White noise at boot up

Anyone else experience this? Just turned on my FM9 with the 2.0 beta and was blasted with very loud white noise coming out. Made me jump out of my chair :dizzy: I'm connected via spidf to my AU Apollo X6 interface. Reboot fixed the issue.

Question about MIDI block bypass?

I'm trying to turn on/off individual blocks via MIDI. Quoting the FM3 manual page 103, "Bypass page of the MIDI menu allows you to map MIDI CC messages—or connected pedals and switches— to bypass or engage blocks". However when I assign and send a CC message number, it only seems to bypass the...

Not a Bug FM3 and FM3-Edit going nuts when clock-sync'd

I was clock sync'ing the FM3 to Logic while monitoring FM3 Edit. Both were wildly doing odd things when receiving the time code. FM3's footswitches displays changed on their own to various random presets names. FM3 Edit block displays randomly would disappear and then reappear. If you watch...

Wish More MIDI PC and CC commands per scene

Having only one MIDI PC and CC command per scene is somewhat limiting. Competitive products can do up to eight. I have MIDI controlled amp and I'd like to add a couple MIDI pedals with FX8. Using the MIDI block takes up space that could be used otherwise. FX8 needs and should have more per...

Can FX8 configure pre and post be changed per scene?

Can FX8 configure pre and post be changed per scene? Obviously, pre and post is select per preset. But, can I change it per scene to move the FX loop in a different position or change series/parallel routing within the same preset? If not, this would be my wish for future FW :) Thanks.

Converting AX8 FX blocks to the FX8 (and back again)?

Is there way to create a preset on the AX8 (or FXII) with FX blocks only and send/covert it to the FX8? In other words, I'm hoping to create and test a preset on AX8 that mimics a 4 cable method FX8 rig with my MESA TA-30 combo. I'd use the AX8 amp block X/Y with a cab block to sub for the...
