    Struggling with the FM9

    I agree with everything here with the exception of if you liked the amp in real life. I know ears not eyes should apply to the amp models you select as much as their settings but IMO part of the reason we pay this higher price tag for FAS gear is if we like/love the amp IRL, we should feel the...

    Future amp sets: Separate or combined ICONS?

    I would like to see a model like IK & STL do. You buy the base plugin, maybe it has a good basic selection of their FX a few each of Wahs, Comps, Drives (more of these), Chorus, Flange, Trem, Phase, Delay & Reverb. You get an amp (or two) with the initial purchase and then buy the rest à la...

    CPU

    To piggyback on this, I’m not sure the function Cubase does but Reaper allows you to freeze a track, which takes just a few seconds and the result is the fx printed on the track and the fx moved into an offline state. The great thing is you can unfreeze if you want to make adjustments.

    FAS Plugin…again….I know… m

    Not to mention easing workflow. Being able to hear the tones without reamping. I know you can record both DI and Amped at the same time, but that can be cumbersome, adding more tracks, also if you like to edit while recording, like I do, then you have to edit 2 tracks at the same time etc...

    Introducing ICONS - Amp Modeling + FX - Plugins & Standalone

    Of course I am just spitballing here. 5 or 6 may be ambitious but 4 could possibly be more palatable for them, which would still get me my Mark, 5150, Some sort of Marshall and something else. Anything beyond that I could just use my FM9. The question of course would be the amp count as 1 or...

    Introducing ICONS - Amp Modeling + FX - Plugins & Standalone

    This is something I thought would never come, mostly because we were told it would not. I do not want to be one of those that is critcal of the new goodie we get, expecting FAS to cater to my needs/wants and negating the time, effort and money they have invested in the development, not just the...

    Introducing ICONS - Amp Modeling + FX - Plugins & Standalone

    For me, my High Gain wishes would be a 5150 (3 or block), Mark IV, JVM 410, Probably a Recto, I could probably use this for the vast majority of my projects and for anything else, I just reamp through my FM9. My case use for this will really be during tracking, I have been using NAM and...

    RAM?

    I will likely be freezing the tracks in Reaper to save processing.

    Introducing ICONS - Amp Modeling + FX - Plugins & Standalone

    This is a day I thought would never come! in all fairness, how many times have we been told it would never happen? I’ve been one of those consistently asking for it. Hell for all I know it may have been my comment. I’m pretty damn excited about this! As soon as high gain models/collections...

    Wish Laney GH50

    I have asked after this one for years but I would love to have a model of this one, or even the guidance on how to recreate it with what we have. I had one many moons ago, some say it was a one trick pony and in some ways it kinda was. It was essentially a single channel but had a great clean...

    Set When LFO Starts- Filter Block

    I am jamming with some guys on Long Long Way From Home by Foreigner. I am replicating the synth in the intro by using a chorus, a fast tremolo and a filter sweep. I know I could control the filter sweep with my mission EP1 but since this is going to be tied to a scene I would much rather the...

    Plugins vs Fractal

    Yes, there's really no comparing but there's so much more conveience in plugins, especially to listen to DI tracks when playing back or editing before a reamp. I wish FAS would design a plugin even if it required a unit connected as a dongle, then I wouild buy a FM3 for this purpose...

    All Hail the Mighty Butch Walker

    Exactly! For example, I still haven’t been able to get a rotary block to sound as good as his does in that video.

    Axe-Fx II as an audio interface?

    Thank you. I am going to try this over the holidays. fAS has said the FM9 doesn’t send midi cc out over USB

    Axe-Fx II as an audio interface?

    I have been thinking of revisiting my AF2 to decide whether or not I am going to sell it. I have been using my FM9 as an interface. If y ou know, in Reaper, what kind of routing needs to be done for DI tracks & Reamping through USB? Also does anyone know if the AF2 can send a midi cc out to...
