FRACTAL AUDIO AXE-FX II

All-in-one preamp and effects processor

The Fractal Audio Axe-Fx II has earned kudos from the likes of Steve Vai and John Petrucci based on the staggering depth of the sounds it creates. Powered by dual Analog Devices TigerSHARC Digital Signal Processors, the Axe-Fx II is the most powerful processor of its kind, providing stellar amp, effect, cabinet and microphone modeling in addition to traditional signal processing. The free Axe-Edit software enables deep editing of real-world features like “Speaker Drive” and mic “Proximity,” making for the most dynamic models we’ve played. If you’re serious about guitar tone, check out the Axe-Fx II.
