    So I returned my Helix Stadium XL to get an FM3...

    Welcome aboard! I don't think you'll be disappointed with the FM3! It's a fantastic unit! So powerful for its size!. Check out any videos with Cooper Carter, Leon Todd, Marco Fanton and also Jon Cordy .Either their own YT channels or G66 which usually have videos from quite a few Fractal users...

    How do I setup a Dunlop Mini for global volume?

    Isn't there a small switch inside the pedal to change the polarity in order for it to function as an expression pedal?

    FC6 Issue - Stuck On Boot Screen

    Well I opened it up and I'm not really sure what happened it just started working! One of the ribbon cables couldn't have been seated correctly. Thanks for your help chaps!

    FC6 Issue - Stuck On Boot Screen

    I think you guys might be right because even though it's powered up the Axe and FM3 aren't showing any FC's connected!

    FC6 Issue - Stuck On Boot Screen

    Could be I suppose! I could have a look. I haven't contacted the seller yet but he did have a pic on his listing showing it was working. Two of the XLR cables are G66 ones and the other one is one I had made up a while ago with Neutrik ends.

    FC6 Issue - Stuck On Boot Screen

    He didn't no! and he showed a pic of it working on his listing. Very strange! never had an issue like this before on other FC's when I owned them.

    FC6 Issue - Stuck On Boot Screen

    Hi guys, Happy new year to you all! I need a bit of help. I managed to snagged a used FC6 MKII off of Ebay over the holidays, it arrived today and I'm having an issue plugging in to either my Axe 3 or my FM3. When I plug in an XLR cable the FC6 powers on but gets stuck on the boot screen...

    Anyone tried a Boss XS-1 for drop tune?

    I didn't notice any warbling myself! It just sounded a bit unnatural to me and didn't really sound any better compared to the FM3 or Axe. I was using it with my JP2C head and cab and I have some external pedals going in the front end and in the FX Loop with an RJM MEGX. My FM3 is in 4cm well...
  14. Paulg2uk

    Anyone tried a Boss XS-1 for drop tune?

    I'd have to agree! I wasn't really liking it for the same reasons, I can just as easily use the VC in the FM3 or my Axe. I ended up returning mine in the end!
  15. Paulg2uk

    Anyone tried a Boss XS-1 for drop tune?

    I've owned one for a couple of weeks now and to be honest I don't really hear much difference between it and the Virtual Capo in the FM3. I think I might be tempted to sell it on and just stick with the virtual capo for now. I don't really need it! Slightly quicker tracking in the XS-1...

    I just recently bought a used MKII off of ebay again! Waiting for it to arrive. I've owned an FM3 a couple of times before and then an FM9 a couple of times.

    Temple Audio Duo 34 Flight Case

    It was a while ago now! I don't own that pedalboard anymore. It was probably Amazon or eBay. I can't remember the exact size but it was probably around 40mm total. I wouldn't go no more than 50mm. I hope that helps!

If you're in the US though I think the Pelican Vault case might be the best one. There's a couple of forum members on here that use...

    All RJM controllers are only available for "pre-order"

    Mario from RJM is very helpful. He actually implemented the midi on the JP2C head when he worked at Boogie. I hope the midi issue gets solved.

    All RJM controllers are only available for "pre-order"

    That's ok I'm in the located in the UK so it makes sense to buy it from my nearest distributor which is in Germany. I would've ordered one tomorrow but Ebay haven't paid out from the item I sold yet because of a postage delay. Gonna have to wait till the weekend now.

    All RJM controllers are only available for "pre-order"

    I hear you! It's expensive definitely but worth every penny.Its something you buy once and that's it. Or in my case twice lol Plus they do a lot more than the FC's. I had a GT22 a few months back and I had to unfortunately sell it as I needed the cash for a new car. I'm now in a position to buy...

    All RJM controllers are only available for "pre-order"

    Not normally but I think they do out of stock from time to time. Sheri from RJM did email me on Monday asking if I wanted to be notified when a GT16 would be back in stock. They must be starting to build them again. Probably waiting on parts. I live in the UK so I figured it would be easier to...

    Temple Audio Duo 34 Flight Case

    I think it is was around 40mm from what I remember. That would allow for the rubber grommet as well, if you're not using a grommet then it will be a little smaller.

    Power amp for Axe-Fx 3 / FM3 / FM9

    CL1-100 weighs in at 14.8lbs which is 6.7kg The Matrix GT1000 weighs in at 8.2llbs which is 3.7kg so around 3kg heavier. The Fryette LXII is around 12kg and that was quite heavy for me anyway. It did have 6L6's in it though!

    FM9 to Voodoo Gizmo to change Mesa Mk5 35w channels and solo

    That's what I said they, need to both be configured to the same midi channel so the FM9 can send midi CC or PC messages to it! I did this recently with the Mini Effects Gizmo X! Worked great before I moved all my analog pedals and VP4 to a separate board. There's no midi indicator on the amp...

    FM9 to Voodoo Gizmo to change Mesa Mk5 35w channels and solo

    What midi channel is the FM9 and amp Gizmo on? They need to be on the same channel to talk to each other! Midi block doesn't need any routing it can be placed anywhere on the grid and you just need to set the correct midi channel and PC and/or CC no.

    Powering the VP4 with a Gigrig setup

    Wah not Volume on VP4

    You have two choices with that, you can get another exp pedal and set it up globally. Or you'd need to put a vol block in your chain and use a modifier to control it.

    Wah not Volume on VP4

    You're welcome! glad it worked! Enjoy!

    Wah not Volume on VP4

  51. Paulg2uk

    Wah not Volume on VP4

    Hi there, welcome to the forum! Can I ask what blocks you have in your preset? And how did you setup your expression pedals originally? I think you may have set it up globally on both volume and wah instead of in the blocks themselves!

    Recommended barefoot buttons /toppers for these switches?

    If they are the same foot switches as the FM9, FM3 etc, Which I reckon they are! Then go with the Barefoot V1 mini's. I have V1 mini's on my FM9, I can see the footswitch ring lights with no issues. The normal V1's might block your view of the foot switch lights on the VP4.

    MIDI Controller for VP4
