Firmware release notes - FM3

5.0 Public Beta

'New and Improved FEATURES'

• Improvement: The front panel now has various double-tap functions:
  • Double-tapping EDIT edits the previous block.
  • Double-tapping HOME enters the layout grid.
  • Double-tapping STORE prompts immediately.
  • In the Home or Layout menus, double-tapping the A-E push-knobs does the following:
    • A enters the Amp 1 menu;
    • B enters the Drive 1 menu (think “Boost”)
    • C enters the Cab 1 menu.
    • D enters the Delay 1 menu.
    • E enters the Reverb 1 menu (think “rEverb”)
• Improved CPU performance of the Reverb block.
• New Amp model: “FAS Buttery”
• New Drive Block Types: “Valve Screamer VS9” and "Maxoff 808" including a new diode SPICE model “1S1588T” This is the Toshiba version of the 1S1588 and is reportedly the diode used in the “best” TS-808s.
• New “Types” within the Flanger, Plex Delay, and Multitap Delay blocks provide instant access to exciting effect settings without the need to adjust or understand advanced parameters. Special thanks to Leon Todd, Simeon Harris and Cooper Carter for some of the new effect type contributions.
• New LFO in the filter section of the Plex Delay block allows creative modulation effects.

See the Blocks Guide for details.

• Push-knob functions in the Block Edit have been simplified to a single page.
• New “Modern Gate” type in the Gate/Expander Block. This type is similar to the Classic Gate except the gate opens in a constant linear-in-dB manner. This naturally makes the attack slower as the gate first opens and can be used for both traditional gating and for special effects like audio swells.
• New “S-Taper” option in the Volume Block allows new and improved “Auto-Swell” sounds.
• New “Max Loop Time” parameter to Looper. This sets the maximum recording time.

This allows a loop time to be set precisely in advance of recording.

• New Diffuser Modulation in the Multitap Delay.
• New 'MUTE' option for OUTPUT 1 MODE. This causes only processed audio to be muted. USB audio will still be routed to and heard, enabling certain applications when using a DAW with input monitoring.
• Changed Looper behavior so that if recording and time reaches the maximum recording time the mode changes to that specified by Record 2nd Press (for the first pass of a new recording.)
• Overhauled the Compressor Block in line with the latest Axe-Fx updates:
  • Improved Auto-Makeup gain behavior.
• Added Input Level switch. When set to INSTRUMENT the detector is optimized for guitar-level signals, i.e., before an amp block. When set to LINE the detector is optimized for post-amp level signals.
  • The Pedal, Optical, Tube, Analog, JFET and Dynamicomp types have been completely redone resulting in improved performance. These types now inherently perform automatic makeup gain.
  • Auto Attack/Release has been removed from the Pedal and Dynamicomp types as it is no longer applicable.
  • Added Emphasis frequency to the sidechain.
  • NOTE: Due to all these changes the behavior and output volume of the Compressor block may be different. It is recommended to audition any presets using the Compressor block and adjust as required.
• New option “ALL” for “Spillover” in SETUP: Global Settings: Config. In addition to Delay and Reverb, this includes Plex Delay, Multitap-Delay, and Ten-Tap Delay blocks, allowing spillover when switching presets. See your Owner’s Manual for more on spillover.
• Added “USB 3/4” to the input options of the Multiplexer block.
• Added global Speaker Impedance Curve. When set to DEFAULT the speaker impedance curve used when selecting an amp model is the default curve for that amp model, otherwise it is the selected curve. NOTE: this does not affect existing presets. The selected curve is used only when selecting a new amp model. Also added several new Impedance Curves; thank you to Dr. Bonkers Soundlab for these.
• Added “RCB Boost” to Amp block Boost types.
• Added Master Bias Excursion parameter to the amp block. See the Blocks Guide for details.
• Added red indicator line to the mini tuner.
• Improved Tape preamp types in Cabinet block.
• Improved accuracy of Drive block Drive control for low settings.
• Improved accuracy of Master Volume in Amp block for low settings.
• Improved Amp block cathode follower algorithm. Algorithm now uses higher order solution of nonlinear ODE for more accurate low frequency response.
• Improved Amp block power amp algorithm. New algorithm more accurately models dynamic changes in speaker impedance resulting in more “complexity”.
• Improved Stack/Hold in Delay block so that “texture” is applied to audio when Stack/Hold is on.

