Thank you so much Frank for this amazing job - for sure a huge effort !! Finally not clear to me, what i love more - The really damn good factory sounds, or your fantastically outstanding playing 😊🤘 Looking forward for your next updates - Have a good time !
One of the best players on YT....!!! Very nice and clear in every music style! But just a question: is the FM 3 capable, to do the ambient and synth sounds or must it be the FM 9 ......regarding the memory..... Thanks a Lot!!
Great video. It is clear how much you like music. I am on the waiting list for the FM9. Hope to get a mail soon that it is available to buy. In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy the presets from your video's. Now I understand what people mean when they say that this unit has the best presets out of the box. I will be watching / listen to all the 383 presets from your video's. I hope Fractal will compensate you for this excellent work. They will sell more units for sure due to your excellent work.
You are a amazing guitar player! Thanks for your time and to give as a such a great time appreciating the presents and your solos! Keep going I just subscribed now!
Just bought the fm9 about an hour ago and cannot wait. Sounds like it's going to be a big improvement over my current axe fx II. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Great playing by the way!
I just subscribed, I loved this video and holy crap you're a good guitar player!! Do you just plug the fractal into a speaker cabinet or an amp? Does the original fractal have the same presets as the latest one? Thanks Frank, I look forward to checking out your other video's.
Thanks a lot Oliver. My Fractal goes straight into my audio-interface. Then into the DAW. I'm using my ADAM A7X Studio monitors. I'm showcasing the newest Fractal Audio factory presets (Axe-Fx 3, FM3, FM9). Cheers Frank
Hi Frank thank you for the time and effort you put into making this video for us, awesome guitar playing throughout. Would you provide the volume setting on you guitar generally throughout. I have just got my FM9 and was a little disappointed in the sounds I was getting. I use a PRS P 24 guitar with the volume rolled off to say to 60%. But even at full bore with input gain as suggested and levelling outputs playing through FRFR cab in mono I just can’t get close to your sound. I would appreciate any guidance to how you arrive at such a good sound. Cheers 😊
Hi dude, my pickups are low output. When I need a cleaner tone I reduce the volume on my guitar like on a real amp. Tell me one specific preset that sucks. Cheers Frank
Sorry dude. No tabs. Sometimes I play famous guitar riffs and sometimes I create my own riffs or musical ideas. I always try to create something that makes the preset sound good. Cheers Frank
The FM3 is fantastic. Slightly less possibilities compared to the FM9 or Axe-Fx3, but the same incredible sound/presets...and so portable....love it :)
Many thanks to you Franck for this great exploration - could you tell us how are we getting the sound ? from monitor speaker ? thanks by advance ! Cheers from France !
Thanks man. You can get a great sound from Monitor speakers, but for than Amp-like feeling you need some good FRFR speakers like Red Sound MF10. Cheers :)
Hi Frank, first of all your video is awesome. I just bought a used FM3 because your video was too good! Unfortunately my sound really suck compare to yours. I reset the Fm3 to be sure and I am connected to my Audio Interface to play on my monitor and it's really not like your sound from factory preset. Did you change someting in the EQ or anything else?
Hey dude, I'm sorry if you're not happy with your sound. Sometimes I change the amount of reverb or the delay mix. But nothing dramatic. On the Axe-Edit photo in the video you can see my settings. How does it sound with headphones?
@@FrankSteffenMueller I did not try it becuase I don't have quality studio headphone for the moment. I was only running on my studio monitor, directly usb with reaper or with 2 xlr cable direct in my soundcard. But the sound is very muddy and miss dynamics when I used factory preset compare to yours
Hey, here the same. My sound really suck compare to yours. My gear: FM9, Gibson Les Paul Standard and Koss Porta Pro headphones. The sound here is very low.
Excellent video! You help me with a question. I have a slight background noise on my fm9 (like in your video when you finish a note). It feels a lot on input 1. When I connect my guitar to input 2 or 3, the noise is more acceptable. Is this normal?
Hi Cristian, I have almost no background noise. Sometimes I have very little or no noise gate in the input and when I use a compressor I have more noise. But this is of course no comparison to a real amp with pedals etc.. The unit itself is noise-free!
Excellent video! a doubt. Why when I use these factory presets in my FM3 with headphones or in a FRFR box, sounds are opaque and closed, and not the same as those in your video?
Hi Elbe, at least it should sound pretty close. What headphones and FRFR do you use? Which cables and what guitar? Can you send me a video/soundfile to Muellmusic@gmail.com
They don’t EXACTLY sound the same now do they? Can you blend a cleanish amp with dirty on the fm3? Serious question. Can you even achieve that sound by a any means?
The FM3 is limited by the CPU, which means that you can't use 2 amps at the same time, for example. For the Factory presets this means that for CPU hungry presets the FM3 and/or FM9 versions are slightly "modified".
are all these direct presets with in the FM3 Mk II Turbo Amp Modeler/FX Processor? I'm on the fence between the FM3 Mk II Turbo Amp Modeler/FX Processor or Boss GT1000 ... any thoughts?
thanks much for the reply ... you're an amazing and highly gifted guitarist ... definitely making me take more time before making any decisions between the FM3 and GT1000; mostly into ambient and David Gilmour type tones; thanks again!
