I'm not so sure.....I saw the movie.....all it takes is time and the will to self educate. you don't have to give up a kidney, or sign your soul over to the devil...
Hi TimMcG1011, I posted this link in the thread that you started............Simeon, sounds like you're the guy to ask questions on the intelligent harmony stuff.
I have the AX8 and as far as I can tell it functions the same way as the Axe Fx II.
I have Custom and tried setting it up as you recommend for Boys are back in town. Doesn't sound great. You reference the manual, but the AX8 manual doesn't have anything on using the Intel Harm Pitch block.
Can you tell me where I can find information on how to properly use this feature? I've been tweaking for hours now and the custom function tends to sound like it's bending out of key.
Thanks in advance.
Can't really blame the Axe-FX for that, can we?The Axe doesn't seem so user friendly, at first glance.
No we can't. I found if you approach it like a computer, it is very user friendly and well laid out. I mostly use Axe Edit, but the control panel is well laid out and easy to navigate as well.Can't really blame the Axe-FX for that, can we?

for the boys are back in town, you can use the intel harmoniser. set the key to Ab if you're a half step down and set scale to custom. set the number of notes to 6 and make them C, D, E, F, G, A. the voices need to be set to +3 or -3 (depending which part you play).
this works for the main riff, but doesn't work for the solo section, because two different harmonies are used there.
for the solo section, you need to use the intel harmoniser set to mixolydian. voice 1 = -3 and voice 2 = -4. you play the top line (that starts on E) and use -3 for the first two notes and -4 for the next 3 notes and then back to -3. i use a cc pedal to change between the voices.
try C mixolydian +3 (if your first note is E)
even though there's a minor third in the second half of the solo (i think), it still sounds ok (the harmoniser in the axe is quite clever about how it deals with notes outside the scale). in fact i have an ambient patch with loads of harmony notes (and synth notes) where i usually deliberately play notes outside the scale to get some really nice and interesting oblique chords
This is great. How do I set up controller for touch sensitive on input gain? Struggling with this part of block.2 tickets..here you go. it's just mixolydian up a third
the original has root panned left and right, so i used the enhancer to split and i doubled the harmony for richness
