Fractal Fanatic
I was speaking in more general terms.But in this case there was no actual change of latency when bypassing the CAB block. It was a purely psychological construction.

I tend to agree, but I had a thought the other day that may possibly help explain why some people insist they can perceive extremely low latency levels...
You know how it's impossible to hear a complex piece of music one time, then sit down at the piano and play it perfectly? Yet some people can do just that. It's one of the ways autism plays a role into what they can and cannot do, and the things they are able to do are nothing short of astounding. Yet for the vast majority of us, it's impossible. But it proves that the human brain can have some amazing capabilities.
So, what if the ones claiming they can detect those low latency levels just happen to have something going on in their brains that truly, for them, makes it possible?
I agree! I've said it a lot, that I think everything about us is on some type of spectrum. I am so glad that my music appreciation level is high up on mine. I can hear certain chord changes that really amaze me in ways I can't explain, yet fall on deaf ears to others. But then again, I have no interest in throwing a hook on the end of a line into water. And waiting.Sensitivity seems like a spectrum.
I was referring to the lag in performance of response in the FM3. The lag from hitting a foot switch to the time it takes for the unit to respond. Not the the latency one might feel playing guitar into it. I can understand how that might be misconstrued. I guess I should have used a different term.

This is great info. Makes complete sense why there would be a slight delay in response if hold functions are enabled. Thanks for the tips!Remove hold functions.
Without hold functions and with scene controllers, there is ZERO lag.
No I don’tHm.
So do you still have a Fractal?
Maybe offer to sit with your critical band mates and tweak/compare tones.Hi all,
I am using modellers since years - from Pod II, X3 to AX8 and now FM3. I am playing in a classic rock cover band, very old school and so the band members are (less me ;-) ). Yesterday we had again discussion, bandmates complain that my sound is not "cool", has no "punch" and is even too thin to start songs like "Highway to hell". To be honest I am tired of that kind of discussion and I am wondering if they are right or just deaf. Btw. my sound is always compared to the one from our other guitarist playing an Engl 120W Head with 2x12 Engl cabinet. I play through a Dynacord AXM12A and through PA Yamaha DXR Stuff 2x15" + 2x12" and a Behringer XR18 console.
I attached the preset that I am currently using, would be great to get some opinions here. AC/DC for example I play with Scene 2 plus overdrive activated.
Thanks so much in advance !
Love the L1, fills the room without tearing your head off!When I first got the Fractal, I put it in a room next to a Brand New Fender Bassbreaker.... the Fractal through a Bose L1 system or whatever, turned by back to them and played. There was "no difference" at all in this case. This is what really showed me "what" the Fractal was. Immediately, I could not tell the differences, and the nuances I loved were in both. Indistinguishable.
With the recent FRFR like the Headrush 108, it definitely has a "sound" that kind of sounds like paper...
I think the ISP+ box and a cab was the same, but perhaps I didnt break in the ISP box... I only played it once.
Thats a good idea ! I hope my bandmates are patient enough and not too stubborn ;-)Maybe offer to sit with your critical band mates and tweak/compare tones.
I really appreciated the educated ears of my band mates and gained valuable insights at times.
If dudes are just hatin' get a new gig.
Tell those dweebs to talk less and play more or say goodbye. Your time in this world is too short to waste on these people.Hi Yesterday we had again discussion, bandmates complain that my sound is not "cool", has no "punch" and is even too thin to start songs like "Highway to hell".

In a heartbeat!Well, to keep things in perspective:
if I found out that a band member was complaining about other band members on an online forum, I would kick him / her out of the band without further ado. ;-)
