HELP - Axe FX is killing my tone

I use the 4CM for my Fractal Axe FX 3 Mk. 2. When I was playing yesterday, I heard a pop, and since then I’ve had lower volume and worse dynamics/gain. There is also a high pitched squeal. When the FX loop is bypassed, everything is normal. When I activate the FX loop but with nothing in the...

My band's new single (All Axe-Fx II XL): Room For Zero - Too Bad [80s pop]

I see a lot of higher gain tones showcased here, but not a ton of pop / indie / alternative stuff. I thought this might be nice to show off here. All guitars are direct from the Axe II into my Antelope Discrete 8 via SPDIF. We usually use the Axe as an interface to record the parts + DIs...

Just used the Axe-Fx III for client's country/pop recording

I thought some of the folks considering a fractal might like to hear the FX-III being used in a non hard rock/metal genre. Here is some work I just finished for a country/pop artist. Not having to mic up an amp, wear headphones for overdubs, or remove amp hum was a huge plus. For the curious...

Hey, all!! My band ROOM FOR ZERO ( http://www.roomforzero.com/ ) just wrapped up our debut LP a couple weeks ago. We're releasing the whole thing on Friday, but we dropped our new single a little early. I figured I'd share it here since there aren't too many AxeFx recordings of this genre on...

NEW BASS DAY!!

I got me a new bass and had to record a new clip. There's a lot of "coming soon" being used on this song but more on that later. I noticed that all my favorite bass sounds from Foo Fighters to Green Day to even Blink 182 where the bass is loud in the mix and still not overbearing are a Fender...
