The
Axe-Fx III is the latest in our line of the worlds most powerful
all-in-one processors for guitar, bass, and other instruments. This new
model offers our latest "CYGNUS" amp modeling technology, thousands of
UltraRes speaker cab simulations, and state-of-the-art effect
algorithms, all backed with more raw power and feature upgrades than any
Fractal Audio product before. Our vision was to take the Axe-Fx to a
whole new level: to create a totally redesigned platform that sounds
better, does more, and is easier to use. Equipped with four processors,
the Axe-Fx III contains more raw processing power than any guitar
product ever made, by far.
The hardware of the Axe-Fx III was
designed around a streamlined new workflow. The centerpiece is a
dazzling new high-contrast full-color display with 30x the resolution of
previous products. This display works alongside five new endless-rotary
push encoders. These push-knobs do different things on different pages,
with labels to show dynamic functions. The end result is a user
experience thats immediately more intuitive. The display also excels at
animation for meters, modifiers, and more.
Better sound quality
has been achieved through an audiophile-grade signal path. The
difference shines through in lower noise floor, pristine clarity, and
better USB audio performance than most dedicated audio interfaces.
Computer audio integration now includes a professional-quality
24-bit/48k 88 interface. Record multiple tracks of processed audio at
the same time, plus a DI. The re-amping workflow is improved with
independent monitoring of backing tracks and re-processed guitar tones
while you dial in a sound.Physically, the Axe-Fx III continues our
tradition of combining extraordinary design with manufacturing quality
rugged enough to withstand the rigors of life on the road. The unit is
housed in a steel enclosure with a one-piece anodized aluminum
faceplate/bezel featuring a glowing Axe-Fx III logo.
