![]() This allows a loop to be automatically created once the loop time exceeds this value. If your rig uses only the PRE chain or only the POST chain, set LOOPER LOCATION accordingly.Īvailable in firmware 17 and later for the Axe-Fx III (and later in FM3 and FM9). This may also be due to PRE/POST settings. If it is set to GLOBAL, check the GLOBAL LOOPER LOCATION (in the SETUP: GLOBAL menu) to ensure that it is not set to NO LOOPER. If you can't hear the Looper, check the LOOPER LOCATION. The location can be set globally (Global menu) and can be overridden per preset. It can be disabled, which decreases CPU usage. It can be positioned in different locations. It's a global looper so it's always present, in every preset. ![]() The Looper in the FX8 has additional features. Looper Control Mode is accessed using a F-switch. Same as the one in the Axe-Fx III, with 120 seconds of looping time. Over five minutes of stereo recording with undo." FM3 The Looper provides more than 5 minutes of stereo looping time. There isn't really much audio processing required, it's mostly memory access." Hardware-specific notes Axe-Fx III If I were to make a dedicated looper I probably wouldn't use a DSP but something like an ARM with a lot of external address space. Therefore you're unlikely to ever find a multi-effect that has the loop time and features as a dedicated looper. Also, most loopers trade off bit-depth and sample rate for loop time. The DSP used in the Axe-Fx III is the most powerful commercial DSP available but it's still limited in it's memory address space. Furthermore the processors used in products like the Axe-Fx are limited in the amount of memory they can address. General-purpose guitar processors like the Axe-Fx don't need the amounts of memory that loopers require and adding that memory for a single effect would increase costs, probably considerably. "Loopers have unique hardware requirements, i.e. On the FX8, the Looper is a global feature, which position is customizable. To use the Looper controls on the FM3, FM9 or FC-6/FC-12, a preset must contain a Looper block. ![]() On the FM3, AX8 and Axe-Fx series, the Looper is a dedicated effect block, providing minutes of stereo or mono loop time. The Looper doesn't support X/Y switching or channels.
