    Channel swap

    The fact that you can swap scenes is very helpful. It gives you the opportunity to work very fast and efficient. Is there a way to swap channels too? I see the option to only copy one channel to another one. Please refer to attached pictures. Channel Scenes

What would be a good way to set up each scene volume wise? Should they all be equally loud? I am gonna be the only...

    Axe FX II MFC 101 scenes?

    Hey y’all! Im new to fractal audi equipment and recently acquired an axe fx II and MFC101 midi foot controller. It’s my understanding that the “Scenes” weren’t introduced until Axe III, but I know there is a way to switch between scenes on the Axe II but under different terminology, and i can...

    MIDI that controls both Axe 3 scenes + external pedals (preamp ones such as OD and Noise Gate)

    I am looking for a MIDI foot controller than is small and portable, and can be setup to control both the Axe FX 3’s scenes and presets switching AND external pedals I use in front of the preamp (OD, Noise Gate). I currently use the Fractal’s amp modeling (so IN1 > OUT1) as my clean tone. I...

    Nuances of working with block channels...kind of confusing?

    External footswitch skips scenes

    Hi! I have connected a very simple dual external switch (tip and ring) to the pedal 2 jack of the FM3. I have tried to use the midi menu to program the switches so that the tip increases scenes while the ring decreases. It's not working properly: whenever I press one of the switches, it skips...

    Unwanted behaviour with default scene and MIDI (?)

    Hi folks, so far I didn't use the scenes in the Axe-Fx II & III, as I did all the programming (bypass states and channels) in my MIDI controller. But as I got the impression that scenes and their editing in Axe-Edit have come a long way, I'll probably change over to do what's possible with...

    Patch mode vs Scenes

    I had until recently been a scenes user but wasn't happy with my sounds. I've downloaded a bunch of presets I really like, but to switch between them all quickly I (believe) I need to be in 'sticky' patch mode (F1 held down). This gives me my 8 patches on the 8 main switches and mostly works...
