That is very encouraging to hear! Maybe I'll keep an eye out if they need a mediocre EE

If Fractal ever releases a hardware amp block, I would very much like it to be a set-top box with front facing knobs like an amp head, not a pedal.

IMO if it sits on top of a cab, pedal format is fine.
What I do agree about is needing more knobs!

Are we talking about a slanted faceplate here?

All the knobs from the ideal page should be on there. The knobs should be backlit (like the AX8) and use endless encoders like the ABCDE knobs currently. What would really take the prize would be a switch in the back that goes from ideal to authentic controls; when flipped to authentic, the lights on the controls with no function either turn of or become extremely dim or turn a different colour (editable from the settings page).

It appears so.
To me Cliff always seems very hard working, if it's not on firmware then it must be on something else that requires his full attention.

Just thinking out loud (and killing time)....
Can Fractal give us a Line6 or NDSP style UI that is intuitive--with existing hardware and the buttons we have available? Or is new-and-improved UI only really feasible on a newer unit with different buttons/physical setup?

Man, I’m not even caught up on FW updates, I feel like the last 2-3 months was BAM! BAM! BAM! with them, but I also don’t pay much attention to them being betas or FW updates, I just see there’s something new and if I have a few mins I’ll load it up.

Next time just look in a mirror and say; “Laxu, Laxu, Laxu” and you’ll get your answer without having to pose the question.

I barked up the "Give us some usability improvements" tree for several years. It's not happening without a next gen.

They’ve made some but nothing that competes with what others have brought to the market with their gear.

If it were only that it’d agree but it goes much deeper than that. I’m a tube snob so fancy touch screens and GUI’s don’t impress meGUI and fancy touch screens with eye candy, i dont see that in a Fractal its not in their wheelhouse

Let's do a completely pointless and completely loaded modeller to DAW comparison.
Fractal Axe FX III == Reaper
Helix Stadium == Cubase 14
Quad Cortex == Logic Pro X
There isn't a Pro Tools comparison, because there isn't a single modeller out there that is as wank as Pro Tools is.
