Yeah I'm getting some weird side sounds that I think I didn't have before. Actually it was my favorite amp at one point and here's a clip I made with it back then: And here's how it sounds now. This is not the same guitar though so that might be it but I didn't expect there to be such a big difference. In the end of that clip I'm turning the high cut all the way up and down all the time.. I can hear a difference but that's not as big as I remember it being. And... I've never done a backup of my presets and now that I went to my gigging presets they are all blank. EVERYTHING that used global blocks is empty. Feel like quitting.. life.
The problem is so subtle in this recording that you can't hear it at all.
Wondering how something can be more apparent on a playback system with way less bandwidth and way more awkward ferquency response? Maybe some anomalous frequencies doubling up on eachother causing spikes?Yeah I know - but I can tell you when played through a guitar cab it sounds like my son's plastic guitar... You can't stand it for more than a few minutes without going nuts.
Its really hard to compare a naked guitar tone to a full mix. Where is the point on the recording where you don't like the tone?Yeah I'm getting some weird side sounds that I think I didn't have before.

Ouch. Sorry to hear of your loss. To everybody reading this...BACK UP YOUR STUFF!!... I've never done a backup of my presets and now that I went to my gigging presets they are all blank. EVERYTHING that used global blocks is empty. Feel like quitting.. life.
The different guitar you used - is it hotter than the one you used before? Because I realised that the artificial hiss I get intensifies when the pickup has more output.
Can you record the cab sound?Yeah I know - but I can tell you when played through a guitar cab it sounds like my son's plastic guitar... You can't stand it for more than a few minutes without going nuts.
Can you record the cab sound?
Yeah this guitar is definitely hotter. I did compensate with the input volume. I guess if nothing's wrong then this guitar sounds like ass through the AC30 although it is the best guitar I own.
I have a similar problem with the top boost - there is this strange high frequency hiss when chords ring out (using matrix and guitar cab). Sounds artificial...
The preamp sag is tied to Supply Sag so if you turn down Supply Sag you'll get less preamp sag. I'm reticent to add another parameter, there's already so many that new users are bewildered, befuddled and perplexed enough.
Note that the particular AC-30 used for the model has this scratchy high end. This is reflected in the high Dyn Pres value. It's a hand-wired version
Today I reinstalled FW12.03beta5. The strange hiss is gone. Sounds spectacular now.
Which I do not understand...
I installed b5 when it was published. Near the end of the upload process (done via Bot) an error occurred telling me to shut the unit down and restart it. After booting b4 was still on it.
I installed b5 again and everything went fine. Checked in Utilities - b5 was installed.
Then the strange hiss and the early dying of sound occurred.
Today I reinstalled b5 and now all is good.
Very strange...
Sorry to have bothered you with it - should have reinstalled b5 first - but I never thought something might be off after Utilities told me b5 was installed successfully. Very very strange...
That's been a puzzling aspect of the Axe-Fx for me, too. It's the only gear I know where a bad software load can result in odd behavior instead of a dead unit.Today I reinstalled FW12.03beta5. The strange hiss is gone.
