    Axe-Fx III Firmware 31.04 Public Beta

    Noticed a similar thing with drive blocks engaged.

    **** I have a Dual rectifier Rev D !!!!

    As long as it didn't blow up 👍

    **** I have a Dual rectifier Rev D !!!!

    Probably modified then - next to the plug it says 120v

    **** I have a Dual rectifier Rev D !!!!

    Looks like US transformer spec (120v) - are you using it with a step-down trafo?

    Input gate tames a little high end?

    To me, "intelligent" added an unnatural feel to the transients, so I switched to "classic". YMMV, of course.

    Power amp options for real cab

    It would be interesting to see / feel the difference between a purifi module with and without the extra capacitance box. I was considering going the Purifi route a while back but ended up getting a Hypex NC252MP all-in-one board. While it's a drastic improvement upon the PS170 I had before in...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    To be fair, it's not completely outlandish to jump to amp model changes as the source of tonal difference in this particular context since the release notes state that there's an adjustment of power tube parameters.

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    In my experience, going from 27.03 to 28.00, the improvement was significant - in 27.03, I had to do a lot of low cuts in almost all amp models to tame the bloated low end, whereas in 28, I could remove all the cuts and still get a full yet tight sound. If you have any low cuts anywhere, I...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    Ok - I think I figured out the culprit. Actually, potentially there are two. 1. I was routing the signal from Reaper only to the left input channel (OUT 6/7). After routing it to both (OUT7/8), the tracks look (almost) identical. 2. The other thing I noticed (as per suggestion of @Chromatizm)...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    It's the identical preset (just amp and cab active) - I just checked all the settings page screenshots and all the values are the same (including input and output blocks). For a second I was doubting my reamping setup but I just loaded fw28.01 again and the low end response just feels anemic in...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    It's the exact same preset on both firmwares. I don't understand where the difference should come from if nothing was changed for those models.

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    If it's just a matter of my preference, that's fair enough. However, something does seem to be different between the two versions. One can question how objective this assessment is and whether there is user error on my part but I thought that it might be worth bringing up as feedback...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    Perhaps there's something else at play then? This is a comparison clip (second clip is fw28.01 reamped using the DI from the first).

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    For example Cameron Atomica and 5150 III Blue (100W) - but I also experience it with two different plexi variants, albeit to a lesser extent.

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.01 Release

    @FractalAudio is it possible to revert the power tube parameter changes somehow? Based on my perception, backed up by some comparison recordings, fw28.00 sounds more "juicy" / resonant compared to the more "drier" sounding 28.01.
