    Almost Finished with U2

    I guess I was finished with U2 after the 2005 tour. It didn't help that getting tickets was becoming next to impossible, with GA tickets being sold out within minutes of the sale going online. And then appearing en masse on resale sites. I dug the New Line on the Horizon album, the 360 tour...

    Larry's best recorded live drum sound

    I'm a guitar player, so I'll say there's drums on U2 recordings? ;)

    I Found out THe Vertigo rig!!

    It's both weird and fun to read this old thread that apparently I was the source for this file when I can't even remember having done this, or that I even had it. Memory can be a weird thing. Especially mine.

    Adam interview in Geddy Lee’s Book Of Bass

    Well, he obviously fits the band. And I for one would never call him a joke. I've done my fair share of soundengineering and stagehanding at live shows and I know a Rule No. 2 bass player when I see one. Adam is not and seems to aim for being the solid dependable rock bottom of the band. Which...

    Pious plonker or just misunderstood: why we should all lay off Bono

    It all boils down to avoiding taxes. Bono grated on people before, but that was just him being very preachy because he maybe cared too much. I can understand that at least. But the tax avoidance firmly placed him from being obnoxiously preachy into not just the hypocrite camp, but firmly in...

    Edge's gear in the 80s (especially late 80s)

    He may not have liked the Claptons much after, but he obviously did like them a lot during Lovetown. And from what I hear on the bootlegs they sounded just fine.

    Adam interview in Geddy Lee’s Book Of Bass

    Hmm, Adam is obviously a famous bass player, courtesy of being part of a famous band, if not the most famous one still active. But a legend of bass........

    The Edge's new rig

    I haven't even heard or seen a single bootleg from the last JT tour. Nor heard the new album.

    A must read article: An Open Letter To U2: What Happened To Your Relevance?

    I think they've done as well as they've could. 99.99% of all successful bands burn themselves out within a decade. Everybody mentions the Beatles, but within a decade they split up, never to reunite again (for obvious reasons), I can't remember the last time the Rolling Stones were still...

    The Edge's new rig

    Maybe not now, but who knows what happens when AlGrenadine works his magic. He's a guy on the Fractal board who developed fracpad, an Axe editor for on android and apple tablets and phones, and fractool, an app that, among other things, lets you convert presets from different Axe and AX-8...

    The Edge's new rig

    Which is why on the Axe forum the trend seems to be 50% of the users going 'SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!', 25% going 'nice to have, but what I have works good enough', a few going 'dammit! Still not what I wanted!' and the remainder is kinda pissed off that it came after they recently scored a...

    The Edge's new rig

    Well, eliminating the gap has been one of the biggest demands and Fractal now says with the III its as close to zero as they can make it. There basically has to be a fade in/fade out or else you'll get a pop.

    The Edge's new rig

    Any captured IR should be able to be imported into any modeler worth its name, be it Helix, Kemper, Axe II or III. It's not dependent on the modeler itself. The exact effects chain of a preset however is dependent on the modeler itself. Thankfully there's a member on the fractal forum who has...

    The Edge's new rig

    Well, think about it, the processing power of all computers have increased dramatically since the days of MS-Dos or Win95. Are your computers and applications now running faster then back then? Of course not. Everything is still as slow as it used to be because the demands of a new OS and...

    Bad news for the Edge, Fractal is coming out with the Axe FX III! http://www.fractalaudio.com/iii/ More then twice as much DSP! :drool::drool::drool::drool: Ever wanted to own an Axe FX but couldn't afford one? Now will be the time as people will be selling their old ones to afford this new...
