Thx Mario. I already have the VP-4 (which I love) and am seriously considering the AM-4 for a number of use cases. I am trying to see how it can work with my current gear to analyze its overall usefulness. Fractal has integrated the two devices in a way that allows both to share data as if...

Hi. I saw that the VP-4 is now partially supported with a few required setup procedures. Will the same MIDI CC and PC commands work with the AM-4? And if so, are the same setup procedures required?

Actually, I think I should do some testing first. I already own a GCX loop switcher. Regardless of whether I set up stereo preamp paths, I will be getting a MEGX. I could set up a multi stage test with each preamp. I would start with a preamp's I/O just connected to one loop to see if there...

Thank you so much Mario for your detailed answers. I think I am starting to get a handle on the potential for oscillation. You said above that, "oscillation potential occurs when you connect both the input and output of a preamp to the send and returns of a loop, and those signals get routed to...

Thanks for the reply Mario. This was the info I was looking for. As far as ground loop prevention, I have an 8 channel Ebtech Hum Eliminator. I think that should work. Of course it adds the cost of 16 added mono cables to the bill. But I have plenty, so that won't be an issue. WRT...

I have a lot of tube preamps that I want to use with a MEGX. I want to confirm that this will work before I try it out. My idea is to route two mono series loop paths in parallel and use a GFI Duophony to mix one preamp from each path. I will use my Radial JDV MK3 to split my guitar's output...

Thanks, @rjmmusic. I plan on using the Wet / Dry Machine as a power amp section switcher for four different amps. It is expensive, but is an amazingly flexible device with full MIDI control over every optional parameter. Moreover, it can handle just about any level of signal on its I/O paths...

As of the latest firmware update / software update released today, you can now easily control GigRig G3 or G3 Atom by a simple MIDI IN utility that maps your G3 preset's bank number, preset number and footswitch assignment to a MIDI IN PC# sent by the MMGT. IOW, you set up a preset on your G3...

Please add the GigRig Wet / Dry Machine.

This will be possible and easy to implement some time in the future. So why would you want to do this? There are lots of reasons. The main one is the same as the one as to why I started with the RJM ecosystem in the first place. I wanted one device controlling everything MIDI in my rig. Sure...

Hi RJM master minds. Are you going to release a TKRP version for the MMGT? It should be almost the same as the Imperial, but with a few differences in the effects and voicing switches.

There is another reason you might want to split a MEGX loop from stereo to mono. Say you split loop 1, loop 2 and loop 3 into mono loops. You'd now have loop 1, loop 7, loop 2, loop 8, loop 3 and loop 9. All six loops would be mono. You could use loops 1, 2, 3, 7, and 8 for pedals placed in...

Hi Admins. Any news on full two way support for the Fractal VP-4 and AM-4? Thx, Steven.

Just for the record, I saw a post from Leon Todd who is an official Fractal reviewer, where he says that the AM-4 actually has a somewhat more powerful DSP than VP-4 so it can run the amp / cab blocks. That said, the MIDI implementation is likely to be similar, if not identical. Hope this is any...

Fractal says the AM-4 has the same amp and cab models as the Axe FX-3. Plus a "curated" set of effects and drives from the product line. The VP-4 already covers most of the drives and effects found in the Axe FX-3. But it has no amp or cab modeling. Having looked at the owner's manual, it...

Just when I thought I was done buying pedals, they pull me back in! Now I need an Enigma and an Ox Stomp.

I actually asked Fractal support if there was any way to use the S/PDIF I/O and the two analog loops at the same time to double the I/O. Sadly they said that was not in the cards.

Sorry, but there is a problem with this configuration. Fractal has limited 4CM to mono because there are just two sets of mono inputs and outputs. So connecting the second set of mono outputs in one of the stereo loops on the PBC/10 will convert VP-4 to mono output. This would potentially be a...

I don't have the PBC/6X but I do have a VP-4. The VP-4 can be set up with stereo output. In that configuration, you're best off connecting it to one of the PBC6X' stereo loops. If you want, you can also connect it in mono using 4CM. In that case. I suggest you connect VP-4's input 1 and output...

Excellent news!
