I received my FM9 (my first Fractal product) a few days ago after a five month wait (not so bad, really).
I was not surprised at all about the fantastic sounds that the unit offers. It’s excellent…as advertised.
But there were two things that came as very welcome surprises:
1) I hear people talk about the steep learning curve. While it’s not as easy to use as an HX Stomp or Quad Cortex; I’m definitely not scratching my head. And the factory presets are really good…so I’m not slummin’ it while I learn the ins and outs.
2) The mid to high gain amps clean up exceptionally well with all my guitars’ volume knobs. The 800 and Rectifier, for instance. Nothing fizzy. No sudden drop off. Tapers beautifully. Can’t tell you how big of a plus this is for me (you probably know, lol). I’m sooooo happy about this.
Awesome unit. I’m very happy. Thanks guys!
