Fractal FM3//Top 3 settings for better headphone experience

[@slicksalmon6948]

Lovely. Thank you. Hardly anyone talks about the headphone experience, but I use them almost exclusively.

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

Of course! I use headphones only as well.

What kind of amp did you use?

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

For this video it was most likely the Two Rock in the Fractal. These days I’m using a Fractal Tone Match I created of my Two Rock Traditional Clean.

hello everybody I use the FM3 for almost a year and I love it. that said, I tried for the first time to use the headphone output (connecting 4 cables), and the sound does not come out in the headphones. Is there a setting in the fm3 or a particular connection in your opinion? thank you very much in advance 🤙

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

Hmmm. Are there any global settings you need to adjust? I would think it’s just the output knobs you need to turn.

Hi Buddy amazing videos thank you ok. I can connect the avion inear system to the Kemper Stage {mini jack to avion headphone jack to kemper return L-R }to listen to the seq or tracks "for church or live perf" so i can listen exactly my guitar setup the way i set it up at home and it sounds the same because i plug my inears to the Kemper instead of the Avion System, can we do the same thing with the FM3? please say yesssss and show us 🤞Thank you in advance

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

Basically, are you asking if you can plug headphones into the FM3 and then have a way to play along to tracks?

[@johnerodz7]

@@JonKaneshiroGuitar yes from Aviom inear i go from Headphone jack to kemper return with a Y Cable

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

So either plugging the fm3 using the usb into a computer, then playing along with the track works. There’s also another way to use a stereo breakout cable I believe to plug into the fm3, then play the tracks from a phone or other device. I mainly just use the fm3 as an interface and plug straight into my computer. Then you could play along with Planning Center tracks, KZbin, or other mp3s.

@@JonKaneshiroGuitar Yeah sounds good i normally use it for live performance like at church

What kind of amplifier did you use?

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

Most likely it was the two stone in the fractal

I just bought my fm3 today, and since i dont have studio monitors of an frfr speaker .Im down studio beats, but they sound very low. When I up the volume and output it clips and sounds horrible. Is there a particular setting I change the output to headphones. On my boss GT1 I can select the output type(headphones,stackamp,combo amp etc.) Is there such a thing on the fm3?

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

For me, I always dime the Level 1 knob on the top of it then tweak my presets accordingly. I think there’s another setting where you can adjust output for headphones. Let me check and get back to you.

@@JonKaneshiroGuitar alright. Thank you so much

[@SjaakShirly6559]

Regretfully...I don't own a FM3 but nevertheless this sounds great. I use a Helix.

[@JonKaneshiroGuitar]

I highly recommend the Fractal stuff!
