Well this bodes well for the future of the AM. Very close to III update speed. Obviously small sample but still a good start!

well crap that was fast
I thought it would be into the new year before first release

Preset using the new Deluxe 6G3 amp and Citrus Juicer compressor with 2 scenes.

Great for some nice blues and blues-rock and country!

S1: MAIN
S2: MORE SATURATION (which turns on and pushes the saturation switch in the preamp section up a notch in expert edit)

Probably a benefit of the AM4 having the same C66x DSP as the Axe-Fx III.

Jesus, I’ve been asking for a 6G3 in a modeling platform for years. I’ve only had this thing a couple weeks but there are times I’m not totally sure Cliff isn’t reading my mind?

He's hiding in your cupboard. Go check.

If there’s anything I don’t need in my life, it’s another excuse to go to the cupboard.

I don't have anywhere to put this one... so here it goes....

I think the main reason is people would have stepped on them and kept opening menus.

Boss has a "lock" function just to prevent these kinda accidents.

There’s no reason Fractal couldn’t have added a 5th switch on the upper half right side of the unit.

There's no reason they couldn't made the switches programmable.

There’s probably a few but none that would likely satisfy you

DOesn’t need more size. The Boss MS3 did it and it’s half the size. Fractal obviously has better effects, but you could have 3 loops and a stereo send on the MS3 along with 5 foot switches. There’s no reason Fractal couldn’t have added a 5th switch on the upper half right side of the unit.

There would be a high possibility of hitting the SELECT knob.

While the FM3 step-child is still stuck on a dated version.

Tandy Ammons Aura thanks the team.

That Brown Deluxe is awesome. I was pondering bringing my Brown wanna be from Germany.
Saved on cartage.

The code for programmable switches exists. Can't see why they must be dumbed down. Heck, even the new Valeton GP-50, a unit for 120 bucks, has more flexible switching options (at least in some aspects).

 

[Los-D]

Analog Bypass is now available on the AM4
Very nice when using with pedals!
