Well, I finally did it after many false starts and pressed the "buy now" button.

I'm a whore. Now, I feel so....dirty, cheated, cheap, used :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:

Will see how it goes.

You're gonna punt that thing through two camel's humps and it will land in the desert.

When you get it, do me a favor...have one of your favorite amps right next to it ready to go. Dial in a tone you dig in the Axe and note how long it took. Then plug in to your amp. Done.

That is a distinct possibility too! I am fully prepared for defeat and failure :D

I've yet to turn to the darkside... although I've come close several times. :D

I just know that your as much a "technophobe" as I am.. :lol: :LOL:
 
The key to FRFR or FOH setup is IR's. If Steve can get a handle on the cab block he's gonna pull some amazing stuff out of this thing. That's the final frontier there for Fractal.

What's that? :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:

Nah, I am going to try and be seasoned up before it gets here. Mark Day is schooling me on the side here :thumbsup:

I really don't care for the wild FX, never did with amps and don't intend to with the Axe. I just want it smoking through the FOH and quieten the stage clutter and ambient crud. I am damn sure not on a mission to prove "is it the Axe FX or the real thing". Not really that anal about it. Just a few models that appeal to me and change seamlessly without much stomping. That's what I am after. The bonus will be not to haul around and set up a bunch of stuff.

:D

Also check this guys stuff, pretty much a master of this shit:

http://axefremen.blogspot.com/2012/09/a ... ation.html

Download his banks and take a peek. Way beyond any stuff I've seen. Check his vids as well.

So you can download the settings from other users like Kemper profiles?

I'm a tube amp guy to this is new turf.


YES!! I don't know about the Kemper, never had one, however the Axe will allow you to try ANY patch that is made and download it directly.

I agree about the link above, check it out. He has gotten REALLY close on some tones that might just blow your skirt up a bit.

Let the games begin :lol: :LOL:

Yup. There should also be a preset exchange system implemented in the editor, I don't know if it's done yet.

Fremen's presets are usually very good, a good base for understanding the Axe. But personally I've never used someone else presets, there are way too much external criterias : the guitar, the amplifier, the speaker. Run a frfr designed preset in the return of your amp, well, it'll suck. It's easier to make your very own preset.
 
The options are tempting. Run a recto or Marshall for riffing, switch to a Mark series for a lead, a blackface for an intro.

If somebody great like Petrucci used one, now that would be a game changer...

Never heard anyone play one that I considered to have good or great tone. On the contrary, it just made the player's ability and sound deteriorate before my ears. Vai used it in a show I was at last week and his tone was meh. I understand for some who want to keep it simple and clutter free where tone is not king, are attached to them. Sad thing. Just make sure you do not get much sand inside it so you can sell it at full value. Let the :cry: begin.
