    Still struggling with the Axe FX II

    I might actually have a 58 on the JCM800 I'll have to double check. I usually do cycle through all the Mic options in the Axe FX to see what sounds best to my ear, but that may be the case. Do you think the Brightness switch being on might also be the cause? And yeah I probably have to lower...

    Still struggling with the Axe FX II

    Well thanks, man! Glad you like it! Maybe I'm just crazy since everyone on this thread so far doesn't seem to think it's bad haha A couple friends said it sounded good too, there's just something my ear is hearing that I'm not fully satisfied with, but maybe I'm over obsessing about it. I'm...

    Here's another clip of the guitars in the full Mix using a backing track that's had the guitars removed.

    Yeah?? Doesn't seem too trebley or like screechy to your ears? Maybe I'm just going crazy having spent so much time trying to fine tune haha

    Oh true, eh!? This is how far my pickup is currently. Too high you think?

    Maybe I have tunnel hearing then xD I find it sounds really scratchy and screechy. If that makes any sense haha

    Still struggling with the Axe FX II

    So I posted a few weeks ago about struggling with getting a good recording tone out of the Axe FX II. I'm still struggling, but have made progress. I'll attach a video that has audio only of a cover I'm working on. It'll be my guitars only. There's 2 guitars. One panned 35 Left, one 35 Right...

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    I'm actually not sure, I'll have to check haha You may be right. I might have to export the presets I've made and do that! There's no way to post clips on here unless it's a video I guess, eh?

    Lyrics Question

    Everyone writes lyrics differently, it seems. For me it varies, but a typical song could go something like coming up with a guitar part or chord progression I'm feeling and at times I might just start singing random stuff over it and something might stick. A lot of the times the vibe of the...

    My son’s first riff

    Amazing!

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    Just tried those suggestions. Without Tube Screamer it feels dry. Tone is both still muddy and scratchy. There's no smoothness to the tone.

    These are my settings so far. My Drive, Amp, and Cab settings.

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    Thanks for that! I tried toying around with similar settings, but it didn't do much for me. Similar settings muddied it up more actually. I'm going crazy hahaha

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    Opps. Just realized I hadn't put a Mic haha The 412 isn't too bad! But it could still use a tad more clarity. Also, no idea why but my tone is way too hot. My gain is only around 4.5ish on the Amp.

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    I was going to hard reset, but I ended up just going into the Global Settings and resetting the Global EQ. He did have them all moved around. I reset it all to default. But I'm still having issues. I spent another hour this morning trying to tweak things and I just don't get it. I'm using the...

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    Yeah, I've heard a lot about FRFR speakers, but I've only recently learnt about them. They're full range flat response, so I wonder if you could get that out of Studio Monitors like the Yamaha HS series. Or if you need an actual floor monitor or what exactly. But right now no, I don't have...

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    Thanks for the vids, I'll check them out! Right now I found a decent tone running through a 5150 preset. Problem is, if presets were made on different firmwares, then it'll mess with the tone. Also the fact that someone making a preset is usually specific to their gear. Their guitar, pickups...
