Fractal Talk

[Stone]

I play high-ish gain IRL (on Mesas) with the Telecaster (Fishman Koch pups), and yes it sounds different than humbuckers, but it sounds different-awesome. I'm just struggling to get that same experience with the Fractal, and this is a main guitar for me, along with my IBZ JS.

Well then

I play high gain with both single coils and humbuckers and think it's awesome for both. The Helix is good too but for what I like I think the Fractal is way better. I'm more of a Marshall guy though, that's probably the difference.

Link me some presets.

Say Guys what is the CPU Limit on FM9 turbo where its not advised to go above
I'm Hovering about 81-82% (scratching the red) is this still usable or will introduce problems ?
Dual Ultra Hi Res cabs used if i Go to Standard IR it drops to about ~72%

Thanks

80% is the recommended limit.

In my experience it can work up to about 85%, but you are more likely to run into random issues like the unit muting itself when changing scenes in that scenario. 81-82% is probably fine.

Note that you can also run a single cab block in stereo and just feed it two amps left/right if that's the scenario you are using.

Even on the Axe-Fx 3 I rarely use dual amps and cab blocks.

From my experience with both it’s the opposite of your opposite.

Oh noes! Now I'm not sure if my experience is the opposite of your opposite, or the opposite of the opposite of your opposite!

I like cheese!

Me too, man. Me too.

No clue how to do that, I’m just using the 1970 plexi model thru the greenback York cab. Boosted with a tube screamer for the heavier stuff.

That’s a great amp model for playing this … (although that you can hear that orange amp clearly in this performance/mix)

We covered that for years, great tune!

Ooh Aaahhh. Adjusted input gain in Settings, to a higher level so it's "tickling the red", and it brought my Tele to life. Every model I tried (Deluxe Reverb, Smallbox, AC20, JP2C.....all over the board) sounded WAY better.

Auto input gain would be cool lol or maybe it's already a thing?

Isn't input gain on the FM3/9 auto-compensated like on the AxeFx 3?
Basically just a SNR optimizer?

One way to find out

No idea. I just know it went from poo-flavored to BAZINGA by setting it to 70 in Settings. 70 what? Fuck if I know. I'm already an IT guy by day, and apparently I need to be an audio IT guy too.

THE JCM800 IS SO GOOD YOU'LL SLAP YO MOMMA IN THE TEAT

 

[James Freeman]

Hmm, JCM800 and Oscilloscope you say...
What about a frequency analyzer?

RealTime Analyzer block, perhaps? Your science>>>>>mine
