Your Axe-Fx II, your stage, your control!

AxeFXIIControl brings your Fractal Audio Axe-Fx II, XL or XL+ onto your computer screen, so the features buried behind front-panel buttons and menu pages are a click away. It is built for two kinds of players: the home-studio guitarist who wants to find a preset, switch scenes or bypass a block without hunting through pages, and the stage performer who needs setlists, a big Stage Monitor and foot-pedal control they can rely on in the middle of a song. It adds what the Axe-Fx II never had (setlists with songs and sections, instant preset search and a scene matrix) and lists every front-panel function, numbered and searchable, with step-by-step button instructions and, wherever MIDI allows, a control that does it for you.

Complements Axe-Edit, never replaces it. AxeFXIIControl works alongside Fractal Audio's Axe-Edit; it is not a replacement. Keep using Axe-Edit to build and fine-tune your tones, and use AxeFXIIControl to find, organize and play them. One click hands the Axe-Fx II over to Axe-Edit, and AxeFXIIControl reconnects when Axe-Edit closes.
