Relevance is my rig plans, Your Honor

@FractalAudio is there an IR/Cab block available on this new box?

I'm sorry but you must pass all inquiries through @Whizzinby

Why would an effects pedal include an IR block?

FFS this thread has hyped me so badly on buying a fractal I'm now looking at FM3s. I'd get all the effects and the amp modelling to check out. I've already checked the dimensions and I can fit it on my board

Do it lol

Do it lol

I'm going to wait and see what the new product is and then sell a few bits to finance one of them.

So you can run preamp pedals without cab sim direct with it. Lots of people doing direct rigs with Kingsley and similar preamp pedals.

All my add ons are grayed out

Atleast on mobile

I feel better now that someone not historically known for being insane has chimed in seconding my feature request

I thought we were still talking about the plugin that's going to be released?!?

On a different note, what’s the Over/Under for another TOP thread??

The <<new FAS device>> Launch (for me) has been one of the worst experiences of my music career​

 

[Boudoir Guitar]

Wait...have we not even mentioned the "FX4-but-also-a-plugin-dongle" feature?!?!?!?!?!?!

 

[holoholo]

HXFX has an IR loader

I think it has its use cases. You can use it with a load box, preamp pedals, an acoustic guitar and corrective IRs,

"I have lost money to clients because I sold my audio interface in anticipation of this thing. And now I can't use it as a plugin-dongle, because its not a plugin-dongle, but I planned on it being a plugin-dongle from Whizzin-in-the-streets hype of the plug-in. THANKS FRACTAL!!!!!!"

[…] Never heard of such an issue. […]

Perhaps not many of your customers are guitarists?
I haven't tried it with a mic yet, but the noise is there as soon as I plug the guitar cable into my audio interface and switch on the monitoring. I haven't heard it with simple playback yet.
