## What is Fractal Remote?

Fractal Remote turns your phone into a remote control for your Fractal audio devices. A virtual pedalboard

Switch presets and scenes, turn blocks on and off, change channels, tune up and tap tempo - without walking back to your unit.

SUPPORTED UNITS
FM3, FM9, Axe-Fx III, AM4 and VP4.

The demo is the whole app running against a simulated unit. Nothing is cut short and nothing expires. You need no hardware and no computer to look around.
WHAT IT DOES
- Switch any of your presets, by name, in slot order or from a setlist
- Scenes, with the names your unit already uses
- Turn blocks on and off, and pick channels A to D
- Open a block and change its real parameters on real knobs
- Tuner, with the note and how far off you are
- Tap tempo, with the tempo on the button
- Setlists and starred presets, kept with your account across devices
- Colors that match your unit's own screen, so you find things by looking

HOW IT WORKS

A phone cannot reach a Fractal unit on its own -  So a free companion app runs on your Mac, Windows PC or Linux box, holds the USB cable, and your phone talks to that. Get it at fractal.newbold.cloud/downloads.

Once the two are paired, the phone works from anywhere - the same room, the far side of the stage, or a different building.

ONE PAYMENT, LIFETIME UNLOCK
Controlling real hardware is a single purchase. It unlocks the full app on every device you own, forever, including every future update, on all supported Fractal units. No subscription.

Not affiliated with, authorised by, or endorsed by Fractal Audio Systems. FM3, FM9, Axe-Fx and AM4 are trademarks of their respective owner.
