Hey guys and gals, hope you can help me with something here please! Not sure if this is just my unit, but I've twice now had to reboot my Axe-Fx during a live performance.
What happens is really weird and I haven't quite figured out how to recreate it, what happens is I play a few songs and everything works perfectly, in both occasions I turn on the AFX tuner to mute my sounds once a song has finished; all good so far.
Then when I disengage the tuner a few minutes later then my AFX screen goes blank, and the MFC101 shows the preset number only without the preset name. This happens when I'm playing live (well seconds before I'm about to start the next song) so I don't have time to troubleshoot or test if the sound is working, so I quickly reboot the AFX and it works fine after it boots up again.
Now this has only happened twice in the last month or 2, so it's not regular. The first time was at least over a month ago, and I thought it was a once off so ignored it because I play live with it nearly every week and it never happened again until this morning. Luckily the reboot helps, but I'm not sure what the cause of this is and am hoping someone has some ideas?
My setup is Axe-FX XL with MFC101 (mark III), Mission EP-1 and Fractal EV-1 - so pretty simple. It's been like that for over a year, gets played every day (most days ) and been incredibly reliable. I'm on the latest FW for the MFC, and QFW2.02, but I doubt it's a firmware issue as it has happened on different versions. And I play direct into FOH.
Thanks in advance!
