Access all the famous sounds from DL4 Delay Modeler, DM4 Distortion Modeler, FM4 Filter Modeler, MM4 Modulation Modeler, Verbzilla, Echo Pro, and more.

M9 Stompbox Modeler is set up like three FX units. Each FX Unit can have 2 stomps at the ready, and any 3 effects can play simultaneously. Use 1 effect at a time, arrange effects in tried-and-true combinations, or create your own original blends.

Use the Line 6 M9 Stompbox Modeler to create 6 different stompbox arrangements, or pedalboard "scenes" —1 for your metal band, 1 for your punk band, 1 for your Top 40 gig—you get the picture. No more tearing up Velcro just to switch out one or two pedals. Plus, the M9 Stompbox Modeler features MIDI in/out, for you to back up your scenes to your computer or control the unit with a MIDI controller.

Inspired by the simplicity of classic stompboxes, the Line 6 M9 Stompbox Modeler is incredibly easy to use. Tweak your tones on the fly using the dedicated knobs and easy-to-read LCD window. Just turn the knobs and you're done—no menus, no saving, no hassles—and your tweaks remain, even after you power down.

Complete with a full-featured 28-second looper, Line 6 M9 Stompbox Modeler allows for extended in-the-moment looping. It has all the necessary looper controls with dedicated footswitches to make looping easy: Record, Record/Overdub, Play/Stop, Play Once, Undo/Redo, Half Speed and Reverse (The looper can be used simultaneously with the three FX Units.).

The Line 6 M9 Stompbox Modeler features plenty of ins and outs. 1/4" mono/stereo inputs and outputs (with True Analog Bypass or DSP Bypass) let you put M9 Stompbox Modeler before, after or in between your other pedals. Connect expression pedals to the two 1/4" expression pedal jacks to morph smoothly between tones. MIDI in/out, which is perfect for backing up your "scenes", also makes M9 Stompbox Modeler compatible with many popular MIDI control systems.

M9 Stompbox Modeler is built tank-tough with all-metal construction. From the chassis to the footswitches, M9 withstands constant stomping. Together with its built-in chromatic tuner, the Line 6 M9 Stompbox Modeler's generations of sonic treasures and brain-dead simple design will prove indispensable—not to mention highly addictive.

M9 stompbox modeler info so far - part 2

*Please note: This info has been unconfirmed and subject to change without notice*

Its seems that in the M9 Stompbox modeler lots of enhancements (when compared to the current M13 stompbox modeler) are being implemeneted. underneath we try to give you the lowdown on what's in* there..

There will be more effects in there as in the current V.104 software version of M13
Particle Verb will be in there, a modulated reverb ala Octo verb.
A clean octaver inspired by the EBS octaver is added
Added are different EQ (4 or 5 different ones)
Intelligent pitchshifting alike in Spider IV and Spider Valve MkII
Pitchglide alike the Spider IV and Spider Valve MkII series
Different wah's alike the POD X3 models
6 scenes of 6 FX

The looper is separate and can be running while you are using your M9 in its full capacity
Improved Flangers and Phasers

Well, there are couple new versions of the flangers based the MXR Flanger and ADA Flanger. The Analog Flanger and Jet Flanger are left alone. Some guys love them as is. There are new versions added called the AC Flanger and the 80A Flanger. Phaser has been redone because it didn't quite do that VH thing. So added a "model" called Script Phaser. It has one parameter, SPEED, so it can't be put into a crazy place. Basically the LFO opens up a bit higher than the Phaser currently in M13.
M13 is updatable as you all know, after the update for the M13, the M9 and M13 will be all the same, just different form factors for different jobs. M13 IS your pedalboard, and M9 goes ON your pedalboard
Stay tuned for more..
