    Any recommendations for mic preamp (vocals into FM9)?

    I am in the same boat looking for suitable options. Getlostinthesound makes a solid point about getting a real pre, more so a nice one. We spend all this money on the best guitar technology, why not match that for the vocals…especially if you are the lead singer. I have tried some of the pedal...

    FM9 Firmware Version 2.01

    I was able to revert back and compare 1.0 and 2.02 and there is a significant difference in my patches (at least the ones I created from scratch). I understand this is to be expected, but it is a lot to work through. The BIG differences are volume and the top end EQ curve. V1.0 is about 2db...
