    FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

    Love my FX III, had the FM9 for about two months and JUST realized when copying some patches over form FX III to FM9 that the 64 Gibson Scout (one of only four amps I use - Jazz and blues - all clean or almost clean) is not in the FM9 . Surely (Yea, I know "don't call me surely") we can add...

    You've already had others reply to this, and by now you've probably already done whatever you're going to do so this is for the lazy like me. While I could have built a power cable with one of those angled plugs previously shown I just bought the premade left angle 5 foot'er (which comes off...
