    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    Thanks - I can see the Overdrive volume control on the FM9 screen and it defaults to 5 (the same as the Master Volume). If I turn it upto 10 the block volume is about the same as the other amp models. So are the default values too low?

    Ive spent some more time looking at the ODS volume issue - created a new preset and setup from scratch and see same volume drop issue - if you scroll past the Fox ODS, Mr MZ-8, ODS models in the amp picker window the volume drops dramatically! I have resaved existing presets using the ODS...
  20. B

    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    Im used to small differences, but 25db output difference means you blow your head off if you setup a ODS amp at unity level, then scroll to a different amp type! It didnt used to be that big a difference.
  21. B

    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    Cheers - have updated AxeEdit.3 Not running master volume very low, the ODS-100 channel is way quieter (About 25db) than the Friedman channel with similar Gain and Master volume settings.
  22. B

    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    All ODS-100 amps seem very low on output - have to crank Out level to +10db to match other amps at -12db. Is this expected behaviour? Have tried to save a preset to upload, but FM9Edit times out "Communication time out" and hangs once Preset -> Export preset is selected. FM9Edit works ok...

    Wish Freeze is heating up

    The gapless patch changes is done by sustaining the previous patch until the new one is ready and only uses a few % CPU, so a slightly longer version of that would be more efficient that a full reverb block. Im trying to do this on a AXEFX and a FM9 - so want a common approach and the reverb...
  47. B

    Wish Freeze is heating up

    Agreed, I’m just trying to setup a “chord sustain” type block to allow short riffs to be played over momentary footswitch held chords, and setting up an additional reverb block just to do this seems CPU wasteful.

You need to be wary with midi CC...
  72. B

    3 Stand-in Switches PLUS Expression pedal with toe switch?

    I use a expression pedal into a Morningstar MC3 to send midi to FM9 - it allows me to map the expression to one of three separate midi CC's (depending on MC3 preset I select) - so I can use one pedal for volume (CC#6), wah (CC#7) or effect mix (CC#8). So worth checking that out.
  73. B

    Is there a consensus headphone choice?

    With the Waves plugin, do you need to pay yearly to keep the software updated? or does the Ollo licence give you perpetual ownership? Ive been screwed by their "Waves Update Plan" payment crap thats needed to to have two licences on different machines in the past.

    Wish Toggle Layouts and Views?

    Yes you can. But not to toggle between views from a Stand in Switch (which doesnt switch with the layout), my SIS use spare switches on the Master Layout of the FM9 - SIS are linked to buttons on a specific layout, so dont switch with the FM9/C6/FC12 display.
