    Not a Bug Volume Block Before vs After Amp

    The compression of the amp block is changing the response. A volume pedal before the amp will first clean up the amp, then it will get quieter. If you want a smooth change in volume with no change in tone, put the volume block after the amp.

    Is this noise normal?

    Turn down your guitar all the way. Does the noise go away?

    FM9 Headphones output extremely loud - Ear protection

    Yes, it depends on the impedance and sensitivity of the headphones. Fractal gear can drive 300 ohm headphones pretty well, so you have to be careful with lower impedance cans like the ATH-M50's. They get crazy loud quick.

    I can't get to work FX Loop on AX8 with MATRIX GT1000FX 1U

    Change Out 2 Echo to Output 1 in the I/O menu. No FX Loop block is needed.

    Volume pedal issue

    On the Modifier screen curve, does the ball go from the bottom left at heel down to the top right at toe down as you move the pedal?

    Load empty preset

    CPU and memory probably. I don't think you'll notice much difference if your presets don't use a ton of CPU. If the current preset is very high CPU, Fractal Bot operations can go really slowly.

    Stereo Pitch Effects

    True, it won't be exactly the same, but close enough for many purposes. If you use the preamp sim in the cab block and introduce non-linear behavior it will be even more different pre vs post.

    Stereo Pitch Effects

    If you put the pitch block after the cab block and adjust the high and low cut filters in the pitch block to match those in the cab block, the end result will be the same.

    Stereo Pitch Effects

    Yes, if you want both cabs to be used for both channels, you'll need to add a second cab block and select those same IRs in that block as well. You'd set the input mode in one block to Left Only and hard pan the cabs Left. In the other, you'd select Right Only input and pan the cabs hard...

    Stereo Pitch Effects

    No, you'd have a mono signal that is twice as loud. The only way to keep the stereo image intact is to hard pan the cabs. When the cab block is set to Stereo input, cabs 1 and 3 are fed by the Left input channel and cabs 2 and 4 are fed by the right input channel. They must be kept separate...

    Mackie Studio Monitor as FRFR

    Depends on your idea of better. They're designed for somewhat different purposes. Studio monitors will most likely have a flatter and more accurate response, but will usually lack the familiar feel of a guitar cab in the room since they are designed for near field use at a specific listening...

    Humbuster?

    No. It says the Tip and Ring are bridged. In a Humbuster cable, the Ring and Sleeve are bridged at the TS end (shielded two conductor cable).

    Stereo Pitch Effects

    One of your reverb blocks is also set to 100% wet in series. if you turn that block on it will sum to mono again. The wet input to the reverb algorithms is mono. The dry signal keeps the stereo image, but the wet does not. For full stereo thru reverb, you'll need to use two reverb blocks in...

    Stereo Pitch Effects

    Hard panning Cab 1 Left and Cab 2 Right fixes it for me with your preset on my Axe III.

    Single Switch on FC Pedal Input Behaviour - Help Please!

    This ↑. The default bypass mode of Value can lead to the switch's virtual toggle state getting out of sync with the bypass state of the block if it gets changed by scenes. When they are out of sync, you'll have to hit the switch twice: once to get it back in sync and again to change the state...
