I went to the FM9 and put my AXEFXIII in my studio but I'm now back to the AXEFXIII in my rack for gigging. To me, its more simple and I have access to whatever I want with less limitations.Res holder 2 days off from last shipping confirmation here. I just can't wait to downsize my rig. Will likely try to sell my axe 3 and fc 12, use the same pedalboard, and buy a 2 space rack for wireless and power amp. Oh the simplicity!
Thank you! I have had the FM9 since day 1, and am looking to upgrade for the tone match and features the FM9 can't do. Also, coming from a Helix, I like the idea of the 12 footswitches more than i like adjusting to the 9I sent this link to someone on FB who wanted to make such a trade.
I have both. I like them both. I wouldn't think of doing without either.
That is kinda how I use mine. Added some MIDI CC via a pair ExpressionIO boxes to get more control switch, pedal, and slider capability, and get CC pedal info available during recording. Can theoretically run 4 amps at a time, too....I have both. I had a kneejerk reaction the day the FM9 was offered and got on the list. Fast-forward, got the availability email and bought it.
When it arrived, I looked at it and said 'what the hell am I going to do with since I have an AXE III and an FC12'? It sat in a corner for 2 months while I pondered.
I now use the FM9 as a pedalboard for the Axe III and FC12. Drives, compressors, filters, PEQ's, rotary all go into the Axe III input and the FC12 switches scenes and channels. Works great and off-loads some high CPU items from the Axe III.
Let me know if you're interested!I have an FM9 and I’ve definitely considered trying to make that trade
wish I had one! Mine's an MKI, before the lgo got the custom LED upgradeIf anyone is interested in trading their AxeIIIMkII for my absolutely mint FM9, please PM me.
