    gapless amp switching

    Fixed it. Amp channel was the culprit. The thing is the gap shows up even if the block is disengaged. Not that big of a deal really...the gap is annoying but not really that bad. Thanks for all the help guys.

    This is probably the most plausible explanation. I’ll check it later today when I’m in front of the unit. Would this be an issue even if the block is not engaged?

    gapless amp switching

    I have just noticed that my FM9 setup produces a gap between amp1 and amp2 engagement. I have both in parallel in the signal. I use a scene controller to mute one and engage the other with one set up for a clean amp and the other set up for a dirty sounding amp. I had it set up the same way...

    FM9 Firmware Version 2.01 public beta

    Great weekend to try out this new FW. So far Macloving it. I have not noticed much difference in CPU optimization. My main preset has a Plex Delay in it and when I use some of the algorithms the CPU meter still dimes. Favorite amp models seem to change over time based on firmware updates...

    optomization! must mean CPU optimization which at this point is a must. I'm getting to 85% pretty easy which is pretty unusable at that high usage. I agree with someone who said it best to stay in the 70s if at all possible.

    FM9 Firmware Version 2.0 public beta

    I'm glad the plex delay was added to the fm9 but it can really eat up some CPU horsepower. That one block it seems is the most intensive on CPU. Also the reverb can get there with some of the more exotic verbs like strato etc.

    I never noticed having this issue on the last firmware, but to be fair it could have been the same. The reason why it caught me off guard was that I'm only using one amp block and the rest are pretty basic blocks like compressor--wah- drive- amp-cab- chorus- lezlie- delay- plex delay- reverb...

    FM9 Firmware Version 2.0 public beta

    I noticed that using the plex delay sees a significant jump in CPU usage. If memory serves me I think it jumped 10-12%. If I pull up the very first preset on the plex delay (cant remember the name off hand) it jumps all the way to 85%+-. At the 85% mark my fm9 responds very slowly to changes...
