Fender Tone Master Pro: Episode IV - A New Hope

On the AM4,

Add Amp block, select the amp you want - boom done.

Yeah, it's a step in the right direction for sure. I'm curious how/if they'll implement that kind of design ideas into the newer stuff.

I didn’t know that, I haven’t really looked at the AM4.

Love the concept though, it’s probably what I would go for if I was moving back to Fractal

Pull up an amp, then exit the amp block, then add a cab block, then connect the cab block to the amp block, then open the cab block, then open the list of cabs, then find the one you want, then exit the cab block, then add a reverb block, then connect the reverb block, then open the reverb block, then select a reverb, then close the reverb block, then add a tremolo block, then connect the tremolo block, then open the tremolo block, then select a tremolo, then close the tremolo block, then connect an output block, then play.

Need to adjust the EQ and the reverb level and the tremolo depth?

- Open the amp block, then adjust what you need, then close the amp block, then open the reverb block, then adjust, then navigate to the tremolo block, then adjust.


TMP - Pull up a Deluxe Reverb, then play.

Need to adjust the EQ and the reverb level and the tremolo depth?

- Tap on the amp, adjust everything you need.

Again, not a huge deal, not that I think the Fractal is bad, but a little QOL thing I enjoyed about my time using the TMP.

You said it right the first time. Different tastes. And as noted above, the AM4 considerably simplifies things. I often started with factrory presets on my FM9T, too, though. Which was easy and worked for me.

To me, the TMP, for its darn near Fisher-Price level of simple and easy, still feels half baked and incomplete. For another person I know, it's absolutely heaven. There's nothing to debate, and there never really was. They're different products suited to different guitar players. An AM4 and VP4 combo could (and very well may) cover me for over a decade to come, and it's already complete for what I value right now.

If thats ChatGPT's English Translation (chatgpd apparently), then wow its pretty terrible. We can't judge the quality of the input so I guess you can't completely judge the quality of the translation, but it really is laughable to read. This was peak, what is even going on here:

"And I don't ever plan to pay for AI unlike most of you who are already on Netflix and Amazon slop credit slavery and soon you'll either be replaced by AI or be forced to use to make your boss richer."

Why do I also get the vibe this person is a stones throw away from being a power user in the Plugin Piracy Thread.

On a side note, people saying that AM4 is much easier than FM3 are actually not telling the truth
It's literally the same design, same options. It's just shows a giant AMP on screen

Cab block being on the same block as an amp don't make much difference, the workflow on FM3 is great, the issue of "option paralysis" is still there, you have 70 plus options only in the amp block... it's not like them are not encouraging people to tweak.
It's a tradeoff I guess, you get best amp modeling but you also can spend 3 or 4 hours tweaking and not playing. Most people will forget to boost their hi gain amps though, those who never owned a fractal product
