That's a killer feature for me, hiding at the end of the README. I have a Fractal Audio FM3[0] at home, and the only way I edit my patches is using their editing software over a USB connection to the device. Adding the ability to program (and even control) my patches live over any wifi-enabled device is even cooler!

- obituary_latte 4y agoAlways hear about the Fractal Axe FXIII--seems like the gold standard in guitar FX. Didn't realize they had smaller, non-rack-mount form factor devices. Very interested in trying out the FM3 now that you brought it to my attention. Thanks!!
- tecleandor 4y agoThe Mod Dwarf (and its predecessors) also allows web control and it supports standard LV2 plugins :) https://mod.audio/dwarf/ https://mod.audio/dwarf/ https://wiki.mod.audio/wiki/LV2 https://wiki.mod.audio/wiki/LV2
- Blackthorn 4y agoThe first site is remarkably brief about its actual capabilities. Is there somewhere with more information about it?
- tecleandor 4y agoSimplifying a bit: It's a pedalboard with a Linux SBC inside where you can load LV2 plugins and chain and route them as you wish. It has a sleek web interface for management and some short of "pedal store". Like an advanced multieffects pedalboard. Originally the MOD devices where crowdfounded. There's a small introduction video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5USQ7BsZ054 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5USQ7BsZ054 And Modep (as @tcrenshaw wrote in another comment) this is a MOD emulator for Raspberry pi, just in case you want to play with it: https://blokas.io/modep/ https://blokas.io/modep/
- vondur 4y agoI think the hip new guitar effects/sim is the Quad Cortex from Neural DSP. I've seen Kiko from Megadeth uses it for his live shows.
- bjelkeman-again 4y agoI think the AxeFx has more virtual knobs, but the QC is easier to use, and has Kemper-like sound capture tech.

- ganoushoreilly 4y agoThe QC is my go to pedal these days. I have a Helix (rack) and a Kemper (rack). While there have been some hiccups on software it really is a solid little box.
- bjelkeman-again 4y agoYeah, I switched from HX Stomp to the first batch of QC. Very happy with the result.
- theflyinghorse 4y agoAxeFX is absolutely insane in amount of control it gives you over your tone. I would say far too much control. Probably the best tool for a tone tinkerer.
- mr_sturd 4y agoDon't go leaving it exposed if you connect it up to the venue's WiFi, if you're playing live. ;)
- worik 4y agoDon't run wifi and real-time software at the same time.

- zamnos 4y agoWhat wireless technology would you recommend instead then?
- worik 4y agonone, of course
- zamnos 4y agoLol ok. Meanwhile the rest of the industry is moving on. I mean, how do you even do an wired connection to a drone? A lot of times guitarists will perform on a stage and the clients wants aerial views without the cost of a crane. Do you just tell them you can't do it and have them go with a different company?
- pdntspa 4y agoWith special nonstandard proprietary wireless protocols is the answer you're looking for. The same shit wireless stage mics use. Or control over cellular data. I can guarantee you they aren't pairing them to a 802.11 router. Lol ok.
- bacon_waffle 4y agoI'm a little confused by this thread - it seems like you suggest that the drone should be controlled by the SBC in an effects pedal, that the guitarist is using to provide low-latency audio processing? As a techie and perpetual-intermediate musician, that seems a bit odd... But, incidentally, at my day job I'm working on an embedded Linux system where audio latency matters, and which may well wind up with a WiFi radio (where latency probably doesn't matter so much). So, I'd like to understand issues in this space.
- nightowl_games 4y agoSomebody should make a device that plugs into a fractal axe FX and hijacks the USB connection and exposes a web interface. Now that'd be cool!
- zamnos 4y agoThere are a bunch of USB over IP boxes you can buy, so it depends on the m what you're looking for, port-wise. That plus a wifi router gets you what you're looking for.
