Hi,
I'm new to the FM3 and I'm currently trying to figure out how to translate the things my current rig can do to the FM3, especially when it comes to the reduced number of footswitches.
Currently I use a Voodoo Lab GCX and Ground Control Pro to switch my amps' channels and different effects.
In detail the 8 loops are as follows:
1. Tuner out --> without return, so it mutes the signal
2. Fulltone OCD
3. Compressor
4. Chorus
5. Delay
6. Solo Boost
7. Midboost of the amp
8. Clean/Lead on the amp
And I have 3 presets that I use that have the following effects engaged:
1. Wet clean: 3-4-5 8(Clean)
2. Rhythm: 2 8(Lead)
3. Solo: 2-5-6 8(Lead)
So it's pretty basic and simple as far as I'm concered, but having access to all the elements is great and sometimes necessary.
If I work these into three scenes and 3 Footswitches, how do I access the tuner?
I also sometimes need Chorus on Dirty tones.
How much can I achieve with the FM3 alone? Do you guys think a FC6 will be necessary?
I've looked at other Footswitch options. But if I understand correctly the Ground Control Pro doesn't really work
well with the Axe and if I spend money on something else I might as well get the FC6.
