No one else wants the ability to have more than two Drive or Mod blocks per presets like an M13?
You can already use more than two mod blocks in one preset.No one else wants the ability to have more than two Drive or Mod blocks per presets like an M13?

Hi! I wish the possibility to put the same pedal in the x-y function with different settings ...I've found two settings that i really like on BB pre ( dirty and lead ) but i can't put them in the same slot to use it in different scenes
The only thing you can do with the M13 that you can't do with the FX8 is run four drives at the same time. Who does that in real life?
I have had my FX8 for a few days now & I am very pleased with it. I really do think that it sounds great & that it is well thought out. I do not quite have it ready to use at a gig yet because I am still experimenting with various functions that I require to replace my current rig.
At present I use 2 amps, a Marshall JVM410H & a Hughes & Kettner Grandmeister 36, with a TC Electronics G Major 2 in a stereo set up. This is all controlled by an FCB1010 with midi. I hope & expect the FX8 to replace the G Major 2 and I am looking at ways to also make the FCB1010 redundant as I am trying to cut down on the amount of space that I need on the floor.
So the FX8 sends out Midi PC with each scene change and it works well. That will control 1 amp. I can assign 2 midi blocks which could sort out the remaining control requirements. However what the mid blocks require is for an actual footswitch action to get them to send a midi message (as far as I can tell). To fully control my rig I would like an option for the midi block to either send a message when a footswitch is actioned OR (and this is the wish list request) to automatically send a midi message when there is a scene change. This would give me a total of 3 midi messages that could be sent on each scene change along with 2 further messages with a change of X/Y. I would hope that a software change of this nature would be a simple task.
I realise that not everyone has a requirement for such detailed midi control and I suppose that it could be argued that it then becomes more like a midi controller BUT remember that the idea is to replace the FCB1010 (or such a device) therefore saving floorspace and it does not seem to be a major problem to solve in software so that is my request!

There aren't enough scenes available in the preset to accommodate every possible combination of drive and other effects. And even if there were, I'd never be able to remember which scene was which.
