PA Speakers or FRFR ?

I’m not sure what you’re referring to by “full-range guitar speaker” here, or what the dispersion angles actually are on them. Narrow dispersion is most problematic at higher frequencies, and designers use horns to both improve efficiency and control the dispersion, but it is also affected by...

PA Speakers or FRFR ?

Virtually all PA speakers and “FRFR speakers” are designed to be full range (well, between about 60Hz and 12kHz, which is fine for guitar). In essence, PA speakers really are the original FRFR speakers. It is not my understanding that most designers build an EQ curve into their designs...

Bug? Block bypass/engage not showing on layout when triggered by CS

Running 7.0 Beta firmware. I just tried to reproduce the bug that I am certain I wasn't imagining yesterday, but today things are working as expected. I even tried putting the preset into edit mode in FM9 Edit, but it still works as I would expect. Now I wish I'd taken a video to prove to myself...

Wish Informative status on main display

I'd love to see some alternatives to providing something on the main display besides the preset and scenes plus the micro-tuner. Something that helps me as a user know what the status is of the preset I am on. Allowing the Layout grid to be shown at all times, even after a preset change, but...

Bug? Block bypass/engage not showing on layout when triggered by CS

I ran into this one while trying to create some ways to avoid the "this thing is triggered, but you don't know it" issue I have with the FM9 display when using it live. For example, I have several presets where a Control Switch triggers a couple of different blocks. I had hoped that maybe just...

Electro-Voice PXM-12MP on its side?

Yes, you can put it on its side, or tilt it a little, or put it on a pole. Dispersion is affected by nearby surfaces as with any speaker, as is the bass response. You may find the pre-set settings (Monitor 1, Monitor 2, etc.) help in those different situations. The one thing I wish it was easier...

Sennheiser HD600 vs Beyerdynamic DT880 Pros for creating presets

Having tried Audeze, Ollo, Sennheisers, Shures, AKGs, Grados, and a few others, many of which included frequency response charts, I reached the conclusion that this still comes down to a personal choice. I don’t know if it is fit against your head, or how your ear canal (mine are definitely...

Way to trigger 2 FX with one button?

Yup, I already use scenes quite a bit. It's the second half of what you're suggesting that I'm trying to do, but I can't figure out how to assign a control switch to a physical switch in a way that does anything. E.g. I can put in the PP#1 slot that I want it to control Control Switch 1, but...

Way to trigger 2 FX with one button?

Hi, all, I'm new to the FM9, but used to doing this with an RJM Mastermind on an AxeFX. I'd like to be able to trigger both Drive 1 and the Filter 1 block at the same time, so that if I hit the FM9 button that turns on Drive 1, Filter 1 is no longer bypassed. But I'm having a hard time figuring...

Fender FR-12 preamp mod : The Hissterectomy

Why would that be? I’d expect FAS to make the output volume linear in all the common aspects right up to the point of clipping?

Wish inc./dec. Setlist and Songs via Midi

Adding my +1 to this request: it would be really handy to be able to, for example, integrate with Bandhelper using a wireless MIDI receiver and call up a song on Bandhelper, having it trigger the right song in the set.
