Fractal Audio Systems mystery product speculation

[paisleywookiee]

I think maybe a LB-1 ( Load box, with Dyna-Cabs and all that stuff)
If so, that`s over 10 years in the making

If so, as a non-amp owner, I'm profoundly not excited. But we'll see.

 

[GTR37]

He actually once stated (probably on TGF) that an FM0 would be interesting or something like that.

He did when JIve brought it up said something like I have thought about the exact same thing but that was years ago

 

[GTR37]

I'd love to see McKenzie test that one out!

It would be a difficult task
To pass the large stick that is already stuck up there

 

[paisleywookiee]

When we say “FM0”, do we mean a 2024 POD bean with Cliff Sauce, that can take an FC-series? If so, my body is ready.

No fucking around!!!

So that’s what the wand was for?

I do know that metal handle means it shouldn't be within 10 feet of electronics!

It ok I am sure he is an expert
In “electro static discharge

Man, you got lucky. That’s not what I got

There is going to be a tube version as well, for those who need to plug their A.I.R. sensation (click to expand):

And I have herd there will be a thicker edition codenamed "Girtha"!!!

All in jest of course! This is not a Fractal product!!

I hope it comes with a Bumbuster™ cable.

We ran out of ideas 18 pages ago. Please @FractalAudio drop us another clue in here, before it gets any worse.

 

[Achilles]

Indeed

Prestige S-Series?

 

[LP59]

while we’re touting FM-0, what kind of processing power should it have?

I like the idea of it being more of an agile/modular axe fx, than something that is still “inferior”. Not sure how much the extra processing affects cost vs the other savings it would make. Something more powerful could also beef up an existing FM-3 or 9 rig

It will probably have the same cpu as an FM3. FAS has a hard enough time as it is without expanding the number of cpu's they need to support.

And you would know this....HOW, exactly? I wouldn't put anything past Cliff and the guys. They are incredible engineers.

And you would know this how?

You missed the P word.

I'm assuming same CPU as FM3 = same cooling requirements.

Eliminating the footswitches and that chassis area gets rid of quite a bit of internal volume
that's probably part of the current cooling equation.

My crystal ball says not the same CPU and something scaled down in relation to the scaled down size & features???

I guess it’s too late already, especially if he reads all this. Omg it doesn’t look good really…


We’re totally nuts.

Relax, guy. No need TGP him.

 

[CakeEater]

Guys, I've been doing a tonne of window shopping lately, when am I going to know if the Fractal product is the one....?
