Hi all
As a current Kemper user - but waitlisted AX8 buyer - here goes:-
=> even though the AX8 has dedicated FSW built-in I presume that it will still have the normal Axe FX switching lag from full preset to full preset ?
=> more generally, does X / Y switching also have the same full preset to full preset switching lag ?
If this switching lag is likely still going to be the case even with the AX8, my understanding is that the way to get "seamless" switching is via " Scenes " ..... so ....... with respect to setting up Scenes ........
=> in a given 12 block scene, and noting that I will only be able to run 1 x Amp Block at a time can I insert, say, 6 different Amp Blocks and have the 5 Amp Blocks that I don't want "by-passed", and just have the 1 Amp Block I do want for that Scene "un-bypassed" ?
=> if this " 6 x Amp Blocks in a Scene " is doable, will it be essentially impossible due to CPU load ?
=> or do Amp Blocks only use CPU-juice when they are active/un-bypassed ?
=> or more globally speaking, is the AX8 limited to only 1 x Amp Block per Scene ?
Hoping the above makes sense and that I have understood the "logic" and "methodology" of using Scenes correctly (?)
The reason I ask is that with my current Kemper Setup [ and planned AX8 setup ] for any given show, I use about 8 fully different / discrete "amps" [ie: Vox, Fender, Marhall, Gibson, DC30, Bogner, EVH, Div by 13 ] for all my sounds ....... but ........ I also often use several of these amps within songs, so moving from "amp-to-amp" seamlessly is pretty important.
Many thanks,
Ben
