I have barely touched my fc-6 lol, don't think I'll ever need a fc-12 after all

FC18 IS LIFE

Damn , I was saving up for that

Let us recall:

TGF: "Brock, get a Axe III, you'll love it"
Brock: "Nah, the FM9 is just fine and the III is too expensive"

*2 months later

Should I turn on my III, FM9, VP4, or AM4 today

I think it is... via midi. I intend to grab a Hotone Ampero Control 4 button midi F/S to use with the AM4. It also allows you to add 2 dual passive footswitches (in addition to an EXP pedal on the AM4 itself). I'm hoping to use those for input boost, output boost, tap and tuner.

It’d be nice if it was just an option in the stomp mode, as the output boost currently is. Don’t get me wrong, having the Output boost as an option is cool. But the option for both would be swell.

I have a Boss FV-500L volume/expression pedal. Does anyone know if this is compatible with the AM4? I tried setting it up but couldn't get it to do anything. Any thoughts?

Should work as an EXP only, by taking EXP out of the boss pedal into the AM4 with TRS cable.

I have one around here somewhere. I'll dig it out and try it with the AM4.

Any of you cats running external delays/reverbs? I am really happy with the internal, of course. But thinking of adding something down the road, for different flavors. I saw Leon's H90 video, and obviously GAS hit like a 2am Taco Bell 7-layer burrito.

I have a Keeley Halo and Nocturne but I usually just have those directly on my amp's loops.

Same here. Those two pedals cover all of my delay/reverb needs and then some.

Too bad Eagle isn’t here to tell you how plastic-y the H9/90 sound…

I don’t feel bad saying this because I’ve said it before when he was here, but he’s full of shit on that one.

The Nocturne is cool with more clean/edge-of-breakup models in the AM4 - but if the AM4 ever gets the MTD block I don't think you would need it (and Aura type in MTD for the haloish stuff) - That said, I get a reasonable Faux Nocturne with the current delay block and diffusion,

Turning a Reverb block with Hall, Medium into a pitchy delay just by using the PITCH SHIFT feature. Just get creative and you can do quite a bit inside AM4 when needed! Be perfect if someone needs 2 delays on AM4 with some quirky pitch shifting! This block can be used on AM4 and VP4. @iaresee...
