- Fractal folks - would you like to use your expression pedal in your own presets, but you don't know the steps involved? Watch this video and learn how to assign the expression pedal to control all sorts of parameters!

You can assign it to 2 controls at a once. Like the Chorus blocks Depth and speed together, so heal down it's slow and deep and then toe down it's fast and shallow like a vibrato. you can even adjust the delay stack and release on the death control so it slowly ramps down as the speed is quick.
Hey Doug, how about a video detailing how to do the David Gilmour "Sound on Sound" thing?
Excellent suggestion!
Doug,I have a question... I noticed, Fractal have the same (In/Out) 1/4" connection, so can we buy any expression pedal brands to use this FM9 or are we limited to buy specifically for 7:11 Fractal?
You can use other brands. I use Mission and Source Audio expression pedals.
I see you are a PRS and Axe FX guy, as am I. Would be interested in a video that showed what guitars you have. Thanks for the content. Only steady axe fx show I get to watch weekly.
Thank you, and I have that episode coming up later this year, thanks for asking!
Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
Im confused by "External 1" ....why select that when the pedals clearly connect to "Pedal 1" on the actual hardware unit? (Talking about FM9 here). I know you can configure settings so that External 1 links to Pedal 1...but why? Why do this when I can just select Pedal 1 from the sources pane?
HELP DOUG!! I am brain locked and stuck. Using an original axe3 and original FC-12. I have a fractal expression pedal for volume. I have 2 other SP-1 mission pedals. I just want to use the sp1 as click on-click off for wah-wah's with one sp1, and other things with the on-off click as well. I know there are combo ways, but my head is still analog. How do I make this work?? Many thanks, Mike Carey, Atlanta
Mike - Assuming your volume expression pedal is set as EXTERNAL 1, you can set the other 2 as EXTERNAL 2 & 3. I have video called "Setting Up Your SP-1 With Your FM3" - you should be able to use that to help you get your SP-1s set up. My SP-1 is one of the newer ones, so it uses 2 TRS cables. Older ones use a TS cable for the pedal and a regular guitar cable for the switch. Hope this helps!
CAN YOU GIVE ME INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO HOOK UP THE EXSPESION PETAL ON THE fm3 ?
