Come on shotgunn, there's got to be more than that man. come on, thats nothing! haha. wowsers!
The axe-fx II will:
replace my amplitube 3 (yuk) for practice
support my voxad120vt w/V30s, maybe I'll replace it. gotta try it first.
My vox tonelab SE will go from sounding shit trough PA, downgraded to a midi-footcontroller-slave. (Muhaha! Oh how I am evil.)
Guess I can get rid of a zoom something-606 (worst thing ever made) (Maybe I'll THROW IT ON THE GROUND!!!)
I don't have that much gear ok!!? :razz
It's more about how you're using it and it's all in the fingers right? :roll
At least i'm getting there with the axe-fx 2. What more do you need right? Oh yeah, another one.. and another one.. and.. I'm done.
 
Rocktron Chameleon, Replifex, Intellifex (also no need for Patchmate & Midimate anymore), velocity 300 replaced by Fbt 12Mas

Lexicon PCM 80

Eventide H3000S

I use to have a 24 space rack full in the front and about six slots used in the rear, all full of gear.

Now I have a 12 sp rack with a 3 space drawer to put the MFC-101 in, so I'm down to 9 spaces of gear from about 30.

Have my Axe II since July - it has NOT replaced:

- Strymon El Capistan
- Hermida Audio Zendrive
- Okko Diablo Gain+

You sold a 2120 to get a GT-8? The 2120 was pretty decent little processor. I bought one back in '99 and had it for a few years. I have a similar gear selling story. I sold my D-two to get and M-2000 I always regretted that deal. The M-2000 was not suited well for preset changes.

Axe FX Standard-->Ultra--Axe FX 2

Gone

Marshall JMP1
Roland GT Pro

Keep

MB Mark V
Fender Vibrochamp
(Weber) Deluxe Reverb

Pedals I am not sure yet

Roland
 
What it is definitely replacing:

-TC Electronic G System and the myriad of connector cables, hum eliminators, input boosters, drive pedals, TRS cable snakes, etc. that I ultimately had to buy to make it sound the way I wanted

Haven't decided if it's replacing:

Mesa Mark V
Mini Amp Gizmo
 
mine's not going to replace anything...
I'm thinking about slotting it in with the VG-99..
both units have a great deal to offer.. so together I'd imagine I'd have a great deal of tonal scope available..
to be honest what I finally decide to do really depends upon how they react together from a control standpoint..
