Fractal Audio Systems AM4 - Amp Modeler

[Richard_G]

Nice! I’m already on the G66 waitlist (confirmed within an hour of this thread being created).

OMFG. I beta tested the VP4 but had NO idea this was coming down the pike. Jesus....

 

[AlbertA]

There's two threads already on this

Does it do the pitch/envelope follower stuff? I’m sure nobody knows or cares, but I don’t want to go join the Fractal forum.

Looks like yes to envelope and pitch follower sources for modifiers, but no to pitch fx.

We need more threads if we are going to catch up to the Badlander or the Helix Stadium

oops missed your response lol

This will sell like hotcakes for Fractal ! :)

Well done.

Am I right in reading that similar to the VP4, this is a max. of 4 Blocks at any one time ie: Amp and Cab plus 3 other Blocks ?

Mmm. Mmm. Tasty tasty tasty.

Woah - amazing!

Can someone tell me - can you turn cab blocks off on this?

 

[Whizzinby]

For a pedalboard setup this looks pretty badass. Put all your mono pedals up front, then hit the amp blocks + 3 reverb/delay/mod blocks for all the FAS stereo post fx. That’s 12 post fx channels and whatever else you have via the loop. The ability to go straight to your interface via SPDIF makes it pretty awesome for a direct recording rig.

Yep! Globally or per-preset. See pages 18 and 19 of the manual for an AM4 > power amp type setup with cab sim bypassed.

I thought I was told I was an idiot for wanting this in the speculation thread leading up to the vp4?

 

[laxu]

So...can you use this as a multifx unit like the VP4? Or is the amp block always active? Can you put e.g 2-3 blocks after it?

 

[holoholo]

So is this device included in the next-gen that were supposed to get NAM?
