Brett, thanks for this amazing demo and instructional video. I own one and love it but wasn’t aware that you could modify some of the fx to sounds like other fx while extending the versatility of the VP4. Just subscribed, fantastic stuff!
Hi Brett my name is mahdi and im 23 years old im a guitarist and i live in italy im a special guy i take my medicine every day but i never give up on my dreams i love USA i love Nashville im coming very soon in Nashville with my dad im so happy really ❤❤❤i love this new fractal vp4 i think i bought one when i come in Nashville ❤❤❤😊😊🤟🤟🤟🤟🤘🤘🤘🤟🤟🤟❤️🎸🎸To put in front of my amp ❤❤❤🌟⭐🤟🤟🤟🤟🎸🎸😊I love your music and your channel i hope this 2024 my dreams it comes true to play guitar with artists in Nashville and find a girl in Nashville with Brown hair😊❤❤❤⭐🌟🌟🎸🎸
Glad you’re feeling better Brett, I was thinking it had been a minute since I’d seen a video. The VP4 is amazing, makes me want to sell my HX Effects & get one. The reverbs alone are worth the price.
Same... love my HX FX...Only thing I will miss is the command centre and snapshots, which i love. I have three main snaps and three fx at the top. Which means I can on/off and then clear them out by hitting the same snap again. But yeah VP4 sounds killer.
Hi i had three Fractals and have not find them user friendly for quick edits live. I hope this is different. The layout of the Hx and scribble strips are unbeatable@bruunm1975
Thank you, Brett! Just ordered mine yesterday. I have an FM9 Turbo for my studio but I'm still an amp guy onstage, so the VP 4 is a bullseye for me. Great demo!
Hi dear Brett Did you connect VP4 to the audio interface without needing a cabinet simulator? In this video the sound chain is guitar + VP4 + audio interface + PC?
I've had a short time with mine, and I could see running 2 VP4s, one pre and one post (out in stereo). The Fractal effects are top-notch. I might still want a couple analog drives in there. And, using the VP4(s) with the Ethos Clean Fusion Deluxe might just be a dream come true.
Hey Brett , I haven't said hello in a while. I am still enjoying your playing and videos.. The New Fractal Unit has my attention. Was going to upgrade from an H9 to an H90. Now you show me this thing ! Thanks !!
Hi Brett, can you get to all the parameters of a a reverb or od pedal quickly on the unit rather than the software. I sold my FM9 because there was no quick and easy way to get to all the parameters.
Apples and Oranges. Boss has more features, Fractal is studio quality effects. If you don’t need the studio effects, Boss wins. If you don’t want/need amp models, Fractal is better.
greetings Mr Kingman. I have a question for you… I’m ready to move on from the XL2+ and I was thinking the FM9 would be the good/right choice. I’m also wanting to physically reduce the amount of gear that I have. Currently I have the AxeFX XLII+, a Matrix Pre-Amp, and a patch-panel, all mounted into a SKB road case. Outside of that I have 2 x Matrix NL FR Cabs, and finally the Fractal MFC101 foot controller. I want to sell all of that gear and start fresh. The AxeFX3 for me is too much for me, in the sense of I will never use it to its fullest capacity. I’m an amateur not a pro, hence why the FM9 makes sense to me. I have my laptop so I can still design my own presets & scenes as previous, so nothing has changed there. I do want to purchase another pair of FR speakers. The NL’s are 60watts a piece, and their sound is incredible, yet their physical size is something I want to address. I’m wanting the same output and clarity, but approx half the size (or half the width minimum). Brett your wise words of wisdom, and recommendations would be most appreciated. cheers Ewan
I've been gigging a prototype FM9 since their inception a couple of years or more ago. It's done well over 500 big gigs and probably 250+ flights. Not once has it let me down and for the last 18 months at least, I haven't even bothered to bring a backup. That's reckless behaviour to many, sure, but that's how much confidence I have in it. Six stars. Just do it.
Brett, Really liking what i’m hearing on your VP4 - i’m looking for something to marry to my nano cortex or tonex - but not sure how to do that- thinking about using this AFTER my amp sim for time-based patches and then running a compressor and OD in front of the amp sim box - any ideas greatly appreciated!
Hi Brett, great video. What do you think of the GX-10 vs the VP4 as an effects only? I use the UAFX Lion and Enigmatic for my amp sounds with some drive pedals, and looking for something to cover reverbs/modulation. Thanks in advance!
This unit is the HX Effects all grown up, hitting the gym and taking steroids. It's nuts. Way overkill for me, as I typically don't use much in the way of effects but it's an amazing piece of kit.
It's amazing to have Fractal Audio effects in pedal form. I'm glad you're feeling better enough to have fun with the VP4 Brett!

Very cool after all this time I didn’t know about your brother 🤟🏻
Great video Brett.
Looking forward to more videos. I would be interested how you interface to fm3/fm9 and what the preset looks like
Many thanks fro this video!
To record in a home studio, just connect Vp4 to the audio interface? or do I need a preamp?

Take a look at the Fractal FX8 for that application.
Very helpful video. Thanks!
Would you mind sharing these presets with us? I really like the one you built for your brother. Thanks!

Am I wrong or is the Boss Gt1000 core a better multi fx option?
Different strokes for different folks

❤Nice
Great demo as always Brett but this feels like a recipe for chronic option paralysis….
Hi Brett, great video. What do you think of the GX-10 vs the VP4 as an effects only? I use the UAFX Lion and Enigmatic for my amp sounds with some drive pedals, and looking for something to cover reverbs/modulation. Thanks in advance!
I WISH this thing could change amp channels and have 2 loops then it would kick my HX FX oof the board.

VP4 needs no steroids. Virtual all natural goodness. 😉
Who needs an H9 or H90 when you can have a VP4...
Eventide was dead to me years ago because of their greedy BS with the H9...
I would love to have a VP4 Fractal is a cut above everything else 🤟🏻
YO Brett .. Question Does it have a volume pedal set up/ insert to run a volume pedal control after the overdrives , but before the Delays & Verbs ?
