call up a different version of a Mk V, and have everything simply stay the same, except for whatever is different between the 2 amps!

JFC please this! I hate that everything gets reset when all I'm doing is changing "Friedman BE100 V2" to "Friedman BE100 V3"

Yeah, DUH!!!

Even editing MIDI CC values? No. Because that is literally completely unavailable using the editor software.
Better to learn the unit itself for lots of things.

 

[KHAAAAAAANNNNNNN!!!!!!!!]

Possibly because I don't feel like dragging half my office behind me everywhere I want to play guitar?

"FM9 is all I need"....

It's hard to bring up the subject of visuals because people will shoot you down as being superficial and you'll be lectured with "it's only the sound that matters". But the visuals do matter. The tools you use should have a look that inspires you.

It's only the sound that matters.

There’s a quote from Sting who said if looking at your guitar doesn’t inspire you to play it, you have the wrong guitar.

Love Sting. But he is pompous as fuck. :)

Love Sting. But he is pompous as fuck. :)

His two pomposities that stand out in my head are:

1. "If you don't impress me in the first 5 seconds of your song I am moving on". That is not verbatim, but it is close and true to what he was saying. I say, I would never have listened to an entire Police or Sting album if I had that attitude.

2. "You have to write every day, work it like a muscle if you want it to get any better". Once again, not verbatim. Been there, done that, hate it. I want inspiration to dictate when I write. Doing it as he suggests turns it into nothing more than an exercise and he has zero proof that it is going to make anyone a better writer or produce better material. I don't want my music/writing to feel like work, I want it to be fun and that is where inspiration takes me!

I do love his work and he is talented!

Could be, but he's not wrong .

Well he’s a bass player. So doesn’t really count

Set to Ideal tone controls and they won't get reset.

The more time goes on, the happier I am I came of age as a guitarist before the digital world came to be. The “turn the knobs until it does what I want it to and move on” never really left me, the absolute last thing I think when using Fractal stuff, the editor or the AxeFX/FM9 is “I wish this did more stuff or did it differently”

Press and hold "Enter" to auto-route.

Is there any drawback to this? I would use this trick as well, but still use the Authentic view in Axe-Edit.

Y’all make me want to put the axe 3 back up on the desk.

It is the desk

 

[Mongillo19]

It is the desk

I would always set my computer monitor on top

I've got my interface on top of it. I could probably fit the monitor, too

 

[Whizzinby]

Y’all cray. Mine is still sitting on a microfiber towel with the inspection and birth date tag on it.

I should probably rack it by now. Haha
