Thanks... I spent a while trying to figure out the right combination of pieces to allow for that.@unix-guy that is a real thing of beauty that is. Amazingly modular. Well done!
It's a specific type of gun part (small casing screws, a 2mm allen head that will take a washer) you'll find in upscale building and supply stores. Our local place is called IBS (Interstate Building Supply) that houses a large selection (several wall cases, actually) of various fasteners and washers, etc. I'll check my stock and see if I can find the documentation to be sure.
Yup. With thin appropriate sized washers to cover the perforations and hold the FM9 firmly to the board. Will check tomorrow and provide better info then.
There are many doing the same thing.I thought about this too. Do you feel like the threads will be able to hold up?
This rig is worthless. Needs a Mark IV imo. I think a IVb maybe. Go on…I’ll wait.Just got the FM9 and currently testing two rigs.
1. Matrix GT + FM9 to 4x12/2x12 and FOH (I still have to match levels and cabinet resonance)
2. Mesa Jp2c w/ 4x12 + FM9 on 4CM and Full MIDI control. (sounds awesssooome!)

I think so. I'll be looking into the possibility of the same bore and thread count, just a slightly lengthier shaft. The longer shaft may be the key element that will keep things secured better. The guns screws are built from hardened steel, so that'll give you an idea of their strength.I thought about this too. Do you feel like the threads will be able to hold up?
Be careful they are not too long. Wouldn't want to screw through any important circuit boards inside the box. I remember seeing mention of a maximum safe length for these in other threads....Despite the entendre, yes, the lengthier shaft will help keep things fastened in place more so than what's on my board now.
Nope, IIRC, the screws are for the 4 outside corners and are the 2 screws on the underside where the rubber feet normally attach, thru the case. The screws will just be an extra ⅛ or ³/₁₆ inch longer, I hope.Be careful they are not too long. Wouldn't want to screw through any important circuit boards inside the box. I remember seeing mention of a maximum safe length for these in other threads....
I checked with Fractal regarding the 16mm screws I used and was told that as long as I stuck to the 4 corners the it should be no issue.Be careful they are not too long. Wouldn't want to screw through any important circuit boards inside the box. I remember seeing mention of a maximum safe length for these in other threads....
Two input jacks of XLR and 1/4" serve for receiving signals from mic for my harmonica and acoustic guitar, making sounds warm and organic. An XLR output of V3 routes to HARP ATTACK( micro tube inside, overdrive pedal) before it hits L input of IN2 of FM9, while 1/4" output fed to R input.
Both input of IN3 receive stereo MP3 tracking from StageBro 2000( MP3 player )... By setting up rig in this fashion, you do not need any other gears on the live stage in a small venue... just a one - man band popular in far east countries such as Korea and Japan. This is the concept behind my rig. Thank you Mr. Chucma showing interest to my rig!
This thing is absolutely perfect, got it mounted directly to the Temple Duo this weekend. The punchouts matched up with the side-screws on the FM9 perfectly with no mods required.
Hey! Where did you get the custom foam? Sorry if you already answered this.Just received my FM9 a couple days ago. I am using Pelican 1535 AIR case with custom made foam. Got a little compartment under the FM9 for power cable and/ TRS cable. But no space for expression pedal, but it's not a biggie to me since I can put it in gig bag or the backline will always provide to me If I requested
I was using the same case for AX8 and FM3/FC6 setup before as well..They all fit perfectly too

It puts the lotion in the basket......A longer shaft is always beneficial.
...or it gets the hose again.It puts the lotion in the basket......
How did you mount it to the board? Did you use longer screws? If so which? Did you use the cables that come with the temple audio modules for the XLR?
Thanks so much!I did have to order longer screws and washers to make it work, I got these from Amazon here:
Screws
Washer set
The XLR to TRS cables that came with the XLR module were long enough to use, that was the only module that came w/cables from Temple Audio.
