    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    That’s what i was thinking: sometimes i have presets that work just fine at 82-83 and others that cut off at 81-82. Only The Man can know

    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    It probably depends on the specific blocks used
  3. angelworm

    Can use my Fm9 for channel switching on my real tube amp?

    don't think you can do that. what you can do is use fm9's midi capability to pilot a channel switching device. assuming your amps are not midi.

    Can FM3 handle series amp blocks now?

    FM3 still only features 1 amp block, if that’s what you’re asking

    the Eventide H90 leak reminds us of how good we have it with FM3

    yep, let's discuss this in a motorbike forum. what problem ? is there a problem ? man, you're boring... it surely will...but have you ever considered the differences between the two business ? Fractal and Eventide are widely different, in terms of financial power, manufacturing capabilities...

    Guthrie Govan chorus sound... any suggestion ?

    Sounds like a pretty standard detuning effect: it should be easily achievable with pitch or plex delay blocks

    FM3 KLON?

    Don’t ask: If they add klon to FM3 they’ll need to raise FM3 price by 300$ at least. That’s the magic of that pedal

    Ok, so i’m not crazy or deaf: i was using the VC last evening and i was thinking “wtf ? This is not bad at all !” I was just about to write something, then i saw this post. The VC in 5.0b is perfectly usable to me.

    FM3 Firmware Version 5.00 beta 1

    Logical flaw: company exist to make money, so if the “floor Axe 3” would sell more than rack, FAS would just start selling shitloads of floor models, limiting the rack. They would still make money. Truth is that cheaper versions exist for the people who don’t need the full set of capabilities...

    Where can I get a list of the real names of the overdrives in the FM3. I like king of tone…is that a Klon?

    You had to name that pedal, didn’t you ? Now i can see Cliff undoing the code for FW5, like Penelope 😀

    Not to forget that with 4 voices you can still have harmony and detune in a single block.

    Building an 80s Rack Preset

    “Jesus, is there anything you people don’t bitch about”

    Cliff i still remember when you presented the Axe for the first time (that i'm aware of, of course); it was on "Huge Racks", and we were thinking "who's this alien ? what is he talking about ?" look what you have accomplished; spoiled brats are just that, spoiled brats.

    Axe-Fx III Firmware Release Version 17.00

    Using an expression pedal to 'morph'?

    Of course you can: you can assign modifiers to several parameters (gain, level and tone for example) and attach them to the same pedal. By modifying the curves you can go from crunch to lead. Or, better, you can morph between two different amps, attaching the pedal to two volume blocks with...

    Delay Block Update

    Well, I’m old enough to remember when people were upset by the tonal degradation and limitations of analog delays; back in the days they were throwing away analog pedals. Anyway, I’m ok with that, it was only a joke. I’m waiting for blu-ray emulation of VHS 😃

    Hi gents, just got my hands on a nice MC6 MKII: very powerful but a bit overwhelming; for now I managed to setup a bank with preset inc/dec and 4 scenes. How do you use yours ? I was thinking 1 bank with 12 presets and 1 bank with scenes, maybe 1 bank for looper Thanks

    Axe III via Studio Monitor v.s. Tube Combo at the Same Volume

    Maybe I missed some posts: can you give me one example of users “gang-up” ? All I have seen is a bunch of people trying to explain that tube amp and modelers + FRFR are entirely different experiences; I didn’t see anyone overreacting or being dismissive. But maybe I didn’t read all the posts.

    Why Your Amp Doesn't Sound Like Our Amp

    50 watts vs 1000 watts
