A lot of people will disagree with my hardware modeler ranking

Not sure there’s a forum that exists that “no shenanigans” is a thing.

Every forum has its own distinctive flavor of shenanigans. The trick is finding the place that is compatible with your personality.

If fractal can improve the gui they would kill the market. Maybe not touchscreen needed but get rid of the 1990s vhs control buttons and look and a brighter screen and knobs on switches like c/ temp

He would have to completely change his business model if he wanted to dominate the market in sales. Other than that, Fractal is already generally recognized as the king of the hill.

Well the interface needs work in 2024/25. And I think knobs on the switches is a no-brainer going forward will any modelers

He won’t do jack shit to the Timbuck market. He just can’t seem to penetrate that market.

brighter screen

I can see the screen just fine on my FM3 in broad daylight. I actually keep it very low in the house.

This is an FM9 with zero cover from the South Florida sun, across the street from the ocean. The glare is worse looking straight down on it like this, but the scribble strips are clear as a bell regardless what angle you're looking at it from.

And before anyone says anything about the dirty FM9, blame this guy-

LOL. He looks pretty innocent to me!

While I am willing to entertain the idea that someone else's guitar rig might be different than mine, and they may still be an OK person , I don't trust people who don't like dogs!

Same goes in reverse, I don't trust people that dogs don't like!

Dogs, cats, and pets in general are life.

Oh.... big time!

Just to put this in perspective, can someone post a touring guitarist on a big stage using ONLY a 3 button digital amplifier?

Yep. The late Todd Bishop used an FM3.

It’s actually very straight forward and low tech.. I enjoy its simplicity ..

When did it happen that all these heavy shredders became the benchmark for testing whatever guitar equipment?

 

[fiftyshadesofslay]

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to accept stupid as fuck thumbnails like that

I think the OG gear demo guys will always be the benchmarks, everything else that's come after is people throwing their hat in the ring because it works. I'm a metal/gear nerd, I'm not sure I've ever seen one of this dude's videos before, but he's got 12k views in 1 day.

If you demo it, they will come. I was looking at my YouTube analytics the other day after Blabbermouth used one of my videos in an article, the majority of my views/subscribers have come from people searching for gear and every video that mentions a piece of gear by name has quadruple or more views than any other videos on my channel, aside from some oddities. I don't even make videos that are engaging or from the mindset of getting subscribers, they're usually done in 2 minutes for something we're talking about here or because I was stoked about something.
