Fractal Talk

[TSJMajesty]

Damn! This thread has 3x's the views/responses/pages than the Helix thread, yet Helix is, (I'm making an educated guess here), in more than 3x's as many rigs.

Could there be a correlation?

Brock's in heaven, and I remember how much Mike gushed about his Helix..., until he switched. I know that's just anecdotal and all that, but I just wonder if it's a case of better/more marketing for Line 6, in that they're more popular than Fractal.

Or is it b/c Line 6 is in stores? Combination of both? Other reasons? I'm way off?

Just thinking out loud here. No shade on Line 6.

Alls I can say is maybe you guys didn't notice this, but I love my Fractal FM9, it inspires me, it brings a smile to my face
It's simply amazing, and no I'm not a fanboi

I am. Fuck it!

Can someone tell me what these symbols mean?

The blocks with || before and after name doesn't seem to work for me.

But what does the solid block inside of a block mean and what does the 4 solid blocks mean?

Also what does the (1) and (2) mean? I thought maybe different versions of them but so far haven't hear a difference between them?

Is there a RTFM for this lol

The (1) and (2) means they're duplicates, at least in name.

For sure I loved my Helix great product, but the Fractal is next level for me, like you no shade to L6 its just I knew I could do much more on a Fractal, and so far I'm not wrong

I haven't tweaked a tone in months now. And I switch between maybe 4 different ones. And I'm still on FW25. (Axe III)

There's a section in fm-edit editor. Settings > preference > workspace that you can select any folder (where you put your .blk aka block files) for your block library and it'll read from there!

I’ve checked that
I hit browse in the library
Leon’s block library from Oct 23 shows up
But it’s empty

And I have read many more posts switching to Fractal and being overall more pleased, than the other way around. (Here, FAS, & TOP) But in fairness, I've never visited a L6 forum.

Im thinking having a larger share of the marketplace familiar with your product/reputation, having product in a broad range of price point, having product in brick and mortar stores around the globe are three reasons.

Personally I had a Helix floor from 2015 unit about a year ago. In that time I literally bought and sold off two AxeFx III, one AxeFx II, one FM9, two FM3's and the Helix Floor said hello and waved good bye to all of them. It was my hub and a strong contender for #1.
Yet now I have my third FM3 and only have Helix Native and HX1 as my Line 6 arsenal.

Sounds like bug.

Is that because you're trying to make Fractal something it just isn't, for you? Genuinely curious.

I wonder if you can use fractal fm9/fm3/axefx block library on vp4 as well and vice versa? I don't see why not considering they're the same effects?

They’re not compatible, unfortunately.

Yeah just figured that out in the block library log after trying "block's device Id did not match the connected device's Id."

Weird they aren't compatible considering they share the same effects...
