Tone Matters. Use It Well.
Yes, that's correct. What began as a modest quest for tone was supplanted by better quality, although at higher cost. While most folks prefer low cost quality goods, there is a fine point made when one has burned through inordinate cash in past years, only to be disappointed by a product's limitations and/or availability.
That being said, my current HeadRush Gigboard is adequate for my needs but GAS is taking hold and a desire for a "better" quality device with computer programmability is happening.

The Fractal FM3 is a 3-footswitch deep-divable modeling device that runs ARM technology. At this writing, the latest software incarnation is Cygnus v. 4.0.0, with advanced organic-sounding presets.
The selection and quality of amp models is superb. You can dive into a wealth of versatile functions that each hav e a value for themselves without even tweaking the system...most all factory presets are optimized for the listener and appeal to almost any practicing guitarist.
The sheer number of effects, amps and cabs is incredible. My honest praise originates with various YouTube reviews and tutorials, and usually, I do not offer such praise with doing due diligence and research.
For those who own either the AX8 or Axe FX II or III, please chime in and describe your experiences with the Fractal ecosystem. What awaits my modeling curiosity may be that of a Fractal FM3.
