FM3 General Discussion Thread

Hmmmm... The Fractal Audio Blocks guide states that FM3 loads a truncated version of UltraRes IRs (page 20, note 1). Is this true? That would be quite a disappointment to me.

Maybe it simply means you can only use 2 irs in the 4 channels
Unlike the 3 that can use 4 different ones on 4 different channels

Could I ask for this to be clarified? What does truncated mean here? I believe AX8 could load 160ms IR, can FM3 do the same?
 
What, don't you trust my manual?? That's it! I'm now officially giving you the silent treatment until this thing is done.

Oh... wait, it's ready to ship. Yeah, the first invites are going out TOMORROW! (I'd do it now but I need a little support at the sales desk and those folks go home at 5PM.)

So, that's excellent news, right? I'm going to re-open the FM3 forum now.

PS: Please disregard any previous statements by Greg G. A lot of things changed since his departure. Please refer to the owner's manual and feel free to ask any questions.

Awesome. @Admin M@ ...im assuming the people from the AX8 waitlist are up first?

As stated the manual shows the performance screen , which for the record was a great addition
Is that feature just Not at launchr coming soon in a future update ,
Or not going to be available on FM3

Thanks again
 
Awesome news, can't wait to get my FM3! I noticed in the general specs that the venting is on the side and bottom. Does this mean the rubber bumpers are needed for thermals? I was originally planning to take them off with my FC6 to get squeak out a bit more space. Board I'll be putting them on is solid.

Well, there are always hole saws...

And temple boards.
 
The manual makes it clear that the FM3 can't be MIDI-controlled over USB, but would it be possible to control it from a DAW using a USB-to-MIDI converter (such as MIDIsport 2x2) and the MIDI In port on the unit?
