I am looking at the FM9 to be able to run a PRS with Piezo guitar into it and run two separate signal chains. Here is what I am thinking so far.
Magnetic pickups in input 1 and then out to the FOH. This would have it's own signal chain with everything in it that I need for amp, cab and effects.
Piezo pickup into input 2 then out to FOH from output 2. This would have a little compression and a couple of other light effects on it.
Both of these would either be sent back to IEM or tapped off at the back of the FM9 and into IEMs.
Here are some questions that I have not been able to answer from the documentation that I have read.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide in getting my head wrapped around this.

- How can I setup a solo boost for my magnetic pickup chain? I know I can turn on a stomp pre or post amp in the signal chain. I am more curious as to how the configuration of the footswitches would be setup to where I can click one switch to boost then again to turn it off.
- Does the FM9 have anything in it for acoustic processing that would be similar to a Fishman Aura? That is what I currently use on my Piezo output.
- I would like to be able to click on a preset and have the two signal chains like I mentioned above and then possibly be able to step on that same switch for a solo boost and then again to turn that off.
- I may possibly want to setup a boost for the acoustic signal chain as well.
- I want to be able to step on another switch to switch to a different preset.
- I typically use maybe 4 or 5 tones in a night with varying degrees of gain from completely clean to the higher end of medium gain. I would have all of these presets setup almost identically with both magnetic and acoustic signal chains. This should allow me to change to any of them and have the acoustic chain where I want it.
- I change from clean to overdriven within the same song often.
- I use acoustic with both clean and overdriven sounds within the same song. I sometimes use both at the same time when on a clean channel.
