    FM3 DSP Help

    Here is one of my presets without using any external pedals and it runs at 75% of the CPU. I spend most of my time playing in church which has high demands on reverb and delay and this does everything I need. You can't go wrong with getting an FM3. Compressor Pitch Drive (Covers stage 2 and...

    FM9-Edit really slow at higher CPU usage

    I've experienced the same lag in FM9-Edit (Mac version) when the CPU is running high. I first noticed it when I moved one of my AX3 presets to the FM9 and in the editor is showed 11% CPU but the hardware was flashing a CPU limit message. This is when I first noticed the editor responding slowly...

    Never used them before but looking at them you would need cables to convert your XLR or TRS outputs to RCA or 1/8 TRS. It looks like the right speaker has a link to the left speaker. I personally like to have my outputs direct to each monitor. There are lots of opinions on this forum, if you do...

    Where is usb-A?

    I just wanted to add a little sarcasm to the thread, but you never know what FAS is cooking up. The USB-A port has been a topic on these threads since the FM3 was released and it's not enabled. It's likely that the SoC board had a built-in USB port and FAS had no real future plans to use it...

    Where is usb-A?

    Don't sell your FM3's let, could FAS be planning a USB-A FM3 connection to the FM9 USB-B with midi control and audio to add 25% more compute to the FM9? ;););)

    If you could only have one...

    IMHO, If I could only have one it would be the AxeFx 3. I have both so I'm fortunate, but I would give up the FM3 and keep the AxeFx 3 if asked. Historically, the updates are more frequent and features come out on the AxeFx 3 before they hit the FM3.

    I have 3 scenes , first 2 scenes spillover delay works but scene 3 does not???

    What you're likely noticing in scene three is your feedback is short and your time is very short (144 ms) so when you switch scenes your delay effect is matching that setting and your spillover is very short which likely sounds like no spillover. Push your feedback up as a test and see if you...

    Q for those who also own an FM3: Ambient Sounds

    I own both and play 100% worship music these days. I really had to learn how to use the multi-tap delay, this block transends delay and reverb without the CPU overhead. Using the diffusor smears the delays into more of a reverb sound and having chorus in that block fills in the empty space...

    What's your gig strategy with the FM3? Here's mine (so far)

    Preset per song here but the same principle of 3-4 scenes (clean, rhythm (preamp CC boost), rhythm + (drive pedal), and lead if I need it). Each preset will mostly be a copy of the first one with tempo changes for time based effects. I'm playing in a worship environment 100% of the time now...

    I use the dual switch as stand in switches, one is for tuner and the second is for view + to switch views on the FM3. It allows me to quickly move views without having to hold down the pedal on the FM3 to switch views. The footswitch came from Amazon . The footswtich toppers also came from amazon.

    The Ventris is in a stereo loop, Output 2 R/L to Ventris In and Ventris Outs to Input 2 R/L I use it to save CPU mostly so I can add a few extra blocks in to my preset and there are a few presets on the Ventris that I like and haven't spent the time on making them on the FM3.

    Firmware Question

    Perform pages were added back in fw6 of the Axefx3 and I believe the FM3 has received some of the features updates like the DC-30 EF86 amp from fw 11. So it’s release could be impacted by the capabilities of the hardware or its related to the compiler bug mentioned last year. I personally like...

    USB connectivity problems

    the MacBook was a fresh install and so was the win10 build. All worked with my Axe3 without issue. why FM3 when I have a Axe3? Portability and easE but mostly because I can. It’s the same reason I still hold onto all my amps and guitars. I’m fortunate and grateful that I can do that.

    Revival drive + FM3

    I think you'll find that most folks here if they offload anything will more likely offload reverb or delay to something like an H9 verses the amp modeling.
