Hoping for some guidance here. I'm a Fractal FX8 owner who picked up an FM3 after the FX8 was discontinued. Unfortunately, used as an effects unit in front of an amp it's a little noisier and (might be my imagination) but doesn't seem to feel as immediate as the FX8. I'm considering picking up a HX Effects as an alternative. The FX8's last firmware update five years ago, whereas the HX Effects is still supported and updated by Line 6. From what I've gathered these updates have been pretty regular. How far have the effects come in that time period? Has anyone switched from an FX8 to a HX Effects? I'm primarily interested in comp, pitch, modulation, delay, and reverb. Or if anyone has any other suggestions I'm all ears.
