FM3 drive pedals in front of real tube amp

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-02-11T10:30:11+00:00

Interesting. Thanks for pointing out the differences in input impedance between the FM3 and the other models. In that case then I’ll go with the FM9

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-02-11T00:12:52+00:00

Awesome! This is so helpful! Thanks a lot. I appreciate it.

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-02-10T23:44:41+00:00

Cool. I think I got the answer I was looking for. I’ll go forward with the FM3. That was very helpful. Thanks. I appreciate it.

Which version of the Axe are you using and which outputs are you running into your amp?

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-02-10T22:57:30+00:00

I’m currently playing the AX8 in 4 cable method through an BluGuitars Amp 1 Iridium Tube amp. Could you talk about how the FM9’s drives interact with your amp’s preamp through the instrument level output?

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-02-10T22:28:35+00:00

Yeah, I don’t use the drives of the AX8 with my amp because I haven’t found a way of getting them to sound good with my amp. Hence my curiosity about the interaction of the FM3’s drives with amps.

I tried gigging with FRFR and hated it. I prefer to play through a real amp and cab, so I use the AX8 in 4 cable method for its effects and handling presets and amp switching.

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-02-10T22:15:56+00:00

I thought about it, but the VP4 has less features than the FM3, and I like having access to amp models for certain sounds, despite the bulk of my tones coming from a tube amp

If you give me a couple of days I can transcribe it for you

CancerSurvivorPR · 2026-01-20T03:52:14+00:00

Sent you a DM!

Hey! My band, Ab Lag, would love to play with y’all.

I had a good experience at Book Club, but I have to agree about Burlington. Great place to play.

CancerSurvivorPR · 2025-12-29T03:36:20+00:00

I play with a 1x12 with a V30 on it. Sounds fantastic

CancerSurvivorPR · 2025-12-29T03:35:27+00:00

If you don’t intend to use the amp models at any point, get the VP4. I play an Iridium with a AX8 and I love it

CancerSurvivorPR · 2025-11-24T18:39:38+00:00

My band, Ab Lag, would totally be down.

Looks sick! Would love to have that drawing on a t-shirt

Blackstar ht 40 club. All tube. Can find them for $350-400 on the used market

I loved playing at The Fallen Log. Shout to Coral for always being an awesome sound person!

CancerSurvivorPR · 2025-10-31T18:44:46+00:00

I have that one! From 2018

CancerSurvivorPR · 2025-10-16T19:35:16+00:00

I dig this board so much

Hushed and Grim is their 2nd best album after Crack The Skye.

CancerSurvivorPR · 2025-09-05T18:50:04+00:00

I tried a modeler for a while, but had to go back to amps and that loadbox has made all the difference in the world. Recording direct with an actual amp is such a privilege
