MX & Fractal™Unique commands
The MX has some unique commands that are not available on the Fractal FC footcontrollers™.
3 ways to use the AFX3/FM3-Channel command.
- Select a Channel (A/B/C/D).
- Switch between 2 channels. Example: A-D. Off = channel A, On = channel D.
- NXT to jump to the next channel. The next channel will be displayed in the LCD and the LED will change on each step: A – B - C – D.
Channel Select
AFX3/FM3-Block AMP1 & CAB1
Beside all the available Blocks in the Axe-Fx III/FM3/FM9™, there is an extra choice “AMP+CAB” which will affect Amp 1 and Cab 1 at the same time.
AMP1 & CAB1
AFX3/FM3-Block & Channel
Combine commands Block and Channel. Activate the selected FX Block state and select the desired Channel (A/B/C/D) at the same time.
This reduces the amount of buttons presses.
Block & Channel
MX & Fractal™More Choices
With 5 different MX models you can always find a perfect MX companion.
Sometimes a big controller like the Fractal FC-6 & FC-12™ are to big or to heavy for your setup.
Sometimes you only need 5-9 extra buttons on a smaller footprint.
MX-5, MX-9, MX-12 2x6, MX-12 3x4 and MX-18 have the same button space (7.7cm) as the FM3/FM9 & FC-6/FC-12™.
MX & Fractal™Control all your Midi equipment
The FC-6/FC-12™ are NOT midi controllers. They are footcontrollers which work only with the Axe-Fx III/FM3/FM9™.
The MX, on the other hand, is a fully equipped Midi controller.
If your setup has other Midi devices, the MX with 6 Midi commands per button is probably a better solution.
