Show Us Your AX8 Rig! (post your pics)

Are you serious?

You are trying to imply that if the unit ships with one FW revision behind that they then have poor QC? Give me a break. That is not a QC issue at all.

Checking for latest updates is user responsibility and part of the initial setup for any product that contains user upgradable software.

It's still not acceptable. The techs missed this. It's been crazy around here with all the orders but that's no excuse. I'll talk to them tomorrow and make sure they check the firmware rev. prior to shipping.

Mine came with 6.01, don't berate them too hard. Glad it's been crazy, growth is good.

Thank you for you reply, Im sure it was mass and all not to mention your product is f- amazing ... FYI I use to ship computer equipment it was a cardinal sin not to take the time to insure latest FW was shipped as the scientists the received it were way to busy to deal with it, with that said for me all all I wanted to do was plug it in and play but I was prompted with a upgrade so at that point I was like "Oh really? darn well OK just do it" then it and 20 minutes later was late and now my creativity was gone and so was my day... or evening if you will... Thanks for being so honest!

Chers Dave,

I've never been prompted with an upgrade on any of my AxeFx units or the Ax8. Axe-Edit prompts me when it has an update and Fractalbot shows when there is new firmware and it only takes about 7 or 8 minutes to load max. you don't need the latest firmware to dig in. Fractal products have always been good on any firmware. Have fun with your new toy.

320 minutes later???? Well I guess if I'd been that slow of mind I'd be pissed off too. But never having had the opportunity to update the firmware on any gear before I found going from V4.00 to V5.00 less then a week after I got my FX8 Mk II to be an amazing eye opening experience, and guess what ...........it only took a matter of minutes. And I certainly ain't bitchin about it. The very fact that the folks at Fractal are SOOOO on top of updates and corrections is not something you need to come on the forum and piss and moan about. Learn the machine AND learn to deal with the fact that it's going to be CONSTANTLY updated, It is the very nature of Fractal.........CONSTANT IMPROVEMENT.
