    FM3 Firmware Version 6.00 beta 3

    Hi all, first post in ages. I had my FM3 (latest beta fw) become unresponsive during a set last night and had to power cycle. Never had issues on 5.03 I know this is not enough info to be helpful but just thought I'd share as general feedback. Thanks! As an aside, I had one of those old school...

    Disaster Area Midi Baby 3 - Toggle scenes?

    It can step through different values with each press so I'd say toggling will be fine, but I don't know about remembering the states...Sorry I'm not a MIDI guru so hopefully someone can be more helpful.

    MIDI CC to turn blocks off & on?

    Ok I have it working sending alternating values 0 and 127 thanks. It'd be a nice feature to have the FM3 take care of toggling to avoid getting out of sync with the FM3 and thus requiring a double tap, but that's not a priority. Thanks for your help.

    Fixed Scene revert using MIDI CC

    Hi all, not sure if this is intended function or not. Scene revert does not work via MIDI. When using MIDI CC and value to select scene 1, any previous changes to effect states are kept. When using an FM3 switch to select scene 1 it reverts to saved state of scene. Just wondering if this is...

    Hi all, I can get the midi baby to turn off FM3 effect blocks by sending the assigned CC, but I can't get the next tap to turn the block back on again, ie. toggle the on/off state. MIDI always makes me feel unintelligent. What am I missing here? Thanks everyone!

    Thanks so much, I'll get to work removing it from as many presets as possible. Might wait for the revisions and extra bank. Loving the tones and all the thought going into this pack. I'm coming from AX8 (Axe II and Ultra before that!) and feel that the FM3 is a significant upgrade.

    Presets MASTER THREAD - AustinBuddy 1000+ LIVEGOLD TonePack - Partial Update (Bank 1 Marshalls) for Cygnus X3 firmware update now available

    @Rex I figured out the issue. I think it's something to do with monitoring out of Output 2. I have selected Output 2 to copy Output 1 so I can use the 1/4" outputs for monitoring via Output 2 on all presets. As the Live Gold presets have the Output 2 block inserted in the chain, I am getting the...

    My favourite new power amp! Seymour Duncan Power Stage 170

    Yek, do you still feel that the Fryette Power Station with neutralised resonance settings outperforms the solid state amps with resonance settings engaged? I have a PS, used to have a Matrix and am tempted by the convenience of the SD PS 170, but not if the Power Station blows it out of the water.

    Reamping - how to correct latency of reamped track?

    Yes I'm using Axe FX as USB soundcard for easy (in theory) reamping. I have an apogee duet, not sure if that would help with a better reamping process? Would that allow me to monitor and reamp live in the mix somehow?

    As I understand it, the new IR capture process allows simultaneous capture of the mic/preamp signal and also the errors of the poweramp connected to a speaker load. Why not just capture the errors and use that as a kind of inverse IR to correct the poweramp into that cab?

    Of course I read that from the man, but what about the suggestion of using a flat cable to capture a null IR on one side, then the compensation component would could be an IR placed before the real cab to cancel out it's inaccuracies? Maybe I'm still way off.
