Fractal Audio Systems mystery product speculation

My body is ready to receive its first fractal device

Fully digital parametric and graphic equalization.

How many times have you wished more EQ control was global rather than model/capture/preset dependent?

Axe-Fx III is still super powerful and has a lot of mileage left in it!

But I would say that, because I own one and only bought it 9 months ago.

My current FAS product buying cadence has been roughly every 9 - 10 months though, so why interfere with that natural rhythm, eh?

So does helix after almost 10 yrs… but new products keep a company moving forward as long as they advance enough compared to past units. It’s progress

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say whatever it is, TB3 won't buy it.

This is the most coherent statement I've seen Tim make

FM6 with built-n expression and I'm there.

That would have me taking a look.

They're ultimately just different approaches for different situations. There are absolutely specific uses where anything other than using a HW modeller would be daft. And likewise, working with plugins just makes certain things WAY more flexible, powerful, inspiring, easy, fast that anything else feels unnecessarily cumbersome.

As things stand Fractals stockpile of DSP vs the number of products they sell that take advantage of them has SO MUCH potential. They could (theoretically) release 10 new products that would all be wildly popular. There are also very valid reasons why they don't do that, but there is a ton of potential money on the table if they want it.

But I don't like using plugins...

I’d also love an FM1 like the HXOne. Just one, badass Fractal effect at a time in small pedal.

Similar to throaty. And dare I say ballsy.

Deep throathy gutsiness?

An effects pedal would be sweet but I'd love a 2 or 3 button one personally. Love the HX One tho
