    touch sensitive cleans

    I'll try to make this as clear as I can. I love touch sensitive amps. Although I can't think of any amps offhand that do what I'm trying to describe, I've been looking for a clean tone that allows you to hear your fingerprints move across the strings type of sensitivity, the kind of clean tone...

    Anyone still using a tube amp?

    I sold all my tube amps since getting the FM9. But lately I've been thinking about getting another tube amp. Does anyone still use tube amps now and then, or do most just use their Fractal?

    installing firmware - SOLVED

    I have installed firmware for FM3 and FM9 several times. But for some reason, I'm having issues installing 5.0 When I open Fractal Bot, it allows you to select Send or Receive. I selected Receive, and it downloads the firmware. I select Send and nothing happens. I've read the manual, but it...

    Has anyone compared these two cabs? Or does anyone have a comment about the Line 6 powercab?

    glassy cleans

    I'm looking for cleans like on a JTM45 or Vox 30 or a really nice tweed. The main thing I need is a speaker that will get me cleans where it's so sensitive that you can hear your fingerprints on the strings. So far, the cleans I have found are good, but not that good. Anyone have any...

    using 2 monitors

    I'm wanting to try 2 monitors at the same time. I just got my Xitone cab and was wondering how it would sound using the Headrush 108 that I've been using while waiting for it to be built. Since I'm still pretty new at all this, I have not tried it before. I went to the manual and looked on...

    saving a scene

    There is a scene within a Preset that I want to save. The Preset is something I downloaded, and it doesn't work except for one scene, which I like a lot. I want to create a whole new Preset out of this scene. How do I do that?

    OMG9 and firmware 5.0

    I installed the new firmware 5.0 and I need to update OMG9. Although I have it installed, when I updated the firmware, it set everything back to default. What the manual says is outdated. The names have changed in FM3 Edit (Config). I emailed Mark at Fractal, and he said everything should...

    Trouble installing beta firmware 5.00

    I updated FM3 Edit. But when I try to install the new beta firmware 5.00, it says it's not a valid bitmap file and its format cannot be supported. I don't know how to correct this so that it will install.

    expression pedal wah/volume

    I set up an expression pedal, as Cooper Carter explained. I use it as a wah in scene 3 (channel A), and I use it as a volume pedal in scene 4 (channel B). When I'm on scene 3, the volume pedal is muted. When I'm on scene 4, the wah pedal won't mute. With CC, his volume muted with the wah...

    saving volume levels on presets and scences

    Ok, this is dumb. I set the volume levels where I want - and even adjust the volume in Preset leveler - then I click Save. I've gone through my Presets and Scenes. Then after I turn it off and come back and turn it on later, the volume levels are not where I set them. I don't get it.

    FM3 backup?

    I've been thinking iabout getting a backup for my FM3 (getting another one). Do any of you have backups for your FM3, or do you just hope for the best?

    FM3 amp feedback

    In this video, Cooper Carter gets nice feedback from one of his presets. Check it out at 3:35. How do you get an amp to feedback like this?

    Xitone cabs

    What's up with Xitone cabs? I ordered a cab from him back in August. I was told it would take 7-8 weeks. It's now 3 months later. I emailed him, and he won't respond. Is he still in business? Does anyone know? I may have to open a Paypal dispute to get my money back if I don't hear from...

    distortion/harshness

    I'm pretty new to the FM3, and I know I have more to learn. In all my presets for OD, regardless of amp model, I have a harshness or distortion on a lot of notes. I've tried other guitars, and it's the same. I'm including a preset I made so someone can check it out, if they want, and see if...

    noise gate for single coil

    I've been thinking of switching from noiseless single coils to regular single coils, because of the tone. But I hate the hum. I'm new to the FM3. Does the noise gate in the FM3 help eliminate single coil hum? If it does, does it change the tone?

    ODS tone

    All the ODS-100 gain tones (whether the RF or Bludo) sound a little harsh and fuzzy. Is that how everyone else's ODS gain tones sound? I was having an issue and had to reset the system parameters. I don't know if the ODS tones are correct with mine or not. They should be smoother. But I...

    FM3 and FRFR speaker settings

    Since I'm new to this, I'm just curious as to where people set the volumes of the FM3 and their powered speakers. Do you turn the speakers up more, or the FM3 up more? I'm trying to find the right balance. Right now I have my Headrush 108 at 50% and adjust the FM3 to that.

    Not a Bug Presets not working properly

    (I'm new at this.) When I click on Presets, I select something I want. Then if I click on the amp in Type to load another amp, it doesn't change the preset I previously selected. Currently I have 073 ODS-HRM 100 selected. I have clicked on Type several times to change to another amp, and it...

    Voxy clean tone

    I haven't found a clean tone yet on the FM3 that sounds like a Vox Top Boost clean tone. Here is a video that is close to what I'm talking about. It's the first 20 seconds of the video: Has anyone found or made a preset like this tone?

    Issue installing FM3 USB drivers

    I've tried many times to install the USB drivers, but they won't install correctly. Fractal Audio says: If any of these entries are missing you should uninstall the one(s) that are present, then re-run the driver installer and make sure all three packages are installed. Fractal Audio...

    FM3 footswitch

    I have used tube amps all my life, but I recently decided to look into the FM3. I know nothing about modeling amps or processors. I've been watching videos on the FM3, and I have a question...or two. When using an amp with pedals, it's easy to step on a pedal and instantly get what you want...
