Wish Ability to select which DynaCabs are loaded on the hardware

The FM3 Dynacab capacity is tapped out. The other units still have room for cabs but not the FM3.

It would be nice if we had the ability to delete a Dynacab we don’t use and replace it with another cab. Like moving a preset into an occupied space.

An example would be to exchange the 1 X 8 5F1 Tweed for the new Scholz cab.
80% of the internal Dynacabs i never use.
 
Hi guys, I just had exactly the same idea. The solution might be an extension in the Fractal Edit, with which you can split the individual DynaCab packages, edit them and put them back together to your personal custom package. So everyone can use what they need.
 
That's CabLab.
I thought you could only load purchased DynaCabs, edit and then load them to the FM3? That it also works for the DynaCab version, which comes with the firmware update, was not known to me. And I don't think it works with it the way I meant it.

Not really...

He's suggesting splitting out the various DynaCabs from the larger single file and then loading only the cabs you want.

I don't think it will happen, but that's a different discussion.
CabLab can do more than that, understood, but it can do that too, yes? You can save as many single cab "mixes" as you want, and mix them in AxeEdit or on the device.
 
Cablab exports IRs to the device. It is not capable of exporting Dynacabs. @Furti64 would like to select a subset of Dynacabs to be loaded into the device.
So you could still use them as dynacabs on the device? You're right that is a different thing, apologies for the misunderstanding.

My understanding is that dynacabs are big, and there's very limited room to add more (though fractal does seem to pull rabbits out of that hat occasionally), and removing any of the factory ones risks breaking both factory and user presets.

That's why on the three, I think it would be so cool to allow you to just pick one purchased Dyna-Cab at a time, even just the four mics currently used on board, to use on board....that would definitely tide me over till the four anyway. And since it would be a user Dyna-Cab, it would not effect factory presets.

It would only be factory ones... There are no 3rd party onboard DynaCabs.

Breaking factory presets is the biggest concern I see. If a user wants to break their own presets that's not much different than User IR management.

In any case, I seriously doubt this will be an option in the future.
 
Yes, that's true, I didn't have in mind that the factory defaults could be destroyed. It might be an option for users who don't necessarily use all the preferences. For example, bassists. They could then choose which factory cabs they prefer. Another idea would perhaps be to make the USB A port usable, and outsource the unnecessary cabins there, and then recharge them if necessary.
 
+1

I like the idea of dyna-cab exchange for more user IR slots!

The wish isn’t about more user slots. It’s for getting more Dynacabs available in the limited space of the FM3 by having the option of swapping them out. FAS made room for the new Dynacabs by taking some of the user space but what happens when they add more cabs to the FM9 and Axe? Or maybe they’re done adding Dynacabs to this generation? Who knows but you should make a wish yourself about exchanging Dynacabs for user slots.
