Since I own an FM9 I put this wish list in that category but this would apply to all Fractal units (FM3/AXE III). The big downside to using Fractal units including the FM9 is the hardware interface for controlling and getting to any of the myrid of parameters that one might tweak without using the computer software editor. This is especially true when for 'live' situations or times you just want to tweak a mainline parameter that would be on a real amp or fx pedal. The FM9 does have the Performance Pages where you can assign a parameter of an amp or fx block to one of the knobs below the units screen. However this is still fairly limiting especially if you have the unit on the floor for using the foot switches. You also have the ability to assign 16 external type controllers via midi cc to mapped parameters but that has a number of issues that currently make it not easy to use. Fractal really should update there units capability in some way so that some parameters can be controlled more easily and quickly. An external hardware assignable knob controller would go a long way to fix this issue/problem. This has been discussed in other categories of these forums but wanted to articulate better the issue on its own.
