If it works, can't remember if we got that working or not, then the M9 just chops off the top row and FX unit 4. So the M9 is the lower left 6 switches on the M13.

I don't think people do that.

Is it likely to cause any issues if I try it?

I would think that it would either work or not work.

Also the New 2.0 Update is up for the M9, so no more moaning about missing fx, I want to hear how easy this is to do with Monkey?

I may be interested in this. The M13 was too much. This may be just enough.

Couln't resist - bought one yesterday. Owned the GT-10B before and am very interested in the comparison!

One minor thing: If you want to use an expression pedal as a volume pedal, one of the three FX is killed for that!

Greeetings!

Tried one out today in a GC. It had the newest software on it and sounded great! I'll need to wait a little before I can make the purchase, though.

The $399 price is a little steep to me. I'll give it a try, but probably end up right back where I am now...Bass --> Amp.

Internally it's supposed to be the same hardware as the M13. So, it would stand to reason that it could handle a fourth effect. I would love if they hardcoded the "fourth effect" as a volume pedal. It would only be active 1) you have an expression pedal plugged in and 2) the expression pedal is assigned to volume. I think that would be a simple change to program and be very useful for M9 owners. Of course, I'm doing a bit of speculation on the internals of the M9.

I will admit that $399 is a little steep. $299 would be a much better place for a lot of people, especially considering you can get a Floor POD or PODxt for a similar price range.

We can't. We thought about it for M13 as well. It just becomes to complicated on how to implement it. The volume pedal is in there for special effect stuff for guys to use who don't run a volume pedal. If you run a volume pedal all the time, why not just get a nice volume pedal?

The M9 is not a Floor POD or PODxt. Totally different customer. We also use all the DSP juice for effects only so they are all running wide open. Hang tough, someone will put it on sale at some point if you want to grab one.

I see your point. I keep checking the stores around me for the M9, they have them in transit but nothing in stock yet.

Posted this in another thread, but figured I'd post it here. I picked one up yesterday at GC in NY. Came with 1.01 firmware. I upgraded to 2.02(?) using my Profire 610. I had a problem trying to upgrade using a USB MIDI sport.

I don't want to derail the thread much, but while we're talking about updates, how about an update for the X3 Pro to include the Dimension D and Tri-Chorus? It's available on the M13, M9 and MM4. The X3 has everything but the kitchen sink and these two models.

Thanks!

Did you manage to update it correctly?

Got mine yesterday and it came with the old software. I downloaded Monkey, registered the product and tried to update the M9 and... I'm also having problems:

The process ran for about 80 % and then crashed. The second run was succesfull - I had a song open in Logic 8, maybe that was the reason.

I will look into it.

I recorded some first impressions of the M9.

Can somebody tell me where to upload the MP3 (without registry or anything)?

Yes, I was able to update. I made sure not to have anything else running while I updated.
