The new VP4 beta should be dropping with the new compressors and spring reverbs I would think soon? (info i seen on fractal forum)
So the FM3We should petition cliff to do amps/cabs in a VP4 enclosure and same price range
Call it AC4 for amps and cabs. Can run 2 amps and 2 cabs.
So the FM3I get what you mean but I think it would be too similar.
I do wish the VP4 had a IR or even better dynacab block
Yeah it would have to be a global option I think. I wouldn't necessarily want to waste a effect block on an IR/cabI have seen people asking for a IR block globally over on the forum, so maybe one day!
If it has Turbo after the name it has more CPU. OG FM3s don't have a headphone out. This is located right below the input jack so be sure to check that out. The Mark II have bigger display text.I am just wondering if the original FM3 is still worth it or the mark II which seems harder to get? And what is the differences between the two... guess I need more googling!
I have an OLD AF OG FM3 and it's great. More CPU is fine but I can run my gigging presets on it quite nicely. If you are mainly wanting amps and cabs and don't want something totally pedalboard engulfing; the OG is fine imo.
Yup!My next question is though, are the amps and cabs the same between the OG and II?
I will say if you have FOMO of any sort; just bite the bullet and get the III.

Definitely not buying any rack gear. Way too much extra shit and the redundancy cost would be ridiculous.I will say if you have FOMO of any sort; just bite the bullet and get the III.

There's some differences, like no bias tremolo option on FM3 in the amp block.Do you know if the FM3 amps/cabs are the same as the FM9 / Axefx III? As in same amps/cabs and parameters etc?
It has 1/4 outs.What I'm trying to figure out is, looking at the fm3 manual it doesn't seem to have 1/4th outputs like my helix floor has? Looks like XLR outputs only? So I would have to get xlr cables to use with my JBL monitors. And the fm3 looks like 2 fx loops right? So one for my vp4 and another for my boss vg-800/gm-800 rig.... But then none for my synth stuff argh lol. I could just then use helix floor for my synth rig!

These were only some of the first ones on the market. Most FM3 Mk1's do have a headphone out, a great one at that.OG FM3s don't have a headphone out. This is located right below the input jack so be sure to check that out.
I guess I'm considering the OG FM3s to be the ones first shipped. Regardless, just be wary of that if it's important to the buyerThese were only some of the first ones on the market. Most FM3 Mk1's do have a headphone out, a great one at that.