Foot controller changes​

Added “Bank Switch Limits” ENABLE/DISABLE to the FC Config menu. These allows the FM3 to ignore the limits set in bank switches, thereby allowing access to ALL BANKS by default. Fixes​

Fixed the fan ‘chirping’ demonstrated on some units. Other small fixes based on those made on the Axe-Fx III. Fixed a crash when editing Bank and Effect Inc/Dec functions in certain circumstances. Fixed a potential crash in the Multitap block time is set very low. Fixed modifiers not working properly for some parameters (e.g., Plex Delay Rate parameter). Fixed KVB not being updated correctly. Fixed certain graphs disappearing after a banner display.

4.01

• Added Poweramp On/Off parameter to the Amp block. This removes Power Amp control from the “Supply Sag” parameter and makes it a separate independent control.
• Added “Indicate Edited on Scene Change” to in Setup: General Settings: Config page. This determines whether or not Scene changes cause the “EDITED” LED to light.
• Added Compander parameters to Delay block.
• Added Compander type to Compressor block. The Transients control adjusts the transient modification. Values less than zero soften the attack, value greater than zero emphasize the attack.
• Added “Presets” Utilities page to upgrade Presets stored in flash to the currently installed firmware version. When executed, all presets stored in flash with an older version of the firmware will be upgraded to the currently installed firmware version and automatically re-saved to flash. This process can take up to 20 minutes but will speed up preset changes.
• Improved Rotary block “Drive”.
• Updated Multiband Compressor block with changes made on AxeFx-III.
• The Global Performance Controls from Amp 1 have a new layout with Drive, Master, and Level in one row. To see this change, you would need to perform Reset System Parameters (NOTE: This action resets all system parameters and will also initialize Footswitch Layouts.)
• Greatly reduced CPU requirements of the White and Pink noise oscillators in the Synth block.
• Improved behavior of Synth block Shift control when attached to a modifier.
• Increased gain range of Filter block and input EQ in Amp block to +/-20 dB.
• Fixed FAS Brootalz model inadvertently referencing the Angle Severe presence network.
• Fixed pop when switching channels on Input block when using different gate types.
• Fixed Master Time not working in Plex block for Plex Detune and Plex Shift types.
• Fixed NaN in Stereo Tri-Chorus if Delay Time and Rate are set to minimum.
• FC Fixed: Built-in OMG15 corrections.
• FC Fixed: The FC layout displayed above Home: Knob E will now update correctly.
• FC Fixed: Mini-LCD displays will now display the correct information for Preset, Select in Bank functions when Display Offset is set to “1”.
• FC: Changed how Bank Switch Limits work. In the previous firmware version, a setting was added to enable whether or not bank limits are enforced or ignored. This required making a change to every switch in every layout when you wanted to turn limits on or off. This feature has been REMOVED and REPLACED with a new Global option found in Setup: FC…: Config. “Bank Switch Limits” can now be globally enabled or disabled via this new parameter.

4.00

CYGNUS AMP MODELING

Firmware 4.0 brings Cygnus Amp Modeling from the Axe-Fx III to the FM3. Cygnus uses new SpectrumTrack™ Technology to improve the response of amp models from clean to high gain, ensuring that the frequency response of the model matches the real amp at all levels of input excitation. It delivers truer and more dynamic voicing—especially for models with cascaded gain stages—plus exceptionally satisfying "chugs."​

A new set of FM3 factory preset banks is now available on our web site. These are completely dialed in to showcase the latest and greatest features of the FM3 and Cygnus Amp Modeling. With these new banks installed, you won't need to worry about reset existing factory presets — simply install and enjoy. Please see the ReadMe file included with those presets for installation instructions.​

To update your own presets for use with Cygnus, it is recommended that you reset the amp block for best results. The information contained in the following forum post may be helpful: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/thre...ed-to-know-about-reset-an-amp-iii-fm3.173317/​

