But does it pass the @laxu test?

• Compact = desktop friendly
• Stereo in/out or 4CM mono
• Fractal sound quality
• MIDI in/out
• SPDIF in/out
• 4 footswitches
• Likely some simplified variant of Axe-Edit
• Onboard user interface

I am eager to see how it incorporates waffle cooking technology.

Mongillo wins the thread imo

Meh, I snagged the pic from the FAS forum. Right place right time

Nicolas seems to have basically gotten it all wrong

Again

Analog up front, digital in the loop

Yeah, for $999 or so, I'd just use this as a delay/reverb machine. I spent $1400 on four small Strymons, fer crissakes.

This is how the Lexicon MPX G2 was designed. Still one of the most incredible units ever made.

Isn't the FM3 999$? I'd say this will be quite a bit cheaper, my bet is on 599$

If its 599 I'm in trouble

Me too but I doubt it'll be that low.

FM3 is $1099. And I doubt this'll be cheaper than $899. Could be wrong though. Unlike some people here, I don't frame my theorizing as fact.

 

[spawnofthesith]

I hope its 900 because then I'm probably not in trouble

Welp now I gotta clear my browsing history.

 

[DLC86]

FM3 is $1099

Uh ok, maybe the non-turbo mkI version was 999... anyway I still predict 599 or 649 at max
