Review: Improves the FX3 audio handle immeasurably - Let's be honest. The FX3/FX30 audio handle is horrifically plasticky and almost impossible to use as an actual handle. This is transformative. It adds a lovely weight to the module, with the increased length and finger grooves making the handle actually useable. Plus, the grooves and mounting points to allow you to attach things like microphone receivers, monitors etc is brilliant. If you have an FX3 or FX30, just buy this. Don't even think about it.
Review: Essential component. - Now the handle works with big, European hands!
