FW: Axon problems



Be aware that Trey is using the Axon with an 8 string Warr guitar
with a 34" scale length and a range of Bb-0 to D-4.

I personally would like to have access to all of the Global menu
options for individual presets in the Scratch or arrange mode.

jb,

yes, there is a bug in the axon that i'm hoping they can resolve for me 
(us,
actually). it has to do with the fact that it doesn't let you program 
in the
fact that you are using a different tuning from standard guitar tuning.
combined with the fact that there seems to be a limit on the scale 
length of
the guitar that it 'hears.' this stuff is easily upgradable because the 
unit
is software based.

the side effects are this:  when you do a fret split, it splits at a
different fret for every string, because it refers to stadard guitar 
tuning.
but on the 3rd string between the 14 and 18 frets there is a serious 
glitch.
other than that, it is fantastic. and yes, i was using the guitar mode. 
the
bass mode does not allow higher than bass pitches to be heard, so all 
the
strings stopp tracking around the 5 or 7th fret, depending on which 
string.

i got the model with the sounds in it, and am very happy. they're not 
amazing
sounds, but they are useful. especially since i am running them through 
the
GP-100 anyway. to have a half-rack midi-convertor AND a sound module in 
one
is great.

yo,
