sounds good but the problem with these digital processors is they sound artificial and you loose dynamics of your playing, covers up you feel and hides your mistakes
Brilliant man :D epic :D got the exact tone. Shall check the settings. I am getting my Axe Fx Ultra soon :) Thanks for sharing this and keep up the fantastic work.
@topdog2328 It's basically a preamp with preamp, power amp and cabinet simulation and integrated effects. You need a separate power amp to make it loud or some kind of active monitors like I'm using.
@adarov If you knew anything about guitar you could clearly see he is actually playing the song, the volume level of the music is his personal preference.
@Supaboy000 But sir, it doesn't even look like he is faking. You can tell when the camera angle gets closer to his guitar and you can also tell by the sound of his guitar. The sound is not exactly the same as the original audio it sounds slightly different.
Doooode! NICE work! Love the tone, but even more than that, I REALLY love your inflection and articulation. You had to have spent some serious woodshed time to perfect this, but perfect it you did! Thanks for posting!
that was EXCELLENT. Axe FX is TERRIFYING. It's like having every head ever in one setup. It amazes me, yet somehow pisses me off. Fantastic performance!
u r fuckin awesome dude holy shit if u r playing axe fx i just baught the ultra @ i need help just started u tube account coolcoolant goning crazy w this fucking thing help
A friend of mine told me to get the Axe FX, especially for studio recording or re-amping. This gave me a pretty good idea of what It has in store soundwise. Thx dude, and great playing!
Please explain me one thing: I watched your A FOrtune In Lies video too and after this one I'm asking: WTF how can you re-create the Petrucci's exact sound??? You rock man, really amazing!!! KEEP ON ROCKIN'
I'm using the original pickups (Ibanez V7 and V8) of this guitar (Ibanez RG 2020 XTL, which I actually don't like that much (at least with my older preamps Marshall JMP-1 and Mesa Boogie Triaxis). With the Axe FX, I don't have as much playing experience, yet, so I'm not really able to compare it with my other guitars.
As you can read in the description of this video, I've used the Fractal Audio Axe FX Ultra directly recorded into my PC. I could hear myself through the active monitors (ESI nEar 08) - so not any of the marshalls you can see in the background ;)
Nice man, keep up the good work!

@Gyro911 No he doesnt. He has an Axe FX in his current B rig (not his main rig) but he is only using it for effects, everything else is all Mark V.
