I don't see them listed in the manual and don't see them on the FM3. I've gotten used to using these on the AF3 and think they are very handy. Are there plans to add this feature to the FM3?
It is on our radar and has always been intended to be supported on the FM3. I don't have a precise timeline for this feature, however.
There’s already a wish thread for this.

And this thread has a great suggestion for FAS to better use the screen in a live setting.

The plan is to add this.
There are 2 pages (Global, Preset) each with 10 controls.I just looked at the Leon Todd video about the 'performance page' and, quite frankly, from what was being shown in the video (adding 8 quick access dials from various blocks) I'm underwhelmed by what is being touted.
.... The concept behind them is for quick and convenient adjustments when performing without needing to deep-dive for a particular control... Like you might do with an Amp's BMT knobs, or the Drive control on your OD pedal.
This all just seems like a separate wish to me. You could wish for this and for performance pages to appear on the FM3.Yeah.
It was rather obvious that's what was going on as soon as Leon 'placed' the first virtual control dial in the view.
I guess my 'go to' information during a performance is more than just easy access tweaking.
The lack of a displayed tempo number (rather than just the flashing light - or burning up an onboard switch/scribble strip for tap tempo just to display a number) and the 'which blocks are currently engaged?' as well as a larger screen font/customizable colors are things that bite me during live 'performances' more than quick access to adjustments.
Although quick access dials can be useful, I was underwhelmed the 'performance page' didn't include other visual and/or user customizable enhancements.
