@austinbuddy whoa. Thank you very much!
Preset won't, but the .blk files are for the AxeFX II. Axe-Edit III doesn't yet have .blk file support.Thanks. I guess they won't work in the Axe fx 2?
I had an A/DA Flanger many years ago and it was my all time favorite pedal. I have not heard any flanger pedal since that can duplicate the way that pedal sounded. Would you mind sharing settings on the flange block to reproduce the A/DA sound? Thanks.I have an original ADA Flanger that I always loved, and when I first got an Axe FXII years ago one of the first things I did was try and dial in the flanger to duplicate the ADA Flanger. I went back and forth with an A/B box and dialed it in. It took a while because I was new to the Axe FX, but I was able to get very very close. I tried out the factory settings of the different Flangers in the Axe FXIII and they sounded very good to me.
Side note: the most intense effect any flanger can achieve occurs at 50% mix. Anything beyond that, and the effect is reduced.
No flanger I've ever heard sounds like TSOR (studio version), no matter how it is adjusted. The Electric Mistress and Loft sound nothing like it (which he supposedly used). Lifeson's live tone sounded nothing like the studio recording. To my ears, the effect sounds far more like a phase shifter, and I have achieved a far more accurate result using the Axe's Phaser block than I ever could with the Flanger.I think I would agree in part, although I mostly blame myself for being unable to replicate really specific tones due to my own failings in understanding what created the original tone in the first place. Being able to dial in the nuanced difference between individual units is a layer of complexity I hadn't considered. I had a decent reproduction of the Alex Lifeson "The Spirit of Radio" intro with the AxeFx II (currently gathering dust in a closet) but can't get as close with the III yet. Yet being the operative word. I'm fairly confident it's in there, I just need to tweak some more. With that tone (as well as many classic tones we chase), there are so many variables and unknowns in regards to how the final sound on the recording was achieved that I think we end up chasing our tails some of the time.
