You know what would be cool? This: if the AxeFx II could serve as a computing platform for third-party developers to offer processing modules. Possibly, folks like Strymon might offer a Big Sky module for the AF2 allowing it to be integrated and automated into patches as opposed to use as an outboard effect. Obviously there would have to be engineering changes to the AF2 (maybe for the AF3?) as well as licensing issues dealt with but, hey, wouldn't that be cool?
Thanks javajunkie!
One question. Where is the diffusor in the Axe?
Thanks again.
Multidelay
Okay,
So to get these patches I either used one or 2 diffusers with short delay times to simulate early reflections and input diffusion.
Then I went to a chorus with a sine waveform and an LFO phase of 90%. I used a mix of 100%, but 50% is good too.
Reverb any big reverb will do just adjust the time and color to taste. up the predelay to 120-200ms or so. Take the early level down all the way.
I turned off input diffusion, but having it there isn't bad.
turning up the mod depth can be cool too.
I'll post these to axechange a bit later

far more interesting on the Blue Sky are the Freeze and Hold functions. now that's something not (easily) doable with the Axe and so very cool.

there are three functions that I'd really like to see added to the Axe's Reverb...I was just thinking that this morning.
there are three functions that I'd really like to see added to the Axe's Reverb...
Reverse (been done since some of the first rack units)
Hold (where each new played note gets added to the held Reverb tail)
Freeze (where the entire Reverb signal freezes).

Could you do freeze by running a delay block in to a reverb block and using the repeat hold feature on the delay block with it's mix set to 100%?
yes you can, but I was more thinking along those lines that you don't have to use up half of the grid and available modifiers to get a "simple" effect which can be done in other units by simply pressing a buttonCould you do freeze by running a delay block in to a reverb block and using the repeat hold feature on the delay block with it's mix set to 100%?

For cases like this, where it takes multiple blocks to achieve the result, I wish it could be saved separate from the preset and dropped in as a block group, similar to the block library we have today.
yes, that idea came up before, back before the II came out. it's hard to imagine how that might be implemented. it's easy to work around though, with global amps, cabs, the block library and the ability to simply copy and paste blocks from one preset to another using axe edit.
