    All Gain Tones sound fuzzy/buzzy?

    Perhaps try reinstalling firmware? I had an experience once where the amp block sounded really off after an update even though that wasn't expected to happen based on the nature of the update. I decided to try reinstalling the firmware update and that did the trick.

    Your top 5 brutal metal amp models

    My main go-to is the Atomica High, but a surprisingly great sounding model for brutal high-gain tones is also the Hot Kitty model. Another surprisingly good one is the 1959SLP Jumped model - you can get brutal rhythm tones while retaining dynamics that a lot of other models lack.

    Wish Impedance curve capture with user slots.

    Bump to +1. It would be amazing to have this feature

    FM3 FM3 PRS Archon (Necrophagist-Diminished to B cover)

    Epitaph is one of my favorite albums of all time. What amp model and IR are you using?

    Favorite Drive pedal with High Gain Amp

    The FAS Boost is one of my favorites. I also really like the Precision Drive - this one has less of a signature sound and can be tweaked to shape your tone flexibly. A lot of people also like the Grinder boost in the preamp page of the amp block, but I find that it cuts out too many frequencies...

    IRs York Audio Master Thread - Newest Cab Pack: KW 412 M25-SH

    These are the best T75 IRs I've used, hands down. Pairing it with the Brit Silver model is getting me great results!

    IRs York Audio Master Thread - Newest Cab Pack: KW 412 M25-SH

    I'm playing around a ton with the Mesa cabs right now, especially the 4x12 traditional (I'm partial to mix 13 in particular). I find that it's suitable for a wide variety of amp models. The Bogner cab is great for getting thunderous low end while maintaining an aggressive and clear midrange...

    IRs York Audio Master Thread - Newest Cab Pack: KW 412 M25-SH

    These are the best sets of IRs I've used. I love the consistency between different IRs of the same set - you really get the sound and feel of the cab in each IR, instead of different IRs almost sounding like they came from different cabs even though they were captured using just one cab (I've...

    Low Gain

    I would also try reinstalling the current firmware or updating to a newer firmware. I had an odd issue when I first installed firmware 11.0 where none of my presets sounded similar to how they did before, and certain blocks were behaving strangely (e.g., raising drive in a drive block would...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 11.00

    Not sure if this is a bug, but I'm noticing that the output level of the FET Preamp drive block changes DRAMATICALLY with changes in the Drive level under Firmware 11. Is this intentional? It actually feels like the Drive level is changing the output level of the entire preset instead of simply...

    Your favorite traditional 2x12 guitar cab

    This is also my favorite. I wish more IR producers would capture Port City cabs with a variety of speakers. 3 Sigma Audio has IRs of this cab and a Port City 4x12 with V30s, and I'm currently using those IRs the most.

    IR Length

    I experimented with reducing the IR length on one of my patches last night. Doing so seems to cut some top end and focus the overall sound more (more apparent with heavy overdrive), which I think sounds better at gig-level volumes. I've been searching for something that would easily let me focus...

    What you top 5 fav Amps in the Box at the moment ?

    The ones I currently love the most are: 5F8 Tweed AC-20 12AX7 Bass Angle Severe 2 Carol-Ann Triptik Modern FAS Skull Crusher (I don't see much discussion on this model. This model with the FAS Boost input boost is killer for tight high-gain rhythm tones)

    Port City possibly getting into to FRFR game

    This is somewhat off topic, but I would love to see some professionally shot Port City IRs... Please consider releasing them!
