Crossover for Bass

I'm curious about this...in what way do you find the 4 x 12 grid limited (screenshot of one of your "loaded" presets)? I certainly hit cpu limitations (on the FM9T), but not layout limitations. Using 2 filters adds one block vs. the crossover. Don't get me wrong...a crossover block for the FM3...

Crossover for Bass

I'm using two Filter blocks on the FM9T rather than the crossover so save some cpu. The 3-way crossover block is more than I really need, but would love to see a simple mono 2 way crossover block with common choices of slope (12dB, 24dB, etc.), and variable crossover point from 40hz to 5kHz or...

Implemented Filter Block Envelope Filter -- additional tools requested

My 2 cents FWIW. With bass, using a split chain ( either via crossover block or hi-pass/lo-pass filters, x-over point +/-250Hz) and with the hi-pass path ONLY sent to the Envelope Filter (and Drives and other various effects), it's a whole different ballgame in terms of having less struggle...

Please release CAD files for mounting purposes

Yeah. I see nothing but a blank page, no holes or dimensions. FWIW, lots of easy & free ways to share various file types with public permission to view & download ( Google Drive, Dropbox, Guithub, etc.) accessible by shared link to the file folder.

Please release CAD files for mounting purposes

I guess my thinking is that if someone already has the means to use a CAD/CAM capable machine, then dwg & dxf is ubuiquitous, and easily converted to other file formats (STL, OBJ, et al) used in fabrication. I'm also assuming that the way to create an accurate PDF tech drawing would be using CAD...

Agreed. I can appreciate the desire to create a tech document for the broader FM9 community, though this seems like such a basic skill project as to not really warrant the clinical accuracy of a CAD file, unless there is mass production involved. JMHO. But hey, if someone wants to do the...

The PDF referenced in that thread is created based on CAD vector objects, but doesn't show the underside center line locations for the center feet and L/R end bottom mounting screws. That said, this PDF is of value and if using AutoCAD (full or LT version) you can do a full-scale import of the...

A truly incredible person with a remarkable life story. Unfortunate that some of his commentary tends to upset a lot of people. IMO he should be a household name and taught in every school and university in this country. Please do take the time. He provides great food for thought, agree or disagree.

New Bass Stuff Coming :)

Yes. Patience. Been there, done that, and granted that this has been the case, will always prefer FAS over the other products I've used or seen.

+1 In 2015, I sold my AxeFxII to my guitarist and he's been happily using it ever since. I use the FM9 Turbo and plan on getting whatever next gen Fractal pedal suits my needs, whenever they become available, and selling my current FM9T to that same guitarist. Though he's perfectly happy with...
