Let's see those FM3 rigs!

I'd love to hear some recordings of your steel through the FM3! That's what I use with my steel guitar, too.

We opened for Blue Oyster Cult last night, and during their sound check I noticed that the bass player uses an FM3. Pretty cool!

I played steel guitar in a band that opened for Sawyer Brown last night. Here is a picture of the Sawyer Brown bass player's FM3 rig.

Let's see those FM9 rigs!

That version of the FM9 would be the perfect fly rig. Just fold it up and put it in your pocket! Fractal needs to get busy working on paper-thin guitar processors.

Kansas and Head East using Fractal Audio processors

It was absolutely inspiring to watch Kansas perform. Those guys are fantastic musicians, and they deliver that music with stunning perfection. I've been up all night now listening to my favorite Kansas songs!

Kansas and Head East using Fractal Audio processors

I was able to open for one of my all-time favorite bands tonight---Kansas! I was interested to see that Rich Williams and David Ragsdale both use Fractal processors direct to the P.A., with no speaker cabinets on stage. Rich uses two Axe-FX III units for his electric guitars, and one Axe-FX II...

FM9 Case?

I don't like that the buttons are being pressed, but I don't know if that's a problem or not. They're not being smashed down, just pressed. I can hear the click when I close the bag. If it's possible for you to check the case out in person before you buy one, that would help. I would hate to see...

FM9 Case?

There's no tag or any model information anywhere in or on the bag, other than the Pedaltrain logo on the front. It seems like the measurements of his case and mine are very similar, though.

FM9 Case?

I'm so sorry about that! I just checked the fit of my case again, and the FM9 fits easily in the case except at the top, where the case tapers slightly. I just pull the sides back a bit, and it fits in. The case zips up easily, and it looks like the zipper doesn't touch the edges of the unit...
