This is a problem for me. Had to go back to 5.01. I will wait for the final version. Maybe it will be better optimized. In FM3, each 1% of CPU is very important.

Considering there are improvements made I doubt itā€™ll go down in the final version by much if any.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm right one the edge with several core presets, so I guess I'll wait and hope for some optimization. :rolleyes:

Agree. Not trying to rub it in, but to keep wanting the advanced Axe FX III features is inevitably going to increase CPUā€¦IMO. Believe me I understand rebuilding presets and working with the new situation is not an easy or desirable endeavor, but may be needed to continue on. I find the improved features worth the trouble.

This could be something to mess with to see if you can make presets work that previously are over CPU.

ā€œAllow changing a block out if it will lower the CPU usage, even if the new total usage exceeds the limit.ā€

I went for it after doing a backup, looking forward to setting up some bass guitars! Thanks FAS team.

I think it will be worth it for you to give it a try since the low frequency ā€œdigital distortionā€ was a major issue you were struggling. I hope itā€™s fixed! I have yet to get home to load it.

Edit:
The one thing I love about the FAS stuff is their super utility software. As long as I back up everything along with their on board ā€œsafe modeā€ start up itā€™s just about impossible not to get back to a previous working state.

Excellent! I'm still relatively new to this FM3 but how stable are the beta releases? Should I just wait for 5.02 stable in other words? I am really interested in the fix for the noise on bass guitars.

When I was new to my Axe III, I passed on the betas. But once I became familiar with how to back everything up, I tried a few and was fine. I still watch the forums to see what kinds of bugs, if any, are being reported, and still avoid certain beta releases, if I feel there's still a bit of work to do. Fortunately Cliff seems to get them ported to Release Candidates rather fast. YMMV
 
Vitrual capo sounds a bit odd to me, sometimes delayed, sometimes like tremolo effect. Anyone else hear that? Also had some issues with computer audio not playing out my FM3/monitors.
