Axe-Fx Hooked Up to a Car

AustinW90 · 12-01-2011, 11:29 AM

Just park your amp in the garage for band practice.

ShadowFactoryX · 12-01-2011, 03:52 PM

lmao i've always wanted to do this.
hilarious

ExousRulez · 12-01-2011, 04:25 PM

How exactly did this work? Where did you plug in the axe fx etc?

Mordecai · 12-01-2011, 04:30 PM

i have a friend who has done this with an auto tune rack before, shits hilarious.

nojyeloot · 12-01-2011, 04:37 PM

Hahah that rules. I did this with a Jackson JS-1 with a Metalzone back in the day

Your vibrato is excellent btw.

I plugged my iphone in once and used the t-pain app to order McDonalds with a few friends

My car has an Aux in with a phono socket, I could use that.

lolz will occur.

mikemueller2112 · 12-01-2011, 10:04 PM

That is the tits.

LeviathanKiller · 12-02-2011, 12:53 AM

I've done this so many times with modelers and a 1x10 amp lol

Alimination · 12-02-2011, 01:36 AM

haha awesome, had a great laugh haha

AK DRAGON · 12-02-2011, 02:40 AM

I doubt your AXE FX is gonna be covered under your auto policy if it's stolen

Loomer · 12-02-2011, 04:02 AM

Ford Focus...

Will it djent?

Why yes, it will!

Rook · 12-02-2011, 05:34 AM

How do you power it though...

I'm taking my Alpine head out (doesn't support Aux

) and trying this out if I can get power in my car.

Goatchrist · 12-02-2011, 05:45 AM

Now I need a car that i can make the djentz?

What kind of car stereo has a friggin phono input?

JPhoenix19 · 12-02-2011, 07:38 AM

Just don't djent and drive.

AustinW90 · 12-02-2011, 08:48 AM

There are probably much better ways to do it, but I just ran a 1/4 in. cable out of the Axe-Fx into the aux in on my friends stereo. You'll probably need an 1/8 in. adapter. You can also run it through a tape cassette adapter with a 1/4 in. adapter.

To power it I just used one of those wall socket adapters that plug into your cigarette lighter spot. If you're using something as nice as an Axe-Fx I would make sure to have a power conditioner between the car power and the Axe-Fx, because I got way over 120 volts.

Tones · 12-02-2011, 08:57 AM

Haahah I did this with a metalzone and tubescreamer. Only it sounded like ass.

chimpinatux · 12-02-2011, 09:04 AM

Sounds like a real timesaver, it takes me 10 mins to unload my gear from the car and set it up

Floppystrings · 12-02-2011, 09:37 AM

Now you need to bolt a stack together, get some bike wheels, a go cart engine, some kind of steering mechanism.

Do a wheelie right on to stage and jump off while playing an emotional solo.

synrgy · 12-02-2011, 10:11 AM

I've totally done this with my laptop and NI Guitar Rig.

I don't know why I never thought about this, but I could practice guitar during my lunch breaks in my car.

th3m1ke · 12-02-2011, 10:41 AM

Hopefully you have a top of the line power conditioner becasue I would not trust the average Furman with that much juice.

Who knows though, maybe Cliff will cover your fried AxeFX under warranty because it was powered by a car battery

Rook · 12-02-2011, 10:59 AM

Axe FX is rated up to 250V

I hope to hear lots of palms hitting faces.

Stealthdjentstic · 12-02-2011, 11:19 AM

Holy .... learn a bunch of 80's shit and jam along to backing tracks in public really loud. Dance around a ton too.
