Fractal Audio Systems mystery product speculation

[deadpool_25]

With this thing fitting so nicely on that pedal train metro, I definitely gotta consider putting one next to the QC on a new board.

SPDIF.

In my opinion SPDIF is super important for integration, but for some reason everyone except Fractal omitting it from everything but their flagship.

That latest picture which finally looks like it wasn’t shot on a potato -
Why does an FM4 have stereo inputs ? And no XLR out ? Is it… actually an efx unit ?

Is this you dying on a hill?

 

[deadpool_25]

I wonder if it can be powered via usb-c?

I'd guess it can.because that, combined with spdif would make it super cool as a desktop unit for recording, wouldn't it?

Shame the QC doesn't have SPDIF...

Somebody knows something

Can you imagine an FM9T+"FX4" connected with SPDIF?! I'd have ALL THE BLOCKS!!

The boss has spoken, I’ll go look for my hill now.

Well, at least we don’t need another 25 pages speculating on 4CM!

Let's see. From left to right:

• Power? Is this two 9V outlets to power pedals? Or power for the Fractal + pedal outlet?

One to the right is a power button.

I'm guessing we can still eek out two more pages of it regardless.

Announcement and manual have to be released today right??

Right???

 

[paisleywookiee]

Most of the time people running 4cm are in mono. Perhaps you can set the R in/out to be the FX loop?

I once thought I had mono for a year. Turns out I was just bored.

I'm still debating. I did manage to get my wdw thing going on just the QC. The effects are definitely not Fractalish but it gets the job done. If this doesn't utilize the grid routing then I likely won't purchase as I really want my post effects to have multiple parallel paths. If it does use the grid...yeah this might happen.
