It cannot function as a dedicated MIDI controller for the Axe-Fx. It will send basic MIDI commands but it is not intended to be a MIDI controller.
I was hoping it would at least send CC, PC, and the expression pedals.
That's really too bad. I was hoping it would at least send CC, PC, and the expression pedals. I'd love to have something I can use as a basic controller for the Axe-Fx that would at least switch patches and scenes, and that I could then just unplug and take with me for practice/gigs where there are usually amps already available.
If you use midi instead of relays for amp switching -- can relay 1 & 2 be reassigned as a loop for a stomp pedal?
Same question applies to two expression pedal jacks.
Thanks
Arn't relays based on a on/off state?can relay 1 & 2 be reassigned as a loop for a stomp pedal?
Under $1000 is my guess too... in fact, I'd hope for a ridiculous price such as $699.99. But I doubt that low. I assume $999.99 would be more likely.
To all those I have seen suggest it will be $1700 or $1800, insanity.
I know it's important to some for Fractal products to remain "exclusive" to only "financially serious" guitar players. But to people like me, who can afford and do own Fractal products, my excitement for them is such that I would love to see those without such devoted pocketbooks a chance at dabbling in the same tonal playground many of us know so well.
If you really love Fractal, hope for it to expand into new demographics, don't let pride get in the way of sensibility.
What? No dedicated spider entry points...??

Will it have auto engage capabilities for expression pedals?
Maybe not...a basic mono cable will work for the channel switching in the relay
Note that each relay jack is TRS so there are two relays per jack so you get four relay outputs.

I have a Blackstar Combo so I am trying to figure out how to channel switch with the FX8
