Axe-Fx III Firmware 23.05 Release

[jimmynorrisjr]

Everytime when there is change in amp modeling, to get the various "correct" default values in Amp block across all my presets/amps, I always do "manage preset" --> "multi-select" --> "Reset Amp Blocks".

Does that get rid of your knob settings, or just update the under the hood items?

 

[jimmynorrisjr]

No. The power tube modeling is really good IMO. I don't think there's another product that even comes close.

I whole heartedly agree. You can make other products sound good with enough tweaking. FAS just sounds good out the gate, and sounds more accurate.

Nope, it doesn't

i had no problem with how the the presence knob was before but the fact you took a poll and were like do you want it better or effed up like it is in real life? and you went with the majority vote.....its so cool

 

[NY Guitarist]

The Blackface and Class-A amps are most notably improved in this release. The Blackface amps are warmer and punchier. The Class-A amps have more harmonics.

Now we're talking!

Actually, the vote was overwhelmingly in favor of keeping it the ideal taper.

Still waiting for that talent knob. I guess I need to keep practicing.

in the not so distant future, methinks that Cliff will introduce this oft wished for feature and will then poll the Forum on the preferred taper...

Oooh, now I REALLY can't wait for the new goodiez to get down to FM9-land.

AC30TB with everything on 7, riding the volume control and coil split on the DGT bridge pickup.

Man, that really cleans up nice with the split and lighter attack. The DGT sounds like I'm eventually going to have to get one, too.

For some reason, this doesn't show up in fractal-bot - that still shows 23.04.

Mine is there, it's just mislabeled Volume.

Fixed several mistakes in 5153 Stealth models

Find me any other manufacturer who is willing to publicly own (and religiously fix) their mistakes.

Amazing. I love FAS.

Jesus Christ the Stealths are amazing

Jesus Christ the Stealths are amazing

They are so alive now. I will probably use these this weekend live over my religiously used Euro models.

 

[blaggers]

Wasn't the problem the other way around?

I thought, for example, Output 1 mode was overriding Output 2 Mode when setting Output Copy Output 1 On.

No, my output 1 stereo setting got overridden to mono when I set out 4 to Copy L to R

this is my favorite clean to grit amp for this very reason, ever since the AX8!

Only 0.95 away from 24.0, which at this pace should be around Valentines Day!

 

[FusionFanatic]

This company is outstanding in every possible way.

Cliff .. is in a league of his own.

Anyone using a different ‘modeling’ amp doesn’t know (well, they should by now) what they’re missing.

The very best. It’s not even close.

Everytime when there is change in amp modeling, to get the various "correct" default values in Amp block across all my presets/amps, I always do "manage preset" --> "multi-select" --> "Reset Amp Blocks".

Oh yeah! I always forget about this step, haven't done it for the last several updates!

 

[simeon]

flippin eck i can't keep up! fantastic, as always!

 

[Shahar]

So if I reset all amp blocks (multi-select), doesn’t it fuck up all the presets?
