hi ya, new to the board and to the axe fx so please excuse my ignorance!
i am seriously considering buying an axe fx 2, but to do so i would have to sell off a bunch of my gear to fund the purchase. i am looking for something new and an "all in one" solution for my amp and fx sounds.
what am wondering is can the axe fx 2 be tweaked live "on the fly" like you would do with a stomp box? for example i have a strymon el capistan and an mxr carbon copy which are awesome sounding delay pedals. i have a couple of parts in some of my songs where max out the regeneration and delay on the pedals and then sweep knob the delay quickly back and forth so i can get crazy oscillating madness! huge swells and dips and beeps and dives and siren noises! is this same sort of "hands on" live tweakability possible with the axe fx 2? if i was playing a patch that i had created which was say a high gain lead sound with a tape echo delay in the fx loop.....how could i just walk up to the axe fx and instantly start tweaking the "regeneration" parameter for the delay? would i need to go into a menu and sub-menu etc. and get into the settings of the delay, then select parameter and only then be able to start tweaking?
i hope that makes sense!!
your advice is greatly appreciated!
