3.01 is now available:
https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/fm3-firmware-version-3-01.168482/

A new version of FM3-Edit is also available: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/fm3-edit-1-02-01.168368/

Release Notes:
• Amp modeling updated to match Axe-Fx III firmware 15.01.
o Improved Power Amp Modeling. The new algorithm yields accurate dynamic frequency response which results in clearer bass and extended highs. More “chug”, “thump” and “chime”. NOTE: Existing presets should be auditioned. While the overall tone isn’t significantly changed, the transient frequency response is enhanced which may alter the tonal perception.​
o Improved output transformer modeling in Amp block. For typical values of Transformer Drive the difference is subtle but mathematically more accurate adding a pleasing low-end growl and improving “tightness” _in high-gain sounds. For high values of Transformer Drive the difference is more pronounced. If you have increased Transformer Drive on your presets above the default value then you should audition your presets.​
• Fixed Depth control not working on some amp models.
• Fixed erratic flashing of Tempo LED.
• Fixed random flashing of front panel LEDs.
• Added “Tuner on Heel Down” to MIDI/Remote/Other. When the value of the specified controller goes below 5%, the tuner will be displayed automatically. Typically you would set this to the same CC# or pedal used for volume control so the tuner will come on automatically when the volume pedal is pulled back.
• Fixed issue with modifiers on the Amp block causing audio artifacts and drop outs.
• Fixed imported Tone Matches not working correctly.
• Fixed crashing with some imported Axe-Fx III presets.
• Fixed issue causing audio drop out when changing the input gate type.
• FC: Fixed an issue causing “CFG ERR” to be displayed in some footswitch configurations.

Ran into some quirks trying to back up the FM3 and then trying to send the update, where I had to hard restart twice.

Closed FM3 Edit and that did the trick.
