Where did you get a tight switch?

Where did you get a tight switch?

I was wondering the same thing... Not familiar with that one.

Performance page?

 

[unix-guy]

Performance page?

It's the Global Performance Page (check upper right)...

I don’t use the Performance Pages much. Can you apply a custom title to the control? Maybe he’s just named the TS9 Amp Boost as Tight?

I don't recall... I only use a single control (Input Gain) but I also wondered about that.

Guys, I didn't do anything "custom". Just go to preset 101 and hit the right Page button. The Mesa Triple Crown has a tight switch, so I assume that's why it's there.

Huh. I’ve missed that. Cool find. Thanks!

Just did a little test - in FM9 Edit, on the amp block's Ideal tab, the Input Boost toggles the Tight Switch on the FM9.

That's crazy, I went all thru my Axe-FxIII last night and could never find it and just now found it on my FM9 here at the practice room.

just go into the performance page rename it tight and save delete the 6 character Switch txt and space

I will post my experience here. I updated to this beta this week. While the improvements are fantastic, using the software editor became impossible, with scene and preset changes taking 3-4 minutes each.
I am very much looking forward to the final release of this firmware, but I have reverted to 1.0 in the mean time.

I am on a M1 Mac if system configuration helps anyone. Most of my presets are Around 70-75%

The labels are editable?

 

[yek]

Yup.

 

[unix-guy]

Yup.

Learn something new every day

Probably since I only currently use a single control on Global Performance Page I haven't explored...

Suggestion: Rename the controller labels (per @yek & @unix-guy) to Spkr Compress. You might discover this will solve the truncation issue, if the controllers are editable as was mentioned in previous posts.

I rolled back the 2.0 beta version.

Any thoughts on when the official 2.0 will be available?

The engineer who works on the FM9 is in the middle of a deep optimization project prompted by observations about this beta. After some patience, I expect you'll be rewarded nicely.

Thank you very much!! I am patient and appreciate Fractal a ton. American designed and made in NH - comes with firmware updates. Who can beat that?
