So far, I am really pleased with it. I'm upgrading from an FM-3 and an Axe Fx II so I know "the landscape" well. I'm impressed at how fast you can switch between a clean scene and a high gain scene in a preset by using 2 amp blocks. The FM-3 couldn't do it, but the FM-9 can do it as fast as stomping a Boss pedal. So far all I have set up is one custom preset with FAS Modern as the hi gain amp and CA3+ Clean for the clean channel. For a crunch tone, I'm just adding the SUPER OD model in front of the CA3+. For a floor based FX processor I think this one is light years ahead of anything by Line 6, Kemper or HeadRush. I'm going to hang onto my Boss GT-1000 though, because it does "the 4 cable method" perfectly with my Marshall JVM and really takes external pedals well.
