Fractal Audio Systems AM4 - Amp Modeler

[ChordInversion]

The AM4 suits my use so well that I've moved my FM9T. Really great piece of gear for pure amp sounds.

Any way to modify channels from the unit itself? (i.e. without using the editor)

Pretty sure you just select the channel (in FX mode you can long-press to bring up the channels), make your changes, and then save the preset. I don't think you can copy/swap/etc. without the editor tho.

What's everyone using for an expression pedal with the AM4? Is the Fractal EV2 the best? Any other good lower priced alternatives?

I plan to use a Dunlop DVP5, but I've also used the cheap M-Audio ones too.

I use a bunch of Nektar nx-p expression pedals. They work fine for me. You can get them around $20 or $30.

Ancient Boss Ev5 here.

I bought a M Audio Pedal. It is very inexpensive, plastic, but it works until Fractal gets the EV2 back in stock.

Me too, the feel is just ok but the function is 100% fine.

I have a mission SP that I dig for the wah , but does not really work for the tuner / heel down or global volume pedal thing
So I may grab an EV2 whenever they come back in stock

I have 2 of the Moog EP-3. Not sure they're still being sold new though.

I had a Moog EP-3 back in my AX8 days and that thing never worked properly. I had to really screw around with the expression curve mapping to get it to work. I may have just had a bad one.

The M-Audio EXP is really cheap plastic and has a built in cable but it works better IMO. I have two of them for some reason, maybe I was trying to do an Andy Timmons thing?

Dunlop DVP is really nice, good smooth feeling pedal that's well built and maps well. But it's five times the price.

I always wanted to try a Fractal EV pedal but never pulled the trigger on one.

Aja's John Mayer Archetype X Preset for the AM4

@Aja said it was cool if I translated this to the AM4 so here it is. The only big difference is there's no Vibrato Verb model in the AM4 so I went with the Vibrato Verb AA model. You can follow along on his FM9 thread for more details on how he built these tones. The zip file contains a...

Did I mention that this is a great product? The tones are excellent! Feel is great.

However, I feel UI/UX could be much improved. But for what I paid, I'm not complaining - this is really excellent where it counts! I'm satisfied!
