    Is there a plan to add global preset blocks to FM9 (turbo or otherwise)?

    Global blocks are extremely useful. They can change the way you use your fractal product. I can’t believe they are not working on it and I can’t believe a lot of users are not claiming for it…

    Midi potentiometer

    Just as an example. These two pots on my pedalboard are always linked as exp pedal 2 and 3 to output volume of output 1 and 2. (Going from 0 to 10) In this way if I want to modify volume boost for solo I can do it on the fly on all presets that I use separately to front of the house and in my...

    Midi potentiometer

    Thanks all guys. The reason why I would like to use midi controls is that in this way you don’t have to store the result in any preset you use. With midi you may act like expression controls linker to a parameter. It’s valid for all preset containing that parameter. I use 2 potentiometers...

    Midi potentiometer

    Any suggestions on midi potentiometer for on the fly fine tuning? I would like to buy a kind of midi controller with some potentiometers and connect it to my fm9 to be able to assign to some parameters (eg. bass middle treble gain) for amp like on the fly fine tuning. Any suggestion? Luca

    Global Amp

    That’s a great idea. A global block library in ax8 edit with a new option to update all presents using that block while saving. I always save my amps in ax8 edit but then I have to load them in each preset using the amp. An automatic update would be great!

    A question for those with lots of live Fractal experience...

    In a live situation I would suggest to use a few amps (I usually use 2 or 3 amps) and just one ir cab... Levels are important but also ir eq... if you use irs with different eq response (mainly in low end) the sound guy will get crazy or you will have a bad tone in some songs...

    Any regrets coming from a AXE FX II?

    The extra chipset is not a big issue if you don't need very complicated patches and routing... I miss a lot global blocks... in particular for amp block. Because live I use a couple of amps in a lot of patches and when I edit the amp block I have to replicate my modification in every patch.

    Fat parameter

    Yes I know it's possible to modify boost switch per scene but I cannot use the XY parameter to engage fat because I need a clean and a Friedman amp together in my patches.

    Fat parameter

    Sorry guys maybe it's an old question... Is it possible to switch fat parameter in amp block according to scene change? With the new firmware I've noticed that for solo I prefere using fat and bost parameter in amp block instead of using fractal lead drive block Luca

    Does the AX8 have an audio gap?

    A minimal audio gap is normal... Axe fx has a minimal gap but it's not a problem. Ax8 has a longer gap... Also in scene change and also using the same amp.. Just adding delay, drive and modifying volume... I don't know if it depends on high court use.. I will make some tests.. But it's...

    Does the AX8 have a Song or Set List mode?

    The problem is that if you copy and paste preset to have one for each song and you don't have global blocks if you do some tweaking the. It's a nightmare to replicate it in every song :-( In a live setup we really need global blocks at least for amps and cabs

    Global solo volume control

    Yes! Very nice idea. I completely agree with you. The amount of solo boost is different in different venue and also depends on the mixer and frfr system.
