    Behold: The New FM3 MK II Turbo

    I gave up on playing the guitar some time ago, but I still like reading the news, I like watching the quality of gear going up (along with the prices ;-) and all the progress with amps, modelers and so on. I saw FM3 mk2 on YT, and I thought - if it has dual amps, I'm gonna dust off the cases...

    Keven Eknes takes the FM3 for a quick spin

    Yet, with the humbuster logo on it. As someone pointed out - we know there's no benefit to plug it between guitar and a preamp. Maybe there was no regular guitar cables lying around, or the guy thought it nicely matches the guitar and the FM3 - who cares? :)

    Keven Eknes takes the FM3 for a quick spin

    "Those specific mids" - means: related to the specific amp the sub op was referring to. That's why I pointed out: the only way for me to recognize very specific mid frequencies of a certain amplifier, is to have one hooked to the cab standing behind me. And yes it can stand in front of me as...

    Keven Eknes takes the FM3 for a quick spin

    Are you really able to hear those specific "mids" in a youtube video? Man, there must be something wrong with my ears, my vocabulary, or both :). To me, "mids" are phenomenon I can experience only in a live situation (don't want to start another silly discussion - but yes, I mean: from a guitar...

    That's it, thank you! Third sample is a holy grail I sought since I bought my first AX8 (of course it was not possible to get even close to that, due to obvious reasons). When I really needed such quick transition (you're right this is extreme example...) I ended up using drive pedals in the...

    No, of course not. But 10 times from clean Recto channel to red Recto channel during one gig - can happen :) Yuck, you got it completely awkward.

    It does not to me, but it does not matter - the recording is inconclusive (for my assessment). Please kindly record 2 bars of straight eights played at around 140 BPM. Clean amp in one channel, high gain amp in the other. Could be palm muted, could be whatever you like. Switch with a foot while...

    No Powered version?

    I'm sure there is plenty of space inside this 3U enclosure. Do you guys remember how nicely 3rd party poweramp add-ons fit inside the toaster chasis? :) Those poweramps were tiny and sounded excellent. I'm sure there are crazy people who would squeeze small poweramps inside Axe Fx III just to...

    axe fx 3 in europe?

    With II XL+ being priced at €2,299.00, anything less is just a wishful thinking. 2499 - 2599 EUR seems more probable.

    Presenting... The Axe-Fx III

    Well, that's a pretty machine that goes "ping", you have there, sir. Brilliant, but completely redundant, as for me. I'm sure that the next evolutionary step in the AX8 line is about to happen, though. But not the AXEIII in floor format - that would be too cannibalizing... I'd bet for AX8+...

    Ax 8 and Pricing

    I haven't been around for the last couple of months and I think I've missed something :) if 1099$ was the regular price in US, when can we expect EU price update? 1099$ seems to be quite low, compared with 1217 EUR (excluding VAT...) Thanks for any info on that!

    Mic Type Not Available in the AX8???

    So why do we hear the difference when enabling mic/changing the type?

    AX8 connection via USB to AX8Edit

    Any other related software running? My AX8 Edit refuses to work, when for example Fractal Bot is active (and vice versa) - but that's typical, I'd guess.

    Tips for dealing with the audio drop out

    Doesn't matter. Some pairs of amps will switch faster, some slower, regardless of gain territory, and even - regardless of how close they are technically relaleted.

    Audio gap when switching presets

    Heck, another lucky guy! I hear annoying gap in presets' changes with just amp and cab, at less than 30% cpu usage. Although I must admit this varies strongly between different amp pairs. Some pairs are almost acceptable.
