    Oh I don’t doubt that at all. Seemed quick out of the public beta phase to me. No doubt the months in dev and test is the reason for the smooth launch! 👍

    No global blocks on FM9 deal breaker for Axe III user

    I can totally see this feature as being utilized more on the floor units (if it was available) for the small to medium venue people. Seems like it is a good practical use case. I wonder how often the larger venue players who use the III really need to make adjustments according to the room...

    Plus we need to remember that Cliff said he thought it could be done on all the products but stopped short of a guarantee. Maybe it’s taking a little extra massaging to make it work, if at all.

    Pitch - Virtual Capo Sound

    Maybe post your preset? Someone might have a suggestion or two depending on placement, tracking, other settings etc… On the string tension for actual tuning, I have started going a 1/2 gauge up per semi-tone downtune, and get great results for feel. 10 = standard 10.5 = 1/2 step down 11 =...

    Not a Bug Virtual Capo Odd Behavior?

    [UPDATE] Fixed, not a bug. Set the delay time the same (with tap tempo) across channels. Not sure why this preset was changed from the others with the VC. I must have messed it up along the way. Leaving this post up in case anyone else has the same brain fart… Thanks for the quick catch...

    Yeah, me too. I go primarily direct myself. I put a xitone wedge behind me for some stage volume and away I go… I just felt that presentation neglected a sector of players that is not small. In fact, there are probably more non-mic’d players out there than those that are direct. For every...

    Best "Amp In The Room" Counterpoint Yet?

    I dunno… That video seems to totally discount small club players that sometimes don’t even mic their cabs. In those cases you simply cannot say the amp in the room tone doesn’t matter. Because it’s literally all you have. Otherwise it’s a cool video tho. I like his stuff.

    Thanks man much appreciated! Not without its flaws, but we had fun. Gave a little more confidence with using the VC as well. Never used it that much before then. When I have some time, I’ll try to cut up another one. Did that one on the plane ride home 🤣.

    Pitch Block Help (Solved)

    Have you tried putting the pitch block in parallel? For harmonies, I have had a little better luck in that configuration. I’ve only put in series for drop tunings (virtual capo). Worth a shot… Not in front of my unit but IIRC I think you’ll want the mix at 100% and adjust the level accordingly?

    Helix update. Stacked snapshots - would be great for the FM3!

    Agree… It seems you still can work this in as is, if you really needed it now. What’s the difference of reordering the scenes per preset then still increment by 1 vs setting up the switch increment order differently per preset? Maybe a little more work but same end result. Either way you...

    Same here… Once the other bugs are squashed I’m anxious to install the new FW and try just for the VC. The latency was always the deal breaker for me. You could always notice it especially with quick chugs on low notes. I know you can’t totally eliminate it but can’t wait to try…

    Just a Simple observation

    Think about the physical profile of Out 1 & 2 on the FM3. Apply that that to the rest of the encoders... If people wanted to have higher knobs, they can easily add them. Other way around is a little more difficult. Anyway, enjoy! Great product! Wait, no. Awesome product! Side story...
