Hi, I originalIy posted this in the "IF YOU READ NOTHING ELSE, READ THIS!!!" thread but a new specific thread seemed more appropriate.
I have a very intermittent issue with my Axe Fx3. Have had suspected trouble for a bit of over a year, and have mentioned to my local supplier a few times and per discussions have since been trying to troubleshoot source of issue. First issue was Feb 2019, just doing some last minute practice on bass before heading off for a performance when it just went dead. In a panic, I thought it was the bass, swapped basses and all good and performance went fine into different venue rig setup.
Have since had a series of sporadic issues mainly on guitar where the sound would not fully cut-out, but become very muffled with lower (almost imperceptible unless turned way up) volume out of my monitor. So I have been gradually eliminating potential sources of the issue - removed the presonus audiobox from the chain and swapped to small yamaha mg06x mixer. Still experienced issues. Changed guitars and then also leads and still problem occurred at the time, noting this is random ad-hoc and not readily reproducible. Removed the yamaha mixer and went direct to my presonus eris monitor. Issue still occurred. Latest change has been to the XLR cable and have now switched to new mogami gold. Problem has just reoccurred this time on bass with a full cut out. AX3 front panel indicators seemed to have frozen. No discernible sound / signal at all. I rebooted and all good again. (I have some video but need to get off phone and trim - will post if I can sort this).
Current FW 12.08.
Hoping someone can help with advice on further trouble shooting or confirm it is what I fear it to be - an issue with the Axe 3.
Many thanks.
