Fractal Audio Systems AM4 - Amp Modeler

[Sascha Franck]

Watched quite some videos about multiple purpose blocks (mainly boost/amp/cab and delay/verb) and scenes.
Even already thought about making this a new year's present for myself because I could possibly play pretty much any gig with this... if only it wasn't for the footswitch limitations.
Pretty sad IMO, but I simply can't find any satisfying switching layout that'd work in a way I like.

Got my AM4 yesterday and spend half the day playing it with two new guitars that also arrived yesterday. So far a good sounding unit. And an "interesting" experience coming form Helix land back to a menu based editing. I won't say anything about sound (I have no ears). Yet.

But I have an issue with USB. I just cannot get it to work so I cannot use AM4 Edit which further adds to the user experience so far. I tried several USB cables (including the high quality one provided by G66), several USB ports on several computers. Any ideas? I'm on Windows.

Did you install the USB driver?

Quick question: is it possible to use input 3/4 over USB and then output 3/4 to do pre-FX with plugins in a DAW with the AM4? I’d like to be able to for example use Helix Natives Poly Capo before the internal blocks on the AM4. I understand that there would be some latency introduced if course but no additional D/A and A/D conversion.
