FM9 into Tube amp FX return and also to FOH. Power amp/Cab modelling on/off Confusion.

[Steevp]

Hi there,

I'm new to the Fractalverse, so forgive me if I'm not getting something..

I like to use a tube amp and 4x12 on stage for my personal monitoring, I can't let go of the visceral feel of that combination.. Previously I have been using a Headrush Pedalboard, I took a feed from the IR input to the on stage amp, the signal then passed through the IR on went to the FOH. It worked fine.

Small gigs I just use the 4x12 large gigs rely on the FOH feed..

Now I have an FM9 there are global options for Power Amp Modelling and cabinet modelling to be turned off for use with a power amp/real cab.. this is fine I appreciate the option, and I have been able to get a great sound through the onstage amp with them both off.. but now there's no power amp modelling going through the IR/Dynacab for the FOH and that signal sounds all wrong..

If I switch the Power Amp modelling back on the FOH returns to a good sound but the onstage amp gets very boomy..

I guess I'm going to have to leave the Power Amp/Cab modelling on and EQ the feed to the stage amp?

What is everyone else doing?

Run two amp blocks and one has a cab block while one doesnt?

You can also turn power amp modeling in the individual Amp blocks.

You may need to run 2: one for your power amp (also routing the before the Cab block) and one for FOH.

You might want to consider a solid state amp instead...
