Excerpt from the PDF:

The FM3 features ARES Amp Modeling-the latest technology developed by Fractal Audio for the award-winning Axe-Fx III. ARES captures the subtle sonic characteristics of real tube amps, with 265+ models offering an impressive range of clean tones, elusive "edge of breakup", and everything from warm, touch-sensitive overdrive to face-melting modern distortion.

The FM3 also includes the entire speaker cab impulse response ("IR") collection from the Axe-Fx III, with a stunning 2,200+ "Factory" choices and 2000+ "User" locations to store custom sounds from free or commercial packages. As a multi-effects unit, the FM3 includes a superb selection of Fractal Audio's state-of-the-art effect algorithms: dazzling drive pedals, dozens of delays, reverbs, compressors, EQs, modulation effects, a looper, and more.

Like other Fractal Audio processors, the FM3 uses "Presets" built from "Blocks" on a "Grid" (4x12). Eight "Scenes" per preset can engage or bypass effects, switch effect "Channels", adjust levels, and more. Fractal Audio's flexible "Modifier" system enables easy real-time sound changes with onboard or remote controllers, switches or expression pedals. A precision full-screen tuner, two global equalizers, and a convenient Tap Tempo function are also built-in.
