    Bug? PARTIALLY SOLVED: FM 6.03 - all layouts erased and buttons on FM3/FC6 not working properly after reloading OMG9

    Using the FC12. I lost most of my set up layout upon startup, so I’ve re imported the OMG 15 layout. All presets are still intact but the FM3 is not showing the text “Presets” “Scenes” and “Effects”, it’s just blank, coloured rings are working on the buttons.Anyone know how to fix this? TIA...

    I recorded this song as a demo. There are 2 guitar parts in the intro. One is a muted 16th note strum, the other is a hybrid picked part. No obvious delay was used. The chorus was double tracked using the same sound as the intro. I used a Friedman amp to record on medium gain using a...

    It comes down to portability and toe tapping V more gear and minimal navigation.

    Anyone using the FC12?

    I’ve been using an FC 6, just got an FC12, will use it with the band this Friday night. It’s more a complete layout IMO, Tap Tempo and Tuner is easy to access. The only downsides are cost and physical size.

    Qsc k12.2 for live use with an FM9?

    I’ve tried quite a few FRFR speakers. I’ve settled on a RCF TT08, absolutely superb speaker. I would also look at a Tt10 version but they are hard to find ATM. I think a 12” is overkill for guitar, the smaller speakers really punch out the mids.

    RCF tt FRFR

    Why no mention of the RCF TT line for FRFR monitors? They are top of the line from RCF, powerful, clean and clear. I have a tt08a and I couldn’t imagine a better monitor. All I’m hearing is CLR this and Xitone that!

    Which FRFR? Is it worth it?

    K12 get so much hype, I personally find that they fall apart quickly, the high mids are weak and are not accurate. Plastic enclosure sounds “plastic”. I’d look at a Birch cab for a start.

    Best power amp to drive a cab?

    So I got my new FM3 a couple of days ago and Im thinking of the best way to run a regular guitar cab as a stage monitor. FRFR will be going direct to FOH from outputs 1.

    Matrix NL12 Impressions

    Nice review. The extra brightness can be a good thing in a band mix and it has no bearing on FOH if you are running direct.

    Going to try FRFR again at a gig, but why is everything sounding so harsh?

    I was just offering a patch which is a standard rock tone. If this does not work with the OP I'm guessing something is not right, could be something as simple as the cab sim is not activated!

    Matrix NL12: Worthy replacement for Mesa EVM12L 1x12 Thiele?

    Your situation sounds like mine. I slowly replaced every part of my rig, with a few things in mind. Weight, maintenance costs and inconsistency of valve gear, size and versatility. I even had similar type questions here. I would recommend the NL12, you won't regret it!

    Yeah good choice, the ported option is a good one, you can tune in/out stage sound. Be aware that there is some loss of bass frequency though.

    In ear monitors

    After much trial and error, Molded triple drivers ( 'Alien Ears" or "1964") and a wired transmitter running the cable alongside guitar cable. Works best for me. Skimping on an ear piece is false economy.

    Thanks for answering because my answer was "Good question", your answer makes sense though. I use both CFR and NL12 in stereo and the NL12 fills the "cab in the room" sound for me. Although I can't give you a scientific answer why they both sound different, I guess the NL12 is hyped where it...

    Happy New Matrix Day! NL212 & GT1000FX

    Impending speaker selection advice. Live/metal/heavy input especially welcomed.

    I'm using 2 1x12 speakers. Stereo is a must for me, love it. I've got 1x CFR (FRFR) and one NL12, best of both worlds. If I had to choose one it would be the NL12, I can not use FRFR alone, well I can but it is not my preference.

    Running stereo into one cab is not the best way to do it. There is no separation/width between the sides, so the stereo effect would be barely noticeable.
