    Great! Thanks mr_fender. I was hoping to avoid a lengthy review of the owner's Manual. :-)

    Content of the "FM9-(Date)-nnnnnn-system+gb+fc.syx" Backup File

    Hi all. I'm expecting my second FM9 in a couple of weeks. Don't ask what happened to the first one - I should be shot! :-) Luckily I had a full backup of the first unit. It is clear what is in most of the backup files, but does anyone know the details of the system backup file? Is there a list...

    Settings transferable from 4.01 to 6.02

    Thanks for dropping in Greg and Joker. By settings I was thinking the ones for the external 'stand-in' pedals, but also, and more importantly, Layout and View settings including the 'Layout Links', which take a bit of effort to get my head around and then set them up. Sounds like I should be...

    Settings transferable from 4.01 to 6.02

    Hi all. I am thinking about getting another FM3 - my previous one being sold to finance an FM9 upgrade. It took me quite a while to get it to work with an FC6, external pedals and midi the way I like it. The last backup of the FM3's settings was when it had v4.01 firmware installed. I expect the...

    External Switches

    Yes, I had a close look at the Audiofront after seeing you used it unixguy, but went with the baby as my expression needs are much simpler than yours (way simpler! :) ) and I only have 240V and 5V USB power to the board. That said, I have recently got my hands on a cable with a 5V usb to 9V...

    External Switches

    It is a shame the FM9 doesn't have the same pedal functionality as the FM3 pedal inputs. I have worked around this freeing up an input by running my expression pedal into one of the cute little Disaster Area Midi-Babys. Works well.

    External Switches

    I do this with a TRS to 2 x TS cable and it works fine. I am using normally closed momentary switches and this Rockboard cable: https://www.mannys.com.au/rockboard-flat-y-splitter-cable?gclid=CjwKCAiAmJGgBhAZEiwA1JZolmdUndPH4eUQOX5ib9JlQNAcmUsLZQF0ETNCrUw3br-kaPCRAxxYWxoCqx4QAvD_BwE

    Midi Controller External Modifier. Aaaggh I hate Midi!

    Thanks mr_fender, Joe Bfstplk, and elvis. That has sorted it for me. Much appreciated. For any midi-phobes out there like me, this is what works (although it appears from above that less extreme values will also work:

    Midi Controller External Modifier. Aaaggh I hate Midi!

    Hi all. I have my expression pedal plugged into the single switch Disaster Area Midi-Baby. Expression message values 0-127 are set to be transmitted from the MB on Midi Controller 10 to the FM9. A single cc message value: 5, is sent on Controller 5 when the single switch is pressed. Controllers...

    Do you still need 4x12 cabinets onstage??- Rosanna (TOTO) final guitar solo

    Props for your young fella Marco on the recording, but you should never be recorded on a phone! Your tone, and playing, is too damn good! 44.1kHz or better! :-)

    How to handle wah. Use expression pedal or separate wah pedal?

    Odd man out here. I use a single Mission SP1-R which has the additional output TRS jack for a switch under the toe of the pedal you mention. I use it for Wah & Vol, and any other expression related effect in my setup. I have used the switch output to switch between the two effects. However, I...

    Disaster Area Midi Baby 3 - Toggle scenes?

    Haha! It could never work out AlexMania. It's me, not you :D Oh, I agree. The Morningstar MC6 and an MC3 were my go to controllers with my FM3's until I could afford an FC6. I really only resurrected this thread in case anyone came away with a negative view of Disaster Area support and...
