Thinking of finally upgrading from FW Q4 to Q10. What can I expect?

[Ant Music]

Just wondering if there is anything super drastic that will require me to reset/audition any of my presets?

More amps, better sound, less bugs, speaker compression. The loss of old modelling revisions.

Here are the FW release notes.

I would expect quite a bit of re-tweaking of your presets. Lots of improvements (changes) in amp/cab sections

First and foremost BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!

Lots of changes over that many major revisions. Amp models of coarse, but the gain staging of the Compressor (and Drive?) blocks has also changed. Definitely read through all of the 'Release Notes' between those two firmware versions.

Ok thanks guys. I appreciate the help and straight forward answers.

Ok I seem to have landed ok. Sounding good and a few tweaks were needed but it's all working nicely.
