In momentary scene mode, the M9 has 3 banks of 2 effects. In latch scene mode, it will do 6 presets of up to 3 effects each.
for the m9 - up to 3 effects at once. I love mine. Don't use the dirt, but great delays and reverbs.
So how many effects in a chain can I have at tone time? If it only does 2 or 3, then why would I replace my pedalboard with one? I'm thinking it's more flexible that.
Looking for inputs on the M13 and M9 for a quick fix to a cumbersome pedalboard for gigging. Anyone tried these? I have a feeling the M13 is too bid, and since I have a PODXTLive, I don't think I need anything that big. Would the M9 suffice?
Each column of switches is one sound, so you cant have two fx in the same column active. If you click a switch above or below one that is currently on, it will turn of that one and switch on the upper one. Think of it like having 4 pedals that can each have 3 presets (for the M13).
I don't think the M9 is meant to replace your whole pedalboard, just the Mod/Verb/Delay section. The drives are OK in a pinch (I keep a scene stored with drives that closely mimic my analog drives in case of emergency) but I haven't used them live ever. Modulation, Reverb and Delays are all really great and sit in the live mix better than the more expensive stuff IMHO.
