Fractal Bot's not picking this up for me, has it been withdrawn?

EDIT: WHAT?! I have to do something for myself?!

Right? The indignity!

You don't need to do it that way any more. Just set it to normal/default, then adjust the percentage down until you don't get the clipping warning any longer.

Using a Music Man Axis, I still get some clipping warnings even with the input at 5%....

Try 4%. Some guys are using 3%.

Gapless? No, but it's pretty damn good with firmware 22. I measure a gap of around 20-40 msec, which IIRC is down from about 30-50 msec previously.

Have you measured the gap between Multiplexer switches, or damping adjusted Scene Controller adjustments? 40ms would be something you could feel more, I'd think. I just couldn't hear it.

Given the behaviour of a typical MV, why do they behave that way?
Do you think it's an oversight in design?
It just makes no sense to have a control that goes to 10 that flubs out at 3.

They do it to make the volume jump up quickly in the music store. “Look how loud this amp is at 3! It must really be powerful!” The other amps have to do it, too, because if they don’t, they sound “weak.” Even the sales staff gets into the act, hyping all that volume at low settings.

Back at home, you hear things like, “I’ve never had this amp above 4. I’d be afraid to play it that loud!,” when in fact, it won’t get much louder, even if you crank it to 11.

The whole MV thing is confusing.
In a lot of amps, it either seems to distort early or you need to turn it up to an ear splitting volume before the 'sound' kicks in, like a Soldano.

The sound “kicks in” when you start pushing the power amp into saturation. That only happens when you’re close to maximum volume.

It's astonishing! I guess this is how they did it back in the 70s

...And the first Dynacabs presets pack ever has been launched hehe, someone wants a beer?

What is pretty mad with the REVV is that it sound good without quite touching nothing

Like with what cab(s)?

 

[Smittefar]

I really like the Revv with the SLO cab

 

[Patzag]

There is one thing I wonder about. Why are the mics usually placed very close to the cab and then EQ is applied in the real world applications? Pulling the mic back is a great way to widen the sound and eliminate the boom & fizz IMHO.

Signal to drums ratio.

Look at @My name is mud with a vendor tag and sig and everything......what took so long?

 

[rr32btg]

Absolutely amazing release! Thanks FAS!

Is there any plans to make Revv blue and green channels?
Will DynaCab And Revv be ported to FM3?

Am I missing it? I can't get the new firmware update prompts when I open fractalbot and I don't see it on the DL page on the website?

Same. There's a download link at the top of the first post in this thread.

I found it. Thank you so much.

Man the REVV is sweet! Using the Mesa 412’s with it. Instant amazing sounds!

You owned or tried one for real?
I don’t know if I will try one day, I never saw one. Here it is 3600 euros (3900 dollars approx)

That’s cool to see all this enthusiasm with a high gain amp! Badlander next?
