I am new to the forum and looking for any and all help I can get. I mainly use the Fractal stuff for live gigs. I have had a lot of success with my AX8 using the Dumble amp (and sometimes the Deluxe Reverb) and I bought the FM3 to replace my AX8 (the AX8 was supposed to be a back-up). For the life of me I cannot get the sounds I'm looking for out of the FM3. I emailed back-and-forth with Mark Day who suggested I try the forum. I play a very old PRS with dragon II humbuckers exclusively. My band uses QSC stuff exclusively as well. I send my AX8 to front of house and utilize a monitor or in-ears.
The issue is this: I need the best clean amp possible from the FM3 and good overdrive pedals that I can turn off and on as I play. I need to change whatever global settings and/or amp settings necessary to do this with my PRS. I mainly play top 40 and soft rock style stuff. Have an FC-6 as well and I was hoping to have three scenes on my FM3, clean, crunch, and lead, and use the FC-6 to turn effects on and off. I know this is a vague long forum question but can anybody help me at all?
