I've had an Axe-FX II for 6 years now and have no real desire to "upgrade"...sounds great and does everything I need and WAY more!!

That Quad Chorus in the Ultra was beastly!

I know this content was uploaded sometime ago, but I still found it very informative and just the kind of presentation, I was looking for.
Thank you.

Remember when it first came out? People wanted that so bad for live performances.

Fun video!

Nice video Lucas, I have the AX8 and it keeps me wanting to play everyday for hours 👍🏻

[polpottopg]

Nice video man, exactly what I was after

[AlbrechtProductions]

Thank you for the summary of the Fractal Audio product line. Can you please make a detailed comparison of the Axe FX III vs. FM3? 🙏🏼

[OWSJDC]

Outstanding work thank you!!! This video has been very helpful for purchasing Fractal gear.

Near 8:10, it's said that the AX8 has only 1 input. That's wrong.
Look at the back : it has TWO inputs. 2nd input is the (stereo) FX return plugs. You can perfectly make 2 different signal chains for 2 different instruments.

Excellent video man! Thank you so much!

[gabedraper]

great information Lucas...!! just want to add that the FX8 does not work properly with amps mounting parallel loops, as the FX8 unit doesn't have kill dry or analog dry through. The FX8 will work well only with series loops amps.

[joeblackforever]

Exactly the video I need! Thanks a lot for all this info :)

Awesome video Lucas. You and Leon todd are the dudes. Well done 👍

[TheSason]

Thanks for your coverage from me from Ukraine!

I’ve been eyeballing Fractal units for a while now. I’m currently using a Line 6 POD HD Pro X into a Focusrite Scarlett Solo, to my studio monitors. I found an Axe FX Ultra for about $650. Very heavily considering it. Thoughts?

[markhoward]

I could listen to Lucas, all day, every day. He can read me the news and tell me bedtime stories. He should receive a salary or commission from fractal as he sold me on the FXIII! Not because it's the best of the best, but it is the product of over a decade's worth of research. Not a crowded market place, but musicians are a fussy bunch. Lucas makes the complex clear. Give that man a medal...PEACE!

Cool vid my dude. Also nice shirt 🤘periphery is my jams

[theiranxican]

Need some help here fellow rockers: I have been eyeing an axe fx standard at my local music store for $550. I currently own a Boss katana Artist amp (which is awesome) but want to go smaller-ish.
Question is, would it be foolish of me to trade in my katana artist for the standard axe fx as the standard is old technology?

Very torn here as I've always wanted to own a fractal unit...

Hey there, this was the perfect comparison video for fractal gear I hadn't even heard of and actually makes for easier choices for me when shopping for used gear. Thanks so much. Did you do a video on their humbuster cords and are they ultimately worth it?
Thanks again,
Paul Sanders

Great video. Thanks. What about sounds? If I take simple Marshall sound. Is there a huge difference between axe fx and axe fx2? I am wondering to get axe fx in 2022. Is it worth it? Just to mention I just need simple but solid sounds. I am not into many effects, running parallel amps at the same stuff etc….
