    After having studied the world of recording a little more, to understand the manipulations, interactions between all these parameters (amps, cabs, IR etc...fx pedals) I believe that the purchase of the FM3 was one of my good purchases . Long term use will be very useful to me. I'm not a professional musician but, home studio, live, reamp, he's my new friend. I already have the fx2xl axis and I think I wasn't ready...because now, I no longer struggle to make a guitar sound. Thank you Leon for everything you made me understand.

    The chunk with the gain / dirty with the ozzy was perfect sounding brother! Very cool.
    Just cool tones brother. That axeFx rocks..
    Very cool tones brother.. As always..
    So, is the FM 3 older than the FM9? Or are they both ax3's? I'm confused because I see fm3's much cheaper lately on Reverb, and the FM9's way up there.. Interesting..
    Thanks man..
    Be well my friend. God speed sir!

    FM9 is indeed great but the UI desperately needs an overhaul IMHO. Editing on the unit is a bit of a nightmare. Opening up a laptop to make some simple changes (on the fly, on unit changes are fun), is simply not convenient on any Fractal product. The desktop editor is fine. I just find it a little too, unecessarily complicated which takes some of the fun out of it. Yes, you can dial in 10 presets and be done with it but others have much more user friendly UI's. I hope they catch up.
    Tonewise, Fractal is king but QC, Helix, even Ampero II ($400 w/touchscreen!) have far better on unit editing capabilities. My cheap NUX MG30 was a dream to edit on unit. No touchscreen like QC or Ampero but everything was where you would expect it to be. Many parameters could be changed quickly and easily in one or two actions. I get it. Fractal FM9 is far more complex. Right. Well, then at start-up, give us the option of opening up instance A. (Simple) or B. Deep diving. Most non-pro's would enjoy a simpler experience IMHO. Still a great unit. I look forward to seeing what the new platform will look like. I suspect it is coming. No way they will let Neural and Line6 beat them on the UI front for long...or at least I hope not.
