bummer they don't sell their IRs separately but I guess they have their "dynIR" secret sauce in there that needs the hardware - maybe replicable in FM3 somehow - perhaps try futzing with the speaker page settings. I was noodling today with an amp/cab w 3rd pty IR and found that choosing a compatible IC but then turning the hi / lo resonance down to 1/2 or 1/3 of stock settings (and removing hi/lo cut in the cab block) gave me the awesome sound I was looking for - this worked for me on other IR/IC combos as well as I tend to find the stock lo / hi res settings on the stock ICs too much.
Thanks for the tip! I'll give it a go, I've got some time to kill anyway before the cab m arrives. Yeah, it's a bummer you need the hardware for their ir's. Kinda like you need fractal hardware for their modeling.
I don't know that it's possible. I don't think they let you use anything outside of their ecosystem. Unless I'm missing something?
Not sure I get this comment. Keeping the discussion about IR’s which is what I thought this thread was about, Fractal uses the standard .wav format. They just need to be in a the common sysex format which can be done easily and free with something like Cab Lab.Kinda like you need fractal hardware for their modeling.
Ah, got it. Maybe I'll give that a shot with some of my cabs in the wos plugin
Thanks for the input. I mentioned before that you need two notes hardware to use their cabs. Their ir's are proprietary and can't be exported in the traditional sense. I'll see what I can do to capture the cab from the wos plugin but I'm not sure what the results will be. It may lose some of the mojo but I'll give it a shot.
I was referring to, and correcting your comment which seemed to be inferring or conflating that Fractal also uses a proprietary format for IR’s. Obviously “modeling algorithms” are going to be proprietary. Otherwise It would be a very, very generous business model.

I was referring to two notes ir's and fractal's amp modeling. Yes, both proprietary. I do realize that fractal's cabs use an open format so to speak.I was referring to, and correcting your comment which seemed to be inferring or conflating that Fractal also uses a proprietary format for IR’s.

This is great to hear. Thanks for the reply! The reverb on board is a bonus for cpu overhead, though I'll be using it in the fx loop and I don't prefer to run my reverb before my delays. Unfortunately I won't get that benefit.
Sorry, this is a VERY late reply… but are you using the CAB M+ as an effects loop block of the FM3, bypassing the FM3 cab, and this works awesome?
Or do you disable the Power Amp section of the [AMP] + disable the [CAB] block?
Thanks for the input!
