  • Have you thought about using your FM3 for IEM (in-ear monitoring)? I have recently moved from Kemper and I now have an amazing-sounding stereo feed for my IEM mix. The FM3 has given me a much better live sound in my ears. It is also so much easier to control the IEM setup.

    we're using a Behringer XR18 with a Splitter setup for our band (guitar/bass + vocals go to the splitter first before FOH ) we get a stereo feed back from FOH for the drum mix
    we can use apps to control our own separate stereo IEM mixes which is very cool , we just upgraded from mono to stereo IEMs this year , huuuge difference

      I also have a feed from a Behringer XR18, although I only received a mono feed. Stereo does make so much difference in headphones and will make gigging much more enjoyable. Using the FM3's onscreen mixer is similar to using an app, although I am finding it much easier with physical knobs to turn. So glad I moved to the FM3!

      @@PaulHillGuitarist yeah the xr18 only has 6 aux outputs, this can be extended somewhat thanks to the intranet connection, so our drummer has a headphone mixer attached there for a stereo mix, leaving 3 stereo mixes for our IEMs
      glad you're enjoying the FM3, it's a brilliant device

    So much to learn with the FM3, although this IEM solution seems to be the way to go for me.

    Great stuff! Could you please explain how to make a simple mono patch with 1 guitar and 1 mono aux return? Connections, blocks, etc.

      Is this to have an IEM feed with guitar in mono?

      @@DarioRondini Add a mixer block to a new row (I used row 4), making sure it is to the right of the last block in your signal chain. Take a feed from the last block in your signal chain and feed it into the mixer block. Add an input 2 block before the mixer block and an output 2 block after the mixer block. The four volume and balance controls in the mixer block now control the volume and balance of rows 1 to 4. So long as your input 2 is set to "left only", you can feed a signal from a separate source into the mixer block via the input 2 jack socket.
