    Cab lab preset sharing question.

    If the IR mix is made with any commercial IRs, you can't share the resulting IR. I believe that you can share the Cab Lab 'recipe'/file. Then the end user has the option of using the correct IR(s) if already purchased, or purchase them as needed.

    Plexi amp on max - is this normal?

    Always leave them at '0' dB, unless you have a specific reason to change them. And use the 'Thru' (default) bypass type on serial blocks (without tails). Effects with 'tails', use 'Mute Fx In'. The way you have it setup, the signal is being reduce three times after the Amp block. Some of the...

    Plexi amp on max - is this normal?

    You have several block levels set low? and their bypass types are wrong IMHO

    Plexi amp on max - is this normal?

    That seems odd. Is the signal level being reduced somewhere else in the signal chain? As always, posting the preset (if allowed?) is best.

    Pedal Steel Patch - Pitch Block

    You shouldn't have to assign anything in the preset itself. The two Control Switches are already attached to their respective pitch bending functions. You do however have to assign the two Control Switches to two switches on your FM3 and set them as 'Momentary'. This can be via the hardwired or...

    Pedal Steel Patch - Pitch Block

    Here it is, reworked for the FM3 (FW 7.00), so that you can play around with it. Removed the Ambient/Enhancer parts. Tweaked the 'Plex-Delay' 5th/6th pseudo Pitch block to be a bit smoother? Selected a different Reverb, as the FM3 doesn't have all of the current FM9 models. Maybe a Spring model...

    Mono/Stereo Cab block with real cab

    If you're intent is to always only run mono on stage, and to front of house, then just stay with the mono versions, when available, of all effects.

    Mono/Stereo Cab block with real cab

    Mono effects still have a right and left input and output. every block, shunt and virtual cable on the grid is stereo. Mono effects don't sum the dry signal, that remains stereo. Only the effect output is mono.

    Running the Synergy into Axe 3 into poweramp out to cabinets on stage.

    wet/dry/wet question

    I would go with speakers/cabs that are rated at the power amp output or higher. In this type of solid-state setup, you don't really want any power amp distortion, like you might with a tube power amp setup. The FM3 will model all of that internally.
  70. Moke

    wet/dry/wet question

    You may need to change some global settings of particular Outputs to match the needs of whatever you are connecting them to. But, what part(s) of your preset(s) that is routed to which Output(s) will need to be setup on the 'grid' of the preset(s).

    Again... YES You just have to setup the amp/effect blocks and Output 1 and 2 blocks as desired.

    Very possible. You could put OUT 1 in it's own row, just after the Amp block. Then put OUT 2 after the post/wet effects, with no dry signal if desired.