ADDITIONAL FEATURES AND FIXES IN FIRMWARE 4.0

• Added: UltraRes IR support and corresponding “IR Length” parameter in the Cab block.​
• Added: New Drive block modeling and types. This block is now in sync with Axe-Fx III.​
• Added: Output 2 now has both “Unity Gain” and “Line Level” modes, each with their own sub parameters. A short guide follows after these release notes.​
• Added: “USB Buffer Size” parameter. The USB buffer size determines the number of samples and thereby the latency between the FM3 and USB host. Lower settings result in better latency (recording and playback) but smaller sizes may not work well with all hosts. A good rule of thumb is to set the buffer to the smallest possible size, increasing if you encounter any USB audio performance issues. Find USB Buffer Size in the Digital I/O Configuration section of SETUP: I/O: Audio.​
• Added: Latest changes to the Reverb block from Axe-Fx III.​
• Added: Latest changes from the PEQ from the Axe-Fx III.​
• Added: Low and High Cut Slope parameters in the Cab block “Preamp” now extend to 24 dB.​
• FC Added: “Bank Access” parameter for Bank Inc/Dec footswitch functions. When set to “ALL” the settings for Bank Lower Limit and Bank Upper Limit are IGNORED. ALL is the new default, so if you wish to enable these limits for bank switches, you must set “Bank Access” to “LIMITED”.​
• FC Added: FM3 + FC-12 (“OMG15”) layouts are now built-in and loadable from the Reset page in FC Controllers/Onboard Switches.​
• Fixed: USB has been reworked to reduce issues experienced by some customers.​
• Fixed: Holding special troubleshooting keys (Home, Enter, etc.) now works correctly.​
• Fixed: Output 2 EQ only working when Output 2 block is in the grid.​
• Fixed: The PRESETS menu page now correctly displays the active preset.​
• Fixed: Pedal calibration will now work correctly for pedals set as “Tuner on Heel Down.”​
• Fixed: Inserting Pitch block into a high CPU grid will not hang up the GUI.​
• Fixed: Vintage Tape Chorus Delay Time parameter can now exceed 19.85.​
• Fixed: Drive Low Cut parameter is now functional.​
• Fixed: Aligned Pitch block “Type” names with Axe-Fx III.​
• Fixed: Speaker LF response if LF Resonance and Q are set to low values.​
• Fixed: IRs in Cabinet picker page now displayed in correct color.​
• FC Fixed: Disconnected FCs stand-in switches will no longer trigger during start-up.​
• FC Fixed: Footswitches are now resistant to an issue that was causing freezing.​
• FC Fixed: Mini-LCDs issues experienced by some customers have been eliminated.​
• FC Fixed: Default FC Layouts are now loaded correctly by “Reset System Parameters”.​
• FC Fixed: Footswitch preset functions will now honor the global “Default Scene” setting.​

GUIDE TO FM3 OUTPUT 2 UNITY GAIN & LINE LEVEL OPERATION
Output 2 of the FM3 is now able to provide your choice of either unity gain' or line level output. The following short guide will help you to make the required settings for either use case.​

UNITY GAIN​
To use FM3 Out 2 in unity gain applications, such as when connecting to a tube amp or certain pedals, confirm the following settings in the "Output 2 Configuration" section under SETUP: I/O: Audio​

• Output Type: Unity Gain​
• Boost/Pad: This optional setting may be increased to lower the noise floor. This can be useful, for example, when connecting to a "gainy" tube amp. Be careful however, as higher settings can cause clipping in the FM3. Watch the Status LEDs and reduce preset levels or turn this setting down if needed.​
• Output 2 Copy: Typically, "None", but there are also applications for copying "IN 1" to OUT 2, such as when recording an analog DI at unity gain via Out 2 while also recording the processed signal via Out 1. Remember though that placing an OUT2 block on the grid will override any Output 2 Copy setting, passing instead whatever audio is sent to the block. Other settings such as Level, Boost/Pad, etc. are not affected by the presence of the OUT2 grid block.​
• Set Out 2 Mode and Phase as desired. See the FM3 Owner's Manual for additional details.​

For Unity Gain applications, set the Out 2 top panel knob fully clockwise to the highest setting.​

LINE LEVEL​
To use FM3 Out 2 for Line Level applications — such as when connecting to FRFR guitar speakers, studio monitors, mixers, etc., confirm the following settings in the "Output 2 Configuration" section under SETUP: I/O: Audio​

• Output Type: Line Level​
• Output Level: -10dBV or +4dBu (most pro devices operate at +4)​
• Output 2 Copy: As desired: "None”, or "Out 1" if you want Out 2 to reproduce the signal at Out 1 without needing an OUT2 grid block. You could use this, for example, when connecting to personal monitors via Out 2 while Out 1 is connected to a house PA. Remember though that placing an OUT 2 block on the grid will override the COPY OUT 2 setting, passing instead whatever audio is sent to the grid block. Other settings such as Output 2 Level (+4/-10) are not affected by the presence of the Out 2 block.​
• Set Out 2 Mode and Phase as desired. See the FM3 Owner's Manual for additional details.​

For Line Level applications, set the Out 2 top panel knob as desired, starting fully counterclockwise and then increasing gradually until the desired output level is achieved.​

3.03 Public Beta

Added “Downtune” and “Display Mode” parameters to the Tuner, and added the option “All” to Tuner Input Source so it can track both input 1 and/or input 2.

