thanks for the video Mr Todd. I immediately purchased the Quad+ foot switch i cant wait to try it on my FM3

[@LeonTodd]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@georgeha2]

hi Joshua, have you managed to get the OCD QUAD to work on your Fm3? I bought one and I can't configure it to work correctly for me, greetings.

[@joshuawalker116]

Yes I got it to work for me

[@papasquito]

This video really helped me out bro. Without it I would have been pulling hair out of my head for hours. Thank you a million.

[@LeonTodd]

Any time!

[@japhygoldman8856]

Thanks, this helped me set up a NUX 2 button pedal on my FM3

[@6stringstandard136]

Great option for the Fractal gear, but I guess you then have to choose between wanting an expression pedal or these 4 stand-in switches. Looking at their website, it looks like they have a 2 button option as well, so that could be an option.

[@LeonTodd]

Yeah if you need an exp pedal 2 buttons plus exp pedal would be sweet. otherwise, this plus a midi exp pedal would work too

[@dmitriopekine5402]

But what stops you to use both 4-switches and expression pedal?

[@Durmomo0]

@@dmitriopekine5402 I think its the pedal inputs on the back of the FM3 only has two inputs

[@damienabyss5336]

Pretty cool. Nice to have options for people.

[@LeonTodd]

Definitely!

[@GianniCalicchio]

Instead of nux 2 switches I prefer a boss fs-6 unlatched so you can manage 4 options (2 for press and 2 for hold) and use the second input for expression pedal

[@joetroup7368]

Thank you for the video. I bought the Quad for my FM9 and now I realize the Pedal inputs only support TS (unless it's an expression pedal). So, only 2 switches work. Unless I'm missing something...?

[@jeffrankin7624]

When I go into FM3's Stand In Switches page, choosing Layout 8 gives me OMG9, not Stand Ins. Does anybody know why?

[@Skiman13M]

Thanks Leon! Your awesome dude! (the switch is pretty cool to).........😁

[@kevinbolton5]

I'm sorry I'm new with the FM 3 which inputs on the FM3 you insert cables in? Disregard the website has a setup video great stuff Leon!

[@georgeha2]

hello, I bought the OCD Quad and I haven't been able to configure it with my FM3, following your video you get to a page where you get layout 8 "STAND INS" and it doesn't give me that option on my FM3, I don't know if it's because you You did it with an older firmware, I have version 5.3, could you help me please? Thank you...

[@eddiecancelmusic]

What preset is this?

[@matgluszak]

Is it possible to use ocd quad+ with 4 switches and expression pedal from fractal fv2 with fm3? Maby it is possible to connect ocd quad + wit the Y cable? Fm3 has only 2 inputs for external pedals

[@BobGuido]

Good gear to extend Fractal functions! I would also love to get a run down of your skateboard setup and where you skate in Perth, being a long time skater meself! Are you a park/bowl skater or more of a street skater?

[@LeonTodd]

No way! I'll add this to my Friday Q&A :p

[@XxSypherxX91]

Can I use my EVH 5150 iii 50 watt foot switch with the axe 3?

[@AC-pu2eh]

is there any way to accomplish the Press and Hold function with these or any other external switches?

[@AyBi_Studio]

That could've been perfect if it had LED for each switch.

[@Cherry_Sunburst]

EXCELLENT.

[@Durmomo0]

Those are really cool. If you use the quad switch one with the FM3 you dont get to use an expression pedal right because all of your switch inputs are taken?

[@LeonTodd]

Correct

[@Durmomo0]

@@LeonTodd Thank you.

[@jimmynorris]

Will this work with the fc-12?

[@LeonTodd]

Yes

[@tnglator]

Why not just use your fm9 Leon? Just curious

[@LeonTodd]

This would be appealing for someone who already owns an FM3, or who wants a slightly more compact/cheap rig.

[@tnglator]

@@LeonTodd thanks Leon. Still deciding between the two

[@kcaruso2588]

Can’t find a video on how to hook up with FM9. Any ideas?
