Ignore for that block, as I want it to be on the entire preset (scene...

    Songs and preset switching with Pitch block

    I'm working on a looper practice set. I have a song defined that has one scene from a preset where the Pitch block is engaged, and scenes from a different preset where there is a Pitch block in the preset, but in the scenes I'm using in the song the Pitch block is bypassed. I have a set where...

    Dual Detune Delay fun

    As the Pitch block now features a new type - Dual Detune Delay - I thought it might be fun to write a patch that features it. So here it is. Video Preset http://axechange.fractalaudio.com/detail.php?preset=9502

    Making an Effect Stay on When Changing Scenes??

    Maybe this is in the documentation but I didn't find it. I use scenes in my main gig preset. I can switch to all 8 scenes to get the variety of tones I need for our set. We tune a 1/2 step down, but there are a few songs that we do in standard tuning. In the past I would use a capo, but with the...

    Pitch block (AxeFx-II): shared controllers quick reference chart

    Made this a while ago (and, reliably forgot to post it here!) as I couldn't find anything similar online. Don't know if it's going to be of use to anyone but I figure I can't be the only one who needs it. If you use different models on the Pitch block's different X and Y channels it may be...

    Echo type bug with the Pitch block - Dual and Quad chromatic

    I've just recently noticed that when I load the attached preset (default scene is Scene #2) where I use 2 dual chromatic pitch blocks, I get an echo even if I change my delay settings of the pitch blocks to 0mS. The only way I found to get out of this issue is to select one of the pitch blocks...

    Pitch block settings

    Hi I got a quick ? I’m trying to figure out where the best place to put a pitch block in my chin I created a SRV tone and using the virtual capo to tune it a half step down, but when I do it sounds really synth like and not correct. So I was wondering the best way to make it sound good with the...

    You guys are the best.... We just need a little help with PITCH!

    Hey Guys: I wanted to start out by saying - You guys are amazing. You hit it out of the park with the AXE FX III. I have tried them all. KEMPER, LINE 6. A few of your older models. The AX FX III is RIGHT ON POINT. I’ve had band members come up to me and say that thing is magical, lyrical...

    Drop "D" Tuning set up

    So I read a bunch of stuff in the manual and in the FAS forums about the Pitch Block and Virtual Capo etc. But I couldn't find anything about only changing pitch of a single string such as a Drop "D" (a.k.a. Drop the "E" String only) Is this possible now with the updated Pitch Block ?

    Latency Using Virtual Capo

    Title pretty much describes the issue here. I noticed when using the pitch block and virtual capo option there is a very noticeable bit of latency. This is even after simplifying my signal chain. It is usable but a bit annoying.

    Pitch Shifting/Virtual Capo for Worship Gig

    As I've said before, I'm really digging the improved pitch block. I'm playing with a worship band this week and since the songs are being sung by a woman, we're shifting keys up quite a bit from the recordings. One of the songs is 2 1/2 steps up from the recording, so to keep the chords simple...

    Custom Scales 1/2 Step Off

    I am finally delving into the Custom Shift section of the Pitch block. For some reason the AX8 is detecting the notes I play as 1/2 step lower than they actually are. So a C is interpreted by the AX8 as a B. I am tuned to A440. The AX8 tuner shows the correct notes when I use it. Anyone know...

    Wish Pitch Block improvements of Axe-Fx III

    It would be really great if AX8 could get pitch block improvements of Axe-Fx III, so we could have accurate down tuning etc. Thanks :)

    Bug? Pitch Block Intelligent Harmony not initialising properly when Harmony set to 1

    I have been experiencing a problem with the Pitch Block and think it might be a bug. I am using an intelligent Harmoniser with Voice 1 Harmony set to 1 (original pitch), and the Voice 2 level at 0 (I'm just using voice 1). It's an unusual configuration but I am using it in stepped mode with a...

    Double-tracking (axe iii pitch block)

    I’ve used the enhancer block and HAAS delay to mimick two guitars being played at once on my axe ii. The new pitch block for the axe iii has something called double-tracking. Anyone have any info on is? I’m super intrigued!

    Wish Pitch tracking below bass G

    This is the only thing stopping me from getting serious about using the AX8 live with bass. It tracks a G1 on the E string nicely but warbles on F# & below. 'Twould be nice if it went down to B0 (or A0 for those drop tuners). Then I could cop the guitar-doubling-bass sound. Mucho gracias!

    Pitch block to the rescue... sort of.

    Turned up for a rehearsal for a guest spot on a Fleetwood Mac tribute night. I'm the token heavy metaller on the night, which is cool by me. I'm doing The Chain, and not being familiar with the song, I just learned it off the live video on YouTube, which is in drop-D. Of course, everyone else in...

    Using External Switches to trigger harmony momentarily

    Hello! I am trying to set up 2 external Boss FS-5U switches to trigger momentary harmonies (switch 1 = minor 3rd, switch 2 = perfect 4th). I've found that the pitch block modifier (set to external 1) is global (applies across all scenes within a preset). I know that I one way to accomplish...
