    Overdrive For Acoustic?

    I currently use a Fender Smolder Acoustic Overdrive Pedal in my acoustic trio (playing a Martin GP4CE direct). It does a good job of making an acoustic sound like an electric with crunch overdrive. I have been thinking about using my FM9 for the group (and playing some electric also.) I have...

    Dialing in a good low-gain OD tone

    Hey everyone: I'm having some difficulty dialing in a good low-gain tone - something that's relatively clean when picking lightly but gets gritty when you dig in. I'm looking to emulate the tone in this video: I play a 1992 Pensa-Suhr with 2 Suhr Michael Landau single coils in the neck &...

    FM3 Amp Rescue (Lounsberry Pedals) with demo

    I adding the Amp Rescue to the FM3, but also used cab sims and delay/reverb for the other examples: There are a few ways to describe the effect of the Amp Rescue, and it depends on whether you’re playing a clean or dirty signal. When playing clean, it’s as though a ‘flatness’ is removed from...

    REACTIVATOR by Hagerman Amps (pedal demo/review)

    I used the FM3 for effects and cab sims... I now realize why Hagerman Amps calls its latest true bypass pedal Reactivator – “it’s alive… it’s alive!” This is a low to moderate gain pedal, a two-transistor/two-triode overdrive, but its tube driven components maintain that ‘warm’ and realistic...

    Heart Muller (bass/lead OD) review with demo

    I thought I would post this here, as I used the FM3 for the amp/cab for bass (Ampeg), rhythm and lead (Diezel). Heart Müller, a true bypass pedal, originally was developed to be a bass overdrive. However, this latest version was tweaked in order to be used by a six-string as well. The accompany...

    All-In-One or Do you use Effect pedals as well?

    Hi Fractal Folks, I am in investigation mode before I purchase a FM3. Do most folks consider this an "all in one" solution and use it that way or do you incorporate effect pedals as well? Two examples would be a favorite overdrive pedal (Origin Revival Drive / JHS Morning Glory) or favorite...

    USA Pre Overdrive Useless after 12 o'clock Point? :s

    Hey all! Don't get me wrong with the title; I'm thoroughly enjoying the USA Pre (LD2 Yellow and Red, naturally ;D) but I've found - with both settings - that (unless I'm not listening closely enough) the Overdrive knob (second from the left in the Preamp sec.) doesn't do anything past noon. Am I...