Added Setup: Global: Config “Output 1 EQ Type” and “Output 2 EQ Type” options for graphic or parametric, including the option to turn each EQ off.

Added “Footswitch Tuner Mode” (Setup: FC Controllers: Config) which uses the onboard LED rings on the FM3 to help you tune visually.

Added “Detector Type” (RMS or Peak) to the downward expander effect (Gate Block).

Added Diffusion Amount and Time parameters to Crystal Echoes effect (Pitch block).

Added Multitap Master Chorus rate and depth parameters.

Added LFO High Cut parameter and markers to ADSR graphs.

External Controller “Initial Values” can now be set to any value from 0 to 100%.

Improved the rate of communication with a connected FC controller (especially FC-12).

Improved how the FM3 remains connected to FM3-Edit after certain USB “sleep” activity.

The UI is now more responsive when a high CPU preset is loaded.

FC: Preset/Select in Bank switches will now flash after a bank change until you make a selection. This will not happen if your Bank switch is set to automatically load the FIRST or CURRENT preset in the new bank.

FC: You can now install the “OMG9” FC settings directly from the SETUP: FC Controllers: Reset page of the FM3, with no download required. The OMG9 Owner’s Manual can be found at: http://www.fractalaudio.com/downloads/manuals/FM3/FM3-OMG9-Manual.pdf

FC Added: “2nd Press = Previous Scene” option to the Scene/Select function. When set to “ON” this allows you to press the footswitch for the current scene to return to the previous one.

Fixed: Overlapping text when “Prompt on Edited Preset Change” is enabled.

Fixed: Global Input and Output volumes now initialize correctly when an expression pedal is used. (These parameters are located on the “Setup: MIDI/Remote: Other” page.)

Fixed: UI now updates when you disable Tuner “Use Offsets” in FM3-Edit while tuning.

Fixed: “COPY SCENE” and “SWAP SCENE” now correctly copy or swap scene data in the Scene MIDI block and Control Switch “Per Scene” settings.

Fixed zippering that occurred in some circumstances when using an external MIDI modifier.

Fixed: Setting “Output 2 Copy” to anything other than “NONE” no longer overwrites the regular OUT2 signal.

Fixed: Auto-engage now works consistently with modifiers on the amp and delay blocks.

FC Fixed: the main LCD on a remote FC should now update correctly in all circumstances.

Fixed: Activating the tuner with “hold” on a TEMPO switch will no longer affect the tempo.

3.01

Fixed amp block’s Cathode Follower Compression value not loading correctly for patches saved under firmware prior to version 2.0.

Added “59 Bassguy Jump” Amp type.

Fixed Scales menu in Global Settings not synchronizing with FM3-Edit.

Fixed audio artifact when changing channels and viewing the Tone page on the amp block in some circumstances.

3.0

Amp modeling updated to match Axe-Fx III firmware 15.01.

• Improved Power Amp Modeling. The new algorithm yields accurate dynamic frequency response which results in clearer bass and extended highs. More “chug”, “thump” and “chime”. NOTE: Existing presets should be auditioned. While the overall tone isn’t significantly changed, the transient frequency response is enhanced which may alter the tonal perception.​
• Improved output transformer modeling in Amp block. For typical values of Transformer Drive the difference is subtle but mathematically more accurate adding a pleasing low-end growl and improving “tightness” _in high-gain sounds. For high values of Transformer Drive the difference is more pronounced. If you have increased Transformer Drive on your presets above the default value then you should audition your presets.​

Fixed Depth control not working on some amp models.

Fixed erratic flashing of Tempo LED.

Fixed random flashing of front panel LEDs.

Added “Tuner on Heel Down” to MIDI/Remote/Other. When the value of the specified controller goes below 5%, the tuner will be displayed automatically. Typically you would set this to the same CC# or pedal used for volume control so the tuner will come on automatically when the volume pedal is pulled back.

Fixed issue with modifiers on the Amp block causing audio artifacts and drop outs.

Fixed imported Tone Matches not working correctly.

Fixed crashing with some imported Axe-Fx III presets.

Fixed issue causing audio drop out when changing the input gate type.

FC: Fixed an issue causing “CFG ERR” to be displayed in some footswitch configurations.
