Fractal Audio Axe Fx IV Product Imminent??

[SeeD]

It is fairly long stretch. The AM4 was a great pivot that will keep the current fires burning, I'd think?

I need more then 4 blocks, but I`m sure the AM4 is a cool unit

A long time to build up some muscle memory for all dem buttons we gotta push to move a block!

Yes sir! I did that for 8 or I think 10 years

I see that completely. I could get by with 4 blocks using probably 3,4 presets tops 99% of the time.

"next gen" is kind of a misnomer at this point. The new one will do more things in different ways. Any sonic differences will be no more/less than whatever the next firmware update might have been on the "previous gen". What's a sonic difference on a firmware update you ask? Oh, well that's when...

Bring on the IV.....

The sounds continue to be so good it's like splitting the world's tiniest hairs.

Super for folks that don`t need more blocks. But I like to use 2 amp blocks, and that is a no go on the AM4
And I would like a Capture option on divice

Not enough for me to throw away 8 years of muscle memory reps!!!

Just Put A ToneX In The Loop (TM).

Would add latency?
I don`t own a ToneX. And that would add more things to keep an eye on ( I don` t like that) I like simple things now a days

I theorize it takes no longer than 2 pages on a product thread before someone mentions captures. I call it NAM’s law.

I’m on a launch version FM9 and constantly hit the CPU cap as I like having the delay block, Multi-Tap delay, and Plex delay all available in my presets. I use all 3 regularly. I’ve considered going with a III, but if the IV is coming soon, I’d rather wait for it.

Option to make captures or just run them?

I've used a tonex one replacing fractal sims and gotten good results that way.

Low cost, top level accuracy, and it allows you to use snapshots of your own amps within fractal units, among others.

For the record, I think it's a terrible idea.

Layout, select the block, page right, page right, turn knob one click right, execute.

Because clicking and dragging is for wimps

I like both, but I read that Cliff said NAM player option would come in new Hardware, if and when that happens

The realerness is sub-atomic.

I imagine a FAS capture utility would be really good given the insane horsepower available, I'd only buy it if you could use as many as you want like quad cortex. it would be cool if you could have a pedal in the loop and it can run a utility to eq match it and copy the distortion, when it's easy to use it will get used alot. I sold qc because models are crap but kept kemper cause it's so fast. it's a good thing afx3 holds value so well tho to fund the new one
