... the boys can play :lol:
Partial band living room rehearsal tonight, 2 guitars and 1 bass, all going through the Axe FX into an FBT Verve 12MA monitor.
I soundchecked all 3 instruments and it will sound great 8)
Miss the Missus anyways though, she'll be back in 6 weeks!

Why do you hide the guitars under a bush?

Sorry, didn't prepare the picture so well, sun is so rare in Belgium, I wasn't fast enough to get it all tidy for the shot 8)

Thats untidy
I'd hate to see tidy.
Its just odd that the guitars under a bush, is all.
-
Clean the floor much? And the same comment as MDV about the untidiness.

He'd like us to think he's playing guitar, but I notice a Playstation controller within easy reach of the sofa. :D
I hope the session goes well! :)
-
Like the PSX controller :)

The plant looks like a Ficus Benjamina- good choice.

You know, without the wife the only woman I can play with is Lara Croft :o)
Yeah, now you guys mention it (referring to the posts above): I should get that carpet cleaned ... :(
-
that's tidy compared to my house. :lol: you can actually see carpet.
and according to my sister, belgium is far sunnier than northern ireland, so be glad you don't live here :lol:

hey hunter how does playing through a monitor compare to using the VHT and the bogner?

... from the title I was expecting drugs and porn. Particularly as it's Belgium...

3 instruments going through the Axe FX? Do they each get different amp/cabs etc aswell?

Yes, pretty much:
2 Guitars each with their own amps, cabs, overdrives, EQs, Reverbs, Delays
1 Bass with dedicated compressor, EQ, Drive, EQ
It worked well. I only would have wished for a second monitor so I could have panned the guitars a bit L/R, but was good enough.

Not a bush - that is the top of the guitar - still has branches coming out of the top of the neck
It is part of Gibson's greener guitar range
Tuning is only affected on windy days

What no dancing nurses in rubber uniforms?
Looks like a fun setup. My place has stuff lying around all over the place too. A dancing nurse on top of me Koch would be a nice touch though.

I was expecting copious amounts of Belgian White Beer, Mmmm!!! :D
Nice pad though, bet it's a nice room for cranking some riffage out.

Well, I was running EZ Drummer on logic on the living room HiFi. but indeed, there would have been one more input available to run that one through the Axe too, but maybe a bit much for one single speaker source.
-
erm hunter.... I thought the axe-fx only had 2 inputs?!!!

Nope, 4 (or 2 stereo if you want, but you can use the 4 separately). The stereo FX return has a level pot for in and out and can be used as ins.
You only have two input gain controls for the pairs though. So in our case, I had to adjust the gain for both guitars as a compromise.

Damn I must be able to write full symphonies if that is the case

ah so that's why there are 4 lines of blocks in the software editor!!! can you output the instruments separately as well?

Not sure if that's the reason for the 4 lines, it's probably more display/processor power reasons I presume. Bear in mind that many patches for 1 guitar can easily use 2,3 rows, for running multiple amps in parallel etc.
Axe has even more outs than ins because apart from the Out 1 and 2 (each in Stereo, so 4 outs), there is also the digital output.
-
you can only use 2 amps per patch right?

Yes, don't really think you'd need more. 95% of the time I am using one amp only.
