Fractal's New 8.0 Firmware For FM3 Is Awesome!

In today's video I'm breaking down why Fractal's new firmware for the FM3 (version 8.0) is so incredible. This modeler was already amazing, and now we have Cygnus X-3 amp modeling, and the big ticket item - gapless switching!!
In the video I'll show you 3 essential options you need to turn on right away if you want to make your life a whole lot easier.

I like seeing you work directly on the unit. Everyone else seems to use the PC screen.

[@ChasingSoundGuitar]

Thanks for the feedback. In the future I’d like to do somewhat of a combo of working on the unit and using the edit tool.

[@hotglassbottles]

I should try a Fractal one of these days. They do seem extremely capable!

[@ChasingSoundGuitar]

You definitely should!!! There’s a ton of great patches I can share with you

Great, informative vid! I love many of the amps but right now the RockerVerb-50 (Orange) is giving me incredible Marcus King tones. The Brit2203 & VoxAC-30 Top Boost are also my go-to's when I'm feeling more creative.

[@ChasingSoundGuitar]

You can do some really magical things with the Vox AC models. Especially when you have a boost or fuzz in front of everything, it gets fun.

I think my favorite amp is the JM45. I use a Earthquaker Devices Acapulco Gold pedal in front. Sounds pretty sick. Btw clean your FM3 man!

[@ChasingSoundGuitar]

The JM45 is great. I gotta check out that Acapulco Gold pedal. I dig Earthquaker stuff, but I hadn't checked that out yet. My FM3 usually has plastic covers for the screens, but sometimes dust gets in the cracks. haha at least you know it's being used.

[@MarkLumsley]

We use the FM3 with our feet, so most of us are okay with the fact that it'll look a little dirty and dusty.

[@Haunting1981]

@@MarkLumsley lol and I drive my car with my feet but you best believe that I wash that thing regularly.

[@ChasingSoundGuitar]

@@MarkLumsley truth! 😆
