Everything you've always wanted to know about LEVELS (III, FM3, FM9)

The internal dynamic range is more than 1400 dB. You’re not going to run out of headroom anytime soon.

not 384db? i thought internal floating precision was 64 bits

64-bit floating-point would give way more than 1400 dB of dynamic range.

Can this be a sticky? Maybe also include in the OP a gif or quick video that shows EXACTLY what "tickling the red" looks like in Fractal language as approved by FAS? That'd be awesome

INPUT 1 GAIN

• The Axe-Fx III provides a parameter to adjust ALL presets for variations in guitar output level: Setup : I/O : Input : Input 1 Gain. It trims the level of Input 1 before the start of the grid so, unlike the A/D Input Level parameters, it has affects blocks such as the virtual amplifier.
• The FM3 doesn't provide this parameter.

Hi Alexander, FM3 has now this parameter (fw 7.00)

Thanks for the OP, very useful.
