How do I load a fasBundle in my FM3?

[Mats Nermark]

I want to try Leon Todd's fx but they are in a format (fasBundle) that my FM3 does NOT recognize.
How do I deal with this?

Cheers,

Mats, I just did this with my AXE3 and I already forget. I put Leon's Marshall bundle(preset w/ it's cab) in the 3. I believe I just dragged it into the open Preset Tool, where you can load up any preset(s). It allowed me to straight overwrite the current preset and it's user cab position or pick where I wanted either of them. I believe it defaults to whatever preset number you are currently on, so be careful not to overwrite something you want to keep.
Try that, I believe I fumbled my way into it.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

I tried a number of things and when I dragged the preset from Finder onto the preset name, it loaded. For some reason it loaded to the same preset number where it was originally stored by the person who created the preset, so like you said, caution when saving is advised.

Cheers,

Let me revisit what I did and I'll update the post later.

Mats, I figured it out. Go to the Preset TAB, not the Preset Tool as I was mistaken about. Import the bundle from its PC location and this window pops up.
The pink PICK button is what allows you to overwrite any preset and Cab location of your choosing. This is how it works on a Axe3. I assume it is the same on a FM3.

I'm not sure, but if they are not compatible, does Fractool convert them to FM3 as a bundle, or will it allow you to separate the content? A question for those more knowledgeable.

The FM3 doesn't import or export Preset/Cab Bundles. Only the AXE3 & FM9.

Thanks. Mats, let me know if you need the bundle separated. I own both if you don't.

Thank you for the offer. If I need it, I will call upon you.

Support for Preset-Cab bundles has been added to FM3-Edit in our latest beta version. This will be released with the next FM3 firmware.

Then we can look forward to this, eh?

I recently re-did all of my Rockman presets. They sound just like the X100!
They require user cabs on the FM3, so I'll share them as an incentive when we launch the new "Preset Cab Bundle" feature in FM3-Edit.

I tried today, without success... And I have the very late version.

Fumbling my way into it...the way I learn everything on my FM3...then I act like I unlocked the Rosetta Stone of Fractal!

I was able to import the bundles from Leon Todd. What version of FM3 Edit are you using and what version of firmware?

My mistake was to use the bot... Thanks for your interest !

I take it your all sorted then? The bundles are nice because you've got the associated IR loaded, but they are a bit cumbersome because the system has to do a complete scan after each one.
