FM3 Firmware Version 3.02 Beta 1

Just installed 3.02, a bit of improvement in tone and feel over 3.01I believe. Only got my Fm3 yesterday after selling my Axe II. The difference in tone is huuuuge imo. So happy!

Go in your amp to you power amp section, find bias excursion and PI bias excursion parameters, set to 100% and compare it to the original. For me, that is the best thing we got in this beta! The excursion brings more clarity to pwr amp modelling and makes it quite a bit better for me.

I tried it on the DC-30 model and it took too much high end off. It felt better though. If I was just jamming by myself it would be great, but I think it folded over a bit too much to cut through in a live mix. And yes, I tried turning up the treble and reducing the high cut.

Ok so its the adjustable parameter they've changed.. not baked in the the amp code? Either way, sounds awesome. If Cygnus wasnt going to happen, I'd still be very happy.

I'll say this: I just got my FM3 and FC-6 on Feb. 19th. I am so happy with the sounds I am getting out of it! And I will be preaching the gospel of Fractal Audio at all my gigs here in Las Vegas.
I can't express how impressed I am, and how much I'm loving this thing!

After owning a big bunch of all the modelers available, since the first Behringer V-Amp, including VST Plug-ins, FM3 is the first that really feels and sounds like I always dreamed.

Hell yes it is.
My experience with modelers was the BOSS GT5 back in the mid 1990's (been playing pro since 1978). Then went back to a Marshall stack for a year. Then the Roland VGA7 modeling amp for a couple of years. Then back to tube amps. Then the Line 6 Vetta amp for a year or so. Then back to a real Bogner Ecstasy. Then I got a Helix in the first batch that Sweetwater had back in October 2015. Used that for 3 years. Then went back to tube amps with a Mesa Boogie TC 50 (which is AWESOME sounding).

But a lot of my gigs are "silent stages"...and even though I have a BOSS WAZA Tube Amp Expander and can run my "real" rig with no cab and just straight to monitors and FOH...it's still too damn big to drag through these Casino/Resorts in Vegas. There just aren't any venues with load in docks. lol

So last year I got a Helix stomp and made myself a pretty nice sounding pedal board rig. Sounds great.

But it is now my backup rig.

This FM3 is the shit! My only regret is that I didn't use Fractal Audio gear years ago.
But I'm here now! :)
 
I could be going crazy, Some of my amps were sounding different ,louder, cleaner ,mostly Marshall type .Went into global setting ,just spun down to power amp modeling ,and it was off. did that happen with beta, or was it a user mistake ,I don't remember turning it off.guess if it just me ,I guess I did ito_O thing are back to the tone I had:)
