There are 250+ models so it’s a bit hard to judge from a single clip too.
I've been messing around with the global amp stuff. It's so powerful. I've got 30 song presets with the same amp block that can be tweaked in one go. So cool.
Haven't come close to exhausting the power of the AFX3, where the 2 was exhausted quite quickly.
I have only 4 presets- scenes work so well that I don't really need more than that.

However, FracPad.... yet again, would not load for me. Constant crashes when I try to connect. The creator of it is proving pretty 'sassy' in his responses to my requests for help as well. The good news is that I had to quickly learn how to use the front panel controls, which is fairly straightforward once you're used to where everything is.
How are you connecting Fracpad?
I can now use the front panel but it's definitely fiddly. If you want to start adding scene controllers to things or add an expression pedal to a parameter it becomes a deep dive maze.
The default layouts I've got are Presets on 1, scenes on 2, FX1 on 3, FX 2 on 4, amp controllers on 5 etc. I'll be adjusting it to the same as you though - just makes more sense. So much functionality on the FC12 though, it's amazing.
I've tried using both a USB cable and the BT-MD01 Yamaha dongle. It worked for a week, and now is back to crapping out for no reason.
Now I just need to wait for G66 to get stock....!
Just be aware that there's no dual amps, the signal path is shorter and you can't drop the presets into the FM3 from the Axe.
And not a problem - I never use dual amps or a complex chain. Good to know though.
What have you learned on your Fractal journey? What would you do differently if you were starting again?
However, id suggest 1 pre-set with clean, edge, crunch and lead (as you have 4 channels of pretty much everything) , then have different presets for different flavours of that range - rather than 5 scenes of clean on one preset and 5 of crunch on another (for instance). Does depend how you want your FX to switch as to if you use scenes or channels to achieve that.
Acoustic will need its own pre-set of course.
