Have you gone back & played through your GT-Pro recently?
9.00
Added eight “scenes” to each preset. Each scene allows for different combinations of bypass states and X/Y state (if applicable) for the effects. For example, Scene 1 may have everything bypassed while Scene 2 has several effects engaged. Furthermore, Scene 3 may be identical to Scene 2 except that one or more blocks have a different X/Y state. Scenes allow the user to easily switch between various combinations of bypass and X/Y states within a given preset.
I went up to 9 and played for an hour or so, lots of patches factory and mine.
Everything felt a bit stiffer.
I switched back to 8.01 and thing felt better.
Any thoughts?
Could it be some global setting thing?
Thanks, Chris
Maybe I needed to word this question better.
I am not saying that it is a case of the firmware just not suiting my taste or that I don't like it.
I am asking is it possible that while updating some parameter got set to a default or set in a strange way?
Example, could the noise gate have gotten turned up very high.
Like I said in my op 9 felt stiff not tighter but more strident, less sustain.
Has anyone else had this experience or might have any insite?
Thanks for your help
Chris
Ps I may try to reinstall the firmware later today and see what happens.
This is fantastic!
Thanks Cliff and all the good people @ FAS.
I have one question:
What is the difference between "Scenes" select and having 2 (or 3 or more) presets with the same idea (heaving different combinations of bypass states and X/Y state) ?
In other words, I can do the different combination of FX engaged or not with few presets, correct ?
Of course using Scenes will allow "save space" of presets but it's not that there is lack of storage (3 banks with 128 storage space each…).
as has been said, you don't need to go back. go to the global menu and change it to the poweramp modeling of your choice.I went up to 9 and played for an hour or so, lots of patches factory and mine.

Scenes = gapless switching.
You can switch between the poweramp modeling algorithms with out downgrading the software. You can choose from the 7,9, or 9 modeling algorithms in the global menu.
If an option to be able to change scenes with an assignable CC number was added it would really be great for us with ground control pro controllers (or similar ). Cliff is that a possible option or do we need to update our controllers ?
Scenes are totally awesome just wish I could use them.
Thank you
What we've done since this beta release is made three CCs to control scenes:
34: Scene Select. CC Value selects scene.
123: Scene Increment. Any value over 64 increments the scene.
124: Scene Decrement. Any value over 64 decrements the scene.
So it is possible to step up and down with two IAs through scenes within a certain preset? If so, would it be possible to cycle through .... 1 to 8, after 8 again 1 ... would save an IA switch ... just thinking ...
But didn't you tell us your hearing was shot or "not up to standard" anymore...?I still prefer the version 7xx power amp modeling (my high gain tones sound more focused, punchier, and just overall better with it than with 8 or 9), but since there is the option in the Global menu, there's no reason for me to bitch.

will there be a feature to select a scene individually rather than sequentially?
and...
would scene selection become available via a modifier?
because this could be seriously powerful
