    In Praise of the Virtual Capo ***FW 5.02b1***

    IMHO Fractal's is MUCH Better than the Drop (which I'm forced to use a lot now because I currently don't have any FAS products). The OC is a "little" bit cleaner, but the other FX essentially suck in comparison to Fractal at this point so it's not even fair (speaking in guitarist terms, sorry...

    Dual external switch with LEDS?

    I'm going to try another Mosky dual and just pay more attention :)

    Dual external switch with LEDS?

    I'm getting another FM3 mkII turbo. This time primary usage is going to be MIDI control of my Suhr PT15-IR, FM3 in FX loop OR in front of the amp. I'll use a Metro 20 with EV2, FM3, a dual switch and a ThorpyFX Peacekeeper as a "get out of jail free, safety drive, boost, more ME" in front of...

    How Many People Are Using A Virtual Capo in "Real" Applications

    I'm using it regularly on every gig (~6x or more a month). There are artifacts, but head to head vs. my Digitech Drop it blows the Drop away (IMHO). Band backline, FOH, IEMS, gig volumes the Drop can work even with clean tones which are required for me but the VC is MUCH better. I even use it...

    Just bought some EV PXM-12MP’s

    Here's my quick review. I need more time with mine and probably need more volume pumping into the thing, but already very close. Heads and tails better than any other FRFR I've tried over the years, even prefer it largely to the Atomic CLR I've had many times before (part of my comment at the...

    Dyna Cab issues?

    I got my FM9 (had the FM3 many times and even a first rev FM9) and built my preset and thought it sounded great. I didn't know how to setup dyncab, figured it out and my mind is blown... I mean, it literally sounds exactly how I experience playing through a regular cab. And I can compare...

    Just bought some EV PXM-12MP’s

    This is how I think I will use mine. It is meant to completely replace my amp rig.

    Pitch - Virtual Capo Sound

    I play in a modern country band and have to bounce from E to Eb to F. Having multiple guitars is simply not a sufficient answer. I want to bring LESS and I need backup at arms reach. For my traditional board I've been using Digitech Drop for Eb ($200 to cover like 4-5 songs) and a Capo (G7th...

    FM9 with EV2 on Pedaltrain Metro 24?

    Anyone using a Metro 24 with FM9 + EV2? I bought a Metro 20 for use with FM3 + Boss FS7 + EV2, but my name was called for FM9 so I am changing up my plans :) I do prefer to have the FM9 off the ground a bit and would love to have the EV2 permanently cabled as well. Would love to be able to fit...

    Drive blocks for dirt? Amp block? Both?

    Right now I mimic my real amp setup and use a Drive block with Blues OD for broken tones on Channel A and the Suhr Riot on Channel B for strong rock tones. The Amp is a clean Bandmaster, this is running into solid state power + cab and also FRFR. Compares favorably against my Dr. Z MAZ 18mkII...

    Tired of band discussions about my git sound

    Add to what Yek said, try and cleaner Marshall base tone and don't be afraid to get most of your gain from some of the wonderful drives. I'm doing ALL of my testing through power amp + cabs (BAM200 small solid state power, works great!) and a 1x12 with Alnico Cream or Marshall 4x10 and getting...

    In Praise of the Virtual Capo ***FW 5.02b1***

    Yes! A number of modern country tunes we are playing they tune to F on the record. I bought a G7th Capo specifically for this and it's very nice, but what's nicer is being able to step on a button, keep my guitars -- all of them -- in E standard and most importantly, play the licks and solos in...

    Ibanez Mostortion and Nobels ODR-1 [implemented]

    Any word on this? I'm trying to cop the tones from my Browne Protein. The Blue side is handled very closely using the Blues OD model, but having trouble getting anything resembling the Green side which is Nobels but with much better tonal control. The Protein in FRONT of the FM3 sounds amazing.

    In Praise of the Virtual Capo ***FW 5.02b1***

    Ok FM3 arrived and so did the Digitech Drop. I have to say, it's extremely close between just the FM3 with virtual capo for Eb (running 5.01b) and the Drop. The Drop may have the slightest edge, but certainly not a reason to have a drop integrated with FM3. And the FM3 virtual capo set to F...
