This is the correct response.Quad what..?

This is the correct response.
Both the user’s initial comment and my response were just in jest.Competition drives innovation though. Ignoring the competition, even if they appear to be behind, is not the way to go.
Bringing forth suggestions based on a competing product is not because we dislike Fractal or think they're inferior. Rather the opposite, it's because we LOVE Fractal that we want to see it become even better. Why would you not want even better Fractal products?
Fractal does not knee jerk react to what the market might be doing on any given day/week/month/year and thank god for that.Given the imminent release of the more powerful quad cortex, will Fractal release a more capable FM3 that can run multiple amps etc so it can compete with the new generation of floor modellers?
I think this is my biggest hesitation for buying the FM3, I would be pretty pissed if a year from now some sort of updated model comes out and that definitely happened with the Axe FX III. Of course the older model still works fine, but it would just bug me lol
When I say things like this, my wife says, "Your sentence has an incorrect subject. What you mean to say is, "I would allow myself to be bugged by this."it would just bug me lol
Because it's like they made a new product or updated product to intentionally counter/improve/enhance the things that were wrong with prior product, and it happened so quicklywhy? how much is worth one year of tone greatness for you?
can't live with em, can't live without em!When I say things like this, my wife says, "Your sentence has an incorrect subject. What you mean to say is, "I would allow myself to be bugged by this."
I also know the counter to this how Apple and phone/tech companies release new phones, laptops, tablets, etc... once or twice a year and you don't have to buy each new unit, but idk something about guitar gear feels different when it comes to that
it won't sound worse, but possible problem is if a new model came out within a year that had some noticeable improvements or upgrades and you want to get it because those improvements may directly benefit your workflow, then the FM3 used market prices drop and you spend alot more money in the long run. My opinion anywaysI'm pretty sure the fm3 wont start sounding worse when a new version is developed... can't say the same for my old, slow and cluncky iphone
That is the heart of what Fractal does. It’s how we got the FM3 in the first place. And it’s how we’ll get the next great thing. If that bugs you, you’ll be happier with a Helix.Because it's like they made a new product or updated product to intentionally counter/improve/enhance the things that were wrong with prior product, and it happened so quickly
They pretty much still support ALL of their products. Got trouble with an ultra, just give them an email or a call.....Well, since I just got my FM3 not long ago, I certainly hope they do NOT introduce a MkII anytime soon. That would seriously piss a lot of people off. As for the QC, it will have some strengths vs the FM3 and probably be a great product. But my FM3 won't be going anywhere, as long as they continue to support it. Come on, Cygnus!!!
I agree that Fractal is leading the pack quality wise (I have an axefx 3) - what I’m curious about is if Fractal may feel the ‘perceived’ limitations of the FM3 compared to new floor modellers in relation to not being able to run amps in parallel and number of effects etc may lead to a newer version of the FM3
