The USB is Audio Class 2.0 compliant. On a Mac you don't need to install any drivers but you do need to install the firmware loader for the USB chip (it is a "soft" processor and downloads its code from the host on start-up). On a PC you also have to install the Audio Class 2.0 drivers. The driver supports ASIO, SRC, etc. etc.

You can use the USB just for remote control via Axe-Edit if you want. You don't have to use the audio features. [http://forum.fractalaudio.com/showthread.php?t=35997&p=490183&viewfull=1#post490183 Source]

==Can I set a modifier to min and max values==
 +
 
 +
In the Axe-Fx II there are MIN and MAX values. These are the actual parameter values. For example, if you want to change the delay time from 500 ms to 700 ms, you simply set MIN to 500 ms and MAX to 700 ms. So 0% corresponds to 500 ms and 100% corresponds to 700 ms. http://forum.fractalaudio.com/showthread.php?t=35997&p=490193&viewfull=1#post490193 Source]

THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

In time this page will contain questions and answers regarding the Fractal Audio Axe-Fx II. The content below is for editing purposes only at this time.

INTRODUCTION

GENERAL

What are the differences between 1st-generation (Standard, Ultra) and 2nd-generation (Axe-Fx II) units

Where are the units manufactured

All units are made in USA. Source

HARDWARE

What's the latency of the USB audio inteface

The "built-in" interface is limited only by the host computer. The USB is Audio Class 2.0 compliant. On a Mac you don't need to install any drivers but you do need to install the firmware loader for the USB chip (it is a "soft" processor and downloads its code from the host on start-up). On a PC you also have to install the Audio Class 2.0 drivers. The driver supports ASIO, SRC, etc. etc. You can use the USB just for remote control via Axe-Edit if you want. You don't have to use the audio features. Source

FIRMWARE, SYSTEM

AXE-EDIT, SOFTWARE

AMPLIFICATION, I/O CONNECTIONS

Can I use the digital input togehter with analog inputs and outputs

You can use the digital input with analog Output 1 (and simultaneously digital out). You can use Input 2 and Output 2 while using the digital input. Source

CREATING AND EDITING PRESETS

Can I import presets from my Standard or Ultra into the Axe-Fx II

No. Source

AMP BLOCK

Where are the Warmth and Thump parameters

These are removed from the Amp block in the Axe-Fx II. Source

CAB BLOCK

Where is the Drive parameter in the Cab block

This parameter has been removed from the Cab block in the Axe-Fx II. Instead, the Amp block has a Speaker Drive parameter. Source

OTHER EFFECTS

SPECIAL SOUNDS AND ROUTINGS

INTERNAL CONTROLLERS, MODIFIERS

Can I set a modifier to min and max values

In the Axe-Fx II there are MIN and MAX values. These are the actual parameter values. For example, if you want to change the delay time from 500 ms to 700 ms, you simply set MIN to 500 ms and MAX to 700 ms. So 0% corresponds to 500 ms and 100% corresponds to 700 ms. http://forum.fractalaudio.com/showthread.php?t=35997&p=490193&viewfull=1#post490193 Source]
