Simplest Rackmount rig

Re: Simplest Rackmount rig

Eleven Rack and a power amp is a pretty inexpensive, and sounds good.

A friend of mine uses the Fractal AXE FX II, and frankly it is an amazing system. He uses it with one of the old Tubeworks MOSFET amps and a pair of 212 vertical cabs. I seriously thought about one but opted for the Mesa Mark V combo and cab, which I am very happy with.

One advantage to the Fractal is that they are constantly releasing updates, so the obsolescence and depreciation are slowed somewhat.

It can be a headache too though. Sometimes those updates change the sound of the amp models making the previous optimum user saved presets needing reconfig to sound right. With the amount of updates they used to release & the amount of deep settings available in that unit, it could develop into a psychotic obsession to need to change the fine details very often & much less time playing. Sure one doesnt have to go into deep editing but if the option is available which tone freak wouldn't.

With something like that, i would need to hire a sound engineer to get it set up for me. Lol
