    The future of amp modeling and Fractal?

    Let me start by saying I'm a HUGE Fractal fan and have no intention of abandoning my Fractal devices (AXE-FXIII, FM3, AX8....and yes I still use all 3). Back when I finally embraced modeling, Fractal and Kemper were the only solutions that sounded convincing. These days it seems every one and...

    I’m not looking for a sound. I’m looking for the sound. Landed on Fractal Audio, because their product sounds, feels, and plays closest to the actual amp it is modeling - far enough above their competition to be notable. Plus, when I bought into Fractal Audio, I did not anticipate ongoing...

    Start with Section 4 in the manual. The FM9 is very flexible and can be used in 4CM, or can treat the amp as only a power-amp. Because you're relying on the speakers in that unit you most likely won't want Speaker modeling. Try with and without power-amp modeling; The Fender's power-amp...

    AXE 3 as a plugin - best thing for the environment

    Great point. With the Axe hardware the superb signal path is fixed from input to output. (Edit: to clarify, the internal path itself is not fixed, but the sound quality is maintained throughout the signal path.) Fractal's legendary sound quality would be compromised by third party audio...

    Fender Tone Master Pro....

    It is now fairly obvious that new modelers are not going after Fractal units (if they are) based on Fractals user interface. From a certain point of view that is Fractals Achilles heel. But at the same time, the in depth parameters can give you better results if studied and experimented with...

    5150 Presence Knob

    At the same time, if the control does nothing for most of its travel, and was even replaced by a different solution by the company who made the real amp, can it be said that it was a deliberate choice rather than just a mistake? It's not even a "happy accident" where the wrong components...

    There are a number of respected options here on the Fractal Forum. First, the factory presets are very good. If you take a look at them you will see many techniques that you can use in your own presets. A lot of effort has been put into them. Many Fractal adoptees find a lot of information and...

    Three weeks in w/ FM3 Mk II Turbo

    Hello all, relatively new to the Fractal world here; figured I'd share my story. So after over thirty years of being as religiously analog as one can get with my live rig, I've finally conceded and actually physically put my amp and pedals away into storage, which for me was a tall order. A...

    What's coming next?

    Aside from continued improvement and expansion in the firmware and software, a number of things wouldn't surprise me: Fractal FRFR cabinets. Axe-FX IV with the option for an on-board power amp. Introduction of Bluetooth functionality with mobile app storage/backup/editing capabilities, and/or...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 24.00 Public Beta #2

    I think I had this in the back of my mind: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/axe-fx-iii-16-00-beta-9-cygnus-firmware-public-beta-6.171176/#post-2062420 Either way, it sounds good. The Rev F tends to have a little more midrange character than the Rev G. Bumping up the Variac parameter a...
