So I have seen numerous posts about hx vs fm3 but Im in a different boat.
I originally got an hx stomp in June to utilize the 6 blocks as effects with my tube head. After discovering the convenience of being 85ish% there tone wise, without having to lug around my tube setup, I started using hx as a standalone.
Forward to today, FM3 was delivered and I am in love with this thing!
My question is this: Id like to utilize the hx stomp as a separate delay and/or backup while gigging. How would you use an hx with your fractal setup? is there an easier way? is this a cardinal sin? I have a Morningstar mc6 that I use to switch each block on/off on the hx. id like to continue to utilize the mc6 being it is a nice amount smaller than fractals controller.
If I keep the hx, how would I set it up through the fm3? via an effects loop of some sort? does it really matter if the delay comes in to the fm3 via pre and will that mess with the tone? Or does it not matter in the digital world?
Id start the trial and error process but my hx board is dialed really nice and don't want to rip stuff off. I'm also under the gun as far as unloading some stuff as my wife doesn't know about this lol. we are in the midst of buying a house and I can't seem to stop making unwarranted purchases..![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
