    Fender Tone Master FR10

    Just got my fr10 delivered today. Very low hiss audible when Im not playing which . If you take the hi cut to less then 9 o'clock at the most the hiss goes away. I ended up not using the hi cut bc it just doesn't bother me. Very impressed with it. And I've owned a clr, rcf, qsc, headrush, matrix...

    How do you plan to use gapless switching?

    Just using my fm3 now so gapless is going to be great. It Would allow me take the 1-2 blocks which I can't fit in my kitchen sink patch and just make a second preset with the same core sounds and scenes, adding those one or two missing blocks. Mainly clean based modulation. So chorus or rotary...

    Tremolo with Multi-Delay Block?

    Think we need a bit more..... Do you mean can you run both a tremolo and mult dly block? Or can you tweak the the mult delay to sound like a tremolo as well? First answer is yes of you have the cpu. Tremolo doesn't cost much if you run certain types. In the multi delay block you can tweak the...

    From Fm9 to Fm3....crazy?

    If memory serves right rotary added 7% or so from my FM9 to fm3 mk ii patch. I could be wrong but if you're at 70% it'll definitely fit. I got rid of drive two block bc rotary is too good to get rid of. One of my favorite blocks.

    From Fm9 to Fm3....crazy?

    Use an fx loop to be able to split the grid.
  14. @danserrano

    From Fm9 to Fm3....crazy?

    If you're at 45% on those it'll definitely go up but you should be good w an fm3 again as long as you're not needing some of those second blocks. Even w reverb you can use lower quality and echo density to make it work and still sound great.
  15. @danserrano

    From Fm9 to Fm3....crazy?

    Fm9 I was using more stuff. I was around 78-80 as well but I had hi res cabs(dyna cab wasn't out yet) and was using two drive blocks and well as two amp blocks. Also reverb block but that takes like 1-2% cpu on Fm9. Mind you I didn't need those extras but the cpu allowed for it so I threw it in.
  16. @danserrano

    From Fm9 to Fm3....crazy?

    I sold both my mk i fm3 and my Fm9 and picked up a mk ii fm3 and do not regret it at all.

    Question on which low cut/high cut to use on the cab block...

    Nope. Being the peq is already blocking frequencies after a certain range. Let's say they're set to block at 6500hz those are your cuts and you shouldn't have to do it in the cab.

  79. @danserrano

    Had to reboot FM9 both gigs

    If it’s the plex blk that pushed you over put it back in and try lowering the cab from hi res to standard for that scene if it wasn’t already. That should free you the cpu needed. Like chris mentioned the reverb has a dedicated processor so it wouldn’t be that.
  80. @danserrano

    Had to reboot FM9 both gigs

    Do you solely use presets or scenes with in the presets as well? Sometimes we can forget to check a certain scene with in the patch that can take us off the cpu cliff. Hope it gets figured out.
  81. @danserrano

    How many use only presets, or do you roll your own?

    I’ve always made my own. If I hear something interesting I’ll download a patch to look at certain settings but most downloaded presets just don’t translate well to my ears. Plus I enjoy the process of creating my own stuff w fractal gear.

    I’m using ultra res in all scenes except one. My last scene is an ambient one using the shimmer verb. Pretty cpu heavy…. Hoping for this new pitch setting in the reverb block will allow me to do away with the shimmer verb and I’ll be able to go ultra res cabs in my kitchen sink patch.
  95. @danserrano
