Axe-Fx III Factory Presets for firmware 27.03

[dr bonkers]

Just tried the Dr. Bonkers Rock Bass Preset - with my passive PU equipped Basses this Preset clips the Output.
I have to reduce the Output Block about 16dB to get a normal Volume in the preset leveling Tool. (Maybe it's better to fix the individual blocks to get a good gain staging...)
Also there are 8 different Scenes, but they all have no text-title and are also not leveled greatly to each other.
I can fix this myself, but maybe someone will bring it in form for the final release!

This is in level with all my other presets that I have ever released with no complaints about their levels.

They were pretty even when tested with a Rickenbacker 4003, Squier Jaguar bass, Ibanez Mikro bass, and Les Paul Triumph bass.

Presets have level controls so that you can put them in line with your equipment.

I don't think many people are going to run their basses through Hells Glockenspiels and other guitar presets anyways.

For the first time I feel the factory presets are very close to "usable" out of the box for me. Im now able to tweak for 30 seconds and use every preset I tried, about 30 of them. Theyve never been in the ballpark for me, awesome work!

Is there a way this presets could work for the fm3?

They have said there will be updated presets for FM3 when the final firmware drops

Finally, levels are generally consistent. Thank you!

This Preset is absolute fantastic and also if you have no Pedal the ADSR Scenes are pure fun.

You have to download the renewed Version, do a init with the blue circle near the search field in the preset browser and have fun with Preset No 294 - "Harmonic Feedback"!

It’s Preset 293 for me.

Can’t wait to try it out, gotta go clear my driveway of the 6 inches of crap that fell from the sky last night first tho…

South of Hartford CT here. I used to love the snow when I was a kid, then along came adulthood.

Hey guys ! Now that firmware 28 is public, I'm sharing the new compressor settings for all my personal presets in the factory presets. That's for the presets where there is a compressor block before the amp. All channels work, I would use channel A most of the time. Cheers !

Is the fw 28 will change something for best or worst to the factory presets?

You already asked this in the firmware thread and got multiple answers...

 

[BigAl47]

sorry for that

Is it just me or are the compressors a wee bit over the top now ?

Did you read the 28.00 release notes?

Assuming you're referring to under that FW...

Big changes to the Compressor block.

yes I did, I did not expect that much of a change. I feel like the compressors are dimed.

Hmm need to check that out.
I don't usually want to actually hear a compressor.

I feel like I've lost all dynamics.

Even with low compression?
Pre or post amp?
Clean?

Cleans are where i most often use compression, don't need it on driven tones.

Before the amp, have not tried post. I use it for cleans mostly. Sounds crushed, dirty and like my old dyna comp dimed. I will switch back to previous firmware and wait for tweaks.

Which compressor(s)?
Have you tried others, maybe with the release notes in hand?
