    TM Fractal Updates ..

    I added the line back because I like it better with the line. You guys are on a witch-hunt lately.

    TM Fractal Updates ..

    We are not supplying refurbished units to ANYONE. We made a slight change to the silkscreen during the production run.

    Eruption Preset for AxeFX 2...VIDEO

    I think on the original the dive at the end was actually done with a delay by turning up the delay time slowly. I wish I had some time to build a preset to demonstrate how to do this. Maybe I can get Matt to do one.

    Why LDR's instead of normal resistors??

    LDRs (photocells) are used for switching. They have a negative coefficient wrt to incident light. The LDRs used in amps are co-packaged with an LED. When the LED is on the LDR will pass signal and vice-versa. LDRs are popular because they are fairly silent when switching, last long and can...

    TM Axe-II Waitlist Update

    Not that this will do any good... We expect to ship 16 units to TM by the end of the week. We don't accept deposits from anyone. That has always been, and will always be, the case. We don't charge credit cards until product is shipped and all our dealers have terms. TM and G66 are very...

    Fractal Audio Axe-fx +, -, ? and now Kemper KPA has arrived.

    I have not handled the pressure that well really. I have developed a pretty nasty ulcer. I just hope I don't need surgery.

    Fractal Audio Axe-fx +, -, ? and now Kemper KPA has arrived.

    Yeah, I messed up. It wasn't what I intended. There's nothing I can do about it now. Everyone is pissed at me and hates me. All I can do is say I'm sorry that my remarks were misinterpreted. Sorry.

    What's with the Fractal countdown?

    Why all the hostility towards me? I didn't even reply or comment on your posts. I'm puzzled.

    Zener values for Arrendondo Mod

    Anyone know what the voltage of the zener diodes used in the Arrendondo mod is?

    2nd Mini-amp fest with Axe-fx as the only "non-amp" in sight

    I'm skeptical of that 1000W rating on the power amp. That's probably into two ohms. I'm guessing you are running into 8 ohms so you're probably only getting a couple hundred watts which won't be as loud as a 100W tube amp.

    Brief Pod HD 500 Review

    It doesn't have 10x the power. It uses the same DSP as the X3.

    5150 mods... revealed w/ pictures

    Okay, here goes.... The lowpass response is entirely due to negative feedback. The negative feedback only happens at higher frequencies which reduces the gain at those frequencies (via A/(1 + AB)). In the case of a triode the output impedance actually increases because it is a current source...

    I was going to reply in detail but you really need to study some basic electronics before you go posting stuff like this. Just about everything you wrote is incorrect.

    5150 mods... revealed w/ pictures

    If the cap is connected from plate to grid it is "local negative feedback" and creates a lowpass filter. The plate voltage is out of phase with the grid and is fed back to the grid thereby canceling the grid at high frequencies. It's similar to putting a cap across the plate resistor except...

    Are you sure the cap should be between 7 and 8? 10pF would have a negligible effect between grid and cathode as the tube's Miller capacitance will be far greater than that. Between 6 & 7 makes sense as that will give a little high-frequency feedback thereby rolling off the highs. And, for the...

    Wow, Axe-Fx Ultra for sale at $1,475....

    I feel like an outcast at a community that I used to be a part of. Hate coming here now. The jokes have even gotten personal which is sad.

    Played some cool amps today in LI.

    Dave, Have you tried a Marsha? If you liked those amps you mentioned I think you would love a Marsha.

    Fractal MFC-101 Foot Controller...yes yes yes.

    I remember his first name was Abe so you're probably right. None of us are very good players and he was really interested in the Axe-Fx so we gave him a t-shirt and told him to go nuts for the video.

    Now this is one big joke. Rolling Stones top 100 guitarists

    16 Johnny Ramone of the Ramones 70 Eddie Van Halen More proof that Rolling Stone is staffed by musical retards. What really cinched it for me though, was years ago they rated Rush as one of the all-time worst bands claiming that Neil Peart was probably the worst Rock drummer ever.
