Ring Modulator: supported by which Fractal Audio devices?

  • Axe-Fx II: yes.
  • AX8: yes.
  • FX8: yes.

X/Y switching

The Ring Modulator block doesn't support X/Y switching.

Ring Modulator as an Octaver effect

The Ring Modulator works great as an octaver, adding a low octave. Enable the TRACKING parameter, set FREQ at 500 Hz, and turn down HI CUT to 500 Hz or lower.

Ring Modulator as a Tremolo

You can configure the Ring Modulator to act as a tremolo, by turning down Frequency all the way.

Creating an "evil" Whammy effect

For a cool effect: attach a pedal to the FREQ parameter. This turns the Ring Modulator into an "evil" Whammy.
