Hey all,
I've got a really bizarre issue with my AxeFXIII and the FC-12 which I believe is due to some sort of power issue, but wanted to throw the scenario out here and see if anyone else has experienced something similar.
We play around 25 shows a year, and I've never had issues except for at one specific venue. Both times at this venue, the FC-12 seems to 'mostly' lock up. I have the FC-12 set up with setlist / song buttons, typically 4 scene buttons and up to 4 effect bypass buttons. When the FC-12 locks up, I can't change scenes or bypass / enable effects, but can still advance to the next song in a setlist, but then those scenes and effects are also locked. The AxeFXIII is fine as I can change scenes from the front panel, but obviously not ideal during a show. The only solution was to unplug the Faslink / XLR cable and re-insert, and then it was ok again......sometimes for a song or two, but then locks up again. We have a spare FC-12 for the band as our bassist also uses one, and that one locked up too.
Once again, I've never seen this happen anywhere else and both times playing this venue I had these type of issues.
I am running everything through a Furman power conditioner.
Has anyone else ever ran into similar issues, and if so, is there a solution other than 'don't play at that venue'?
Thanks,
Bill
