Also grabed the MXR Dyna Comp, killer pedal if used the correct way. I will be starting my rack soon, going to buy one of the Olaf Panther pre kits and mate it with a boogie pa. I bought that producer desk with the duel 20 space racks under it, sweet work station for $400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Marshalls and the Peacemaker it acts like a gain boost, with the Fender, it's David Gilmour Tone, when used with a strat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The system I am running is Custom designed to do exactly what I need. I know skrydstrup has similar stuff but, IF something were to go wrong with my gear, I'd have to send it back to Europe, NO Thanks. Currently I am utilizing 22 Control Functions NOT including program changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Code-001 Posted September 16, 2006 Members Share Posted September 16, 2006 Yeah, Axess is in Canada too so it's a little far in case you'd have an issue. I dislike Skrydstrup personally, mainly because of their insane prices for such an inferior item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dislike Skrydstrup personally, mainly because of their insane prices for such an inferior item. Looks cool. Song mode isn't really something I'd utilize though, and CAE has been around a long time, so I figured, when setting out on this adventure, that If I want the tones and control my heros have, i need to actually use what they use. Lukather, Van Halen, Holdsworth, Landau, Huff, Neil Schon etc... They are all CAE customers, so I am too. I like that there are finally other companies popping up that are starting to and have been doing what CAE pioneered, but I'd rather have a Ferrari than a kit car.

(Poor analogy, but the sentiment is there) Bro, Axess has been around for quite awhile.

It's the only MIDI controller that can do that. Anyway, you need to post pics of your insane rig once you get it, as well as post clips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Zachman Posted September 16, 2006 Author Members Share Posted September 16, 2006 Originally posted by Code-001 Could that be a hint of what's-to-come? Well, I've thought about it and really would probably go with a Two Rock Kustom, Egnater M100 (Bassman module, Vox AC30, and SL2). The CAE amps sound good but with the amps and switching I already have, it'd be almost redundant as the tones are so similar to the amps I already have. Unless the guys wanted to speak about some sort of endorsement, with a "nice" price break. I look at it like this: I have core tones/sounds that I need to have for session work then I have "my" sounds that I use for my preferences. These tones are basically a Hendrix/SRV type of tone, EVH/Nuno/Angus/Gibbons, Satch/Sykes/Lukather/Schon, Holdsworth/Landau/Gilmour/Eric Johnson Cleans, Robben Ford Crunch/Lead. "My tone is based around these core tones (Marshall/Fender/Boogie/Dumble/Vox AC30), then I season to taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
