The announcement thread said it IS a replacement for the AX8...So it looks as though the AX8 will be discontinued
Question is, is there any point in buying one if it will be discontinued?
The thing they are replacing it with, isn't a replacement for the AX8, but to be used with the FC foot controller
Just because it has only 3 buttons is not that big of a deal because you have both tap and hold AND layouts. Those 3 buttons are much more powerful and flexible.
Is this a riddle?How do you go from scene 1 to scene 4, then back to scene 1 with two taps using only one scene button?
Scene Toggle between 1 and 4.How do you go from scene 1 to scene 4, then back to scene 1 with two taps using only one scene button?

Where does the “with 2 taps” part come from? I don’t understand the intent of the question.No, it’s a question from someone who doesn’t own an FC or FM3.
I use it all the time. Take your foot off the switch and it’s fine.I had to shut off tap-hold on the AX8. Waaaay too finicky in the real world IMO.

On the AX8, you’re on preset ‘x’, S1. From there you tap button 4 for S4, then tap button 1 for S1...two taps. Having a button per scene seems much simpler to me.
The AX-8 has 11 foot switches and each one has tap/hold capability.So buy the FC6 alongside the FM3, you then have 9 footswitches. Which is one more than the AX8!

Yup, this modular type system means everyone's needs can be customizable and met.
Likely there will be a larger unit like a FM12 as well, but there are TONS of great options.
Cheap? No, but that's not why you are using FAS devices is it?
