quark said:Axe-Mode Optimzied for Reactor?:
Near the bottom of the Fractal Audio AxeFx page( http://www.fractalaudio.com/products-fa-axefx.html ) there is the following statement,
"The Axe-Fx also has a mode optimized for use with Atomic Amplifiers’ Reactor Series amps."
Does anyone know what this mode is and have they had a chance to check it out with their new Reactors?
Tone Merchants said:Also another little experiment I spent some time on, was comparing the volume, tone and noise when I switched to XLR cables. My tests revealed that to my ears, the XLR cables were noticeably louder and slightly clearer. i didn't notice any difference in eq response. Im going to stick with the XLRs from now on.

Just plain XLRs! male one end, female the other. The male end has the stick things and the female has the holes. The male end is where something comes out and the female is where something goes in. That's the biblical way. And I mean that seriously.udufru said:Hi all,
Just purchased my Axe-fx and an atomic to G66.
I see that you speak about xlr cables. will it be better with it ?
I thought use a jack but if it is better with xlr. Do I have to buy a male/male ?
Thanks for your help

Fortunately the DIN designers (who thought up XLR) adhered to the biblical design filosophy, that's why mixing desks inputs are all female and outputs are all male. Same goes for microphones (outputs, male), and amplifiers (inputs, male) Anyone manufacturer not doing it that way is out of the norm.

POB said:I'm very interested to know how FRFR the Atomic is. What does it sound like with typical reference signal, say from a CD player, anyone tried this yet? Are the "3D qualities" everyone is raving about due to pure signal path quality, tubes or is there some artificial coloration being introduced?
