It's not a question of being able to load it, but thanks for the info. I have it loaded - my question was around this specific line in the mini manual:
- Ensure that FC-6/FC-12 Compatibility Mode is set to “OFF”
I can't find that setting in the FM3
Since the setting you're asking about is specific to the FC6 I don't think it's necessary to adjust it. To test this, I connected my FC12 to my FM3, reset it to the OMG-15 layouts, and then fiddled with the FC-6/FC-12 compatibility setting, and nothing changed on the FC12. I restarted the FM3, with no change.
It makes sense that this wouldn't affect the FC12 layouts because that unit has as many switches as two FC6. I say don't worry about the setting and enjoy using the FC12 and OMG-15 layout.
One modification I recommend to the OMG layouts is in layout 1 (Presets). Add a Layout Link for each TAP function on each switch that points to Layout 2 (Scenes) on the FC12. By doing this, when you select a preset the FC12 will automatically switch to the associated scenes. I modified my custom OMG-based layouts with that and find they're a bit nicer to use because it's like they're anticipating my next move.
For instance, this is how I'd set up the layout link for Switch 1…
When I step on switch 1, the FC12 jumped to show the scenes for that preset. Repeat that for each of the "preset" selection switches 1-5 and 7-11 in Layout 1.
But wait! There's more!
There's a second irksome detail that bothered me after using the first modification. Switching to the Preset layout doesn't update the FM3's built-in switches to reflect that now Layout 2 (Scenes) is displayed. The FM3 doesn't auto-sense that state change, but we can tell it to update which layout is displayed on the built-in switches.
When modifying the layout links, we can also add an entry for the FM3's displayed layout, pointing to Layout 8 (OMG15) but View 2, which is the scenes view…
At this point, the front panel of the FM3 will update so the Presets button is dim and the Scenes button is at full brightness. If you want to change presets, step on the Presets switch on the FM3.
These steps should work fine for the OMG9 layout too, but I haven't tried that yet. I'll fool around with it and see what happens later.
Here's the all-layouts file for the modified OMG15 with my changes; I'm calling it OMG15+. To load it click the down triangle next to
