FM9 Gig Bag

Studio Slips. I had them make an extra tall pocket for me so I could fit extra cables, expression pedals, etc in mine.

Wish Lovepedal Cot50

That's a nice one! We don't have any Electra Distortion-derived circuits in the drive block yet, like the Cot50, EQD Speaker/Special Cranker, or the Mythos Golden Fleece fuzz, so it would be great to have them added!

Thank you! I'm so happy to finally have my wah pedal stay off when I boot up my FM9!

[edit] - bought the kemper bag, was: "still confused about FM9 bags"

I went with the messenger strap since I usually have my guitar on my back already.

That's what I love about my oversized Studioslips one. I can fit three expression pedals, my power cable and 1/4" both in Cabli spools, a Morningstar MC3, a Disaster Area DPC.Micro, a Cioks 4, and a 1Spot.

Hey Jack, I'm using a Studioslips one for my FM9. I'm happy with the padding. It's not a giant fluffy pillow or anything, but it's protective. I had them make an oversized pocket on mine so I can fit a ton of extras in it. You're welcome to take a look at mine and see if you like it.

No global blocks on FM9 deal breaker for Axe III user

The downside is that you're stuck reusing the same patch. The real power of global blocks is that it actually works to overcome the CPU limitations of the FM9 (and FM3). I have a couple of nearly identical presets, as far as amps, cabs, compressors, etc, go, but with different effects. I can't...

I just installed the official 6.0 firmware and my wah is still loading engaged in the initial preset.

External Controller startup issue

@Admin M@ I'm continuing this thread from here as the beta firmware thread was closed. So I did the test you recommended: I made two copies of a blank preset with a volume block with my pedal unplugged and experimented with setting the initial values to 0%, 50%, and 100%. It behaved as you...

FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (2)

The external modifiers initial value bug is still present in beta 2. On boot, the initial value settings in the setup menu for external modifiers are ignored and all external modifiers are set to 100%. After changing to a new preset, the initial values are loaded correctly, but not on the first...

FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

It's just an FM9 bug. The FM3 doesn't have this issue with external controllers when booting up. I don't have an AFX3 but I assume it also doesn't have the bug.

FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

I finally got around to trying out the beta firmware and spotted a bug: This has been present for several firmware versions now, but when the FM9 boots it ignores the initial value settings for external controllers and sets them all to 100%. (Setup -> MIDI/Remote -> General). If you change to a...

Free IRs: 1986 Peavey Bandit 65 1x12 with Sheffield speaker

I just finished shooting some IRs of my Peavey Bandit 65 1x12 combo with the stock Sheffield speaker. I used the Slate ML1 modeling microphone and used models of EV RE-20, SM57, and R121 mics. I did a little EQing with the Slate Neve and SSL EQs and Fabfilter ProQ2.
