I broke down and bought an FC6 so I could start using mine in live situations while I wait.
you notice a difference sound-wise from AX8 to FM3?Yeah, now I’m itching for an FC-6. I’ll probably still stick with the three switches on the FM3 and just keep this for my studio.
Coming from an AX8, this thing is ridiculously good. Sounds unbelievable.

ah - cool. I'm thinking of picking one up, just not sure the 3-switch thing will work for me, and getting an extension FC-6 would make it a bigger footprint than the AX8 which is perfect size for airplane carry-on. I'm interested to see how the 3-switches can be usedI haven’t received an FM3 yet. I picked up an Axe-FX III to use while I wait fir the FM3. But if the FM3 is anything like the Axe-FX III, it’s a huge improvement over the AX8. It’s hard to explain, but the modeling just sounds even more realistic. And the feel. damn does it feel good to play through.
Its amazing what you can do with 3 switches on Fractal products. You can also pick up a Roland FS7 fairly inexpensively to add additional switches.Yeah, now I’m itching for an FC-6. I’ll probably still stick with the three switches on the FM3 and just keep this for my studio.

You have chosen wisely.Sorry if this is off topic...
I tried a Line 6 HX Stomp. I thought it would hold me over until I got my hands on an FM3, but I just wasn’t connecting with it. I sold it the very next day.
So I decided to try something else. I guess you could say it’s ok.

I just did the same thing.. my III will get here on Wednesday
How do you like the pedal baby? I'll be in the market for a smaller power amp once I get my FM3. I'm considering this and the Seymour Duncan PowerStage 170.

Great choice. Having a III makes the wait much easier.

You're gonna love the III. It's absolutely amazing. The only reason I'm getting the FM3 is that I'm tired of carting around my rack for every gig. That stuff is getting old and I'm too old to keep it up. Looking forward to giving the III a permanent home in the man cave.
+1. I have had the AXE3 since it first came out. Best gear purchase i have made since the AX8. It is currently sitting it in a 6 space rack which is quite heavy though. I also have an FC6 in a floorboard along with a few other things I use for gigs. The plan is to replace the FC6 with the FM3 and then retire the AXE3 to the studio. This will greatly reduce what I have to bring to the gigs.You're gonna love the III. It's absolutely amazing.
