Fractal Audio Systems mystery product speculation

[Jarick]

I'm guessing $899 on the price but hoping it's lower.

Can it do w/d/w doe?

 

[Whizzinby]

MIGHT AS WELL JUST ASK HIM TO SEND YOU A FREE FX4

On the contrary. I’ll Venmo @FractalAudio the cash tonight and we can just go ahead and get it in the mail tomorrow.

Get in line brother!

 

[Jarick]

Question will be, get on the wait list right away then decide as it comes up?

Can it do w/d/w doe?

Not enough outputs for that imo.

But since you'll be using a different source for the amp you could almost certainly do WDW with some outboard gear.

 

[likitlikeyoulikeit]

So can we get a wait-list link?

This is shaping up to be the thing I may want in my possession.

Well damn, I might just have to buy a real amp so I’ll have an excuse to try this thing

But Cliff himself posting about 4CM has me blue balled and edging…

Funny thing is I have an EVH 50w stealth I've been on the verge of selling for a while now. I'm tempted to get this thing and use it with that but I just moved into a place where I can't really do that.

 

[norminal]

no big Knob

Yeah, the H90 runs two algos, so if this runs a quartet in non-economy mode, this isn’t a “budget” pedal. At best, maybe Big Sky MX level around $699.

 

[norminal]

yes

Depends on how aggressive Cliff is with pricing. I think H90 is the most logical comparison and this would very likely beat it in terms of functionality. I don't think it will be as much as the FM3 though but I could be wrong.

 

[texhex]

Better off asking what it doesn't do at this point. Ultra-High setting on that signal chain...

 

[deadpool_25]

I'd guess the pricing will be heavily dependent on what dsp they used and how many.

If there's plans to unlock amps in 12 months for $199 just tell us upfront
If it's basically a desktop friendly FM3 (4) for FM3 prices with the inclusion of spdif in/out, sold.

 

[Jarick]

Oh didn't even occur to me it's desk friendly. Yeah amps would be killer in that case.

FX4 + IR-X would be a fantastic combo...

 

[LinzHenderson]

What if it’s TWO new products? FX and Amps in separate units. Get the Fractal bits you want, or go all-in with an FM3/9…
