    Axe-Fx III 16.00 Beta 11 "Cygnus" Firmware - Public Beta #8

    You guys are mixing sth. up: Linear pots are infamously used in Bogners and are an odd choice. Audio taper however is one form of logarithmic taper and matches hearing perception which is also logarithmic. Edit: Turned out I was the one who mixed things up...at least I learned sth.

    Axe-Fx II "Ares" Rev 2.00 Firmware Release

    After updating to Ares 2.0 a week ago I've since tried several amp models and felt that with some power amp distortion the sound stays more defined and detailed than before. Also the individual character of each amp seems a bit more pronounced. It's little subtle changes, but I really enjoy...

    Wow. The 1960EMTV is pure british bliss. I use it with JS410 Crunch Or/Rd with bass 3.5, middle 4, treble 4.5. Your other free IR's are really great, too. Thanx so much for these, Andy!

    Fractal-Bot 3.00.02

    Why isn't the 32Bit version installed automatically on a 32Bit system when updating fractal bot? Why is the 32Bit version not openly available on https://www.fractalaudio.com/fractal-bot/ ? Isn't this obvious? Or is the linked 32Bit version not official?

    Fractal-Bot 3.00.02

    I did the suggested auto update from v2.11.0 on my Win32 Laptop and had to find out after updating that it's a 64Bit only version. I had to revert back which wasn't easy, because there's no official link to v2.11.0.

    FW10 has really F-d UP my Mesa Patches :( ... lot's of work or back to V6???

    Concerning simeons PEQ settings: I tend to use a wider q(about .5 instead of .7) for the mid freq's (240,750,2200). This seems more musical to my ears, but that's totally a matter of taste.

    .. Was about to order the axe II when

    I'd rather buy a Kemper Profiling Amp than an Ultra. But I'd rather buy the AxeFxII than a Kemper. I owend the Ultra and the Kemper, but the AxeFxII is the ultimate guitar sound machine to me.

    Petrucci rhythm can't cut it.

    V7 bug - tick tick noise corresponding to patch/global tempo

    Struggling with "warmth" on mild gain sounds

    Some possible ways I see: 1. Less treble. More bass. Mid boost. 2. Less 'definition'. 3. Turn down hires (and lores) on the 'SPKR' tab of the amp sim, because the VHT already does these boosts. 3. Turn off poweramp sim by setting damping to zero and tweak from there.
  90. D

    PLEASE HELP. I hate how my axe sounds!!!!

    You have to initialize the amp block in your presets (double click on bypass). This is due to changes of the default values caused by the improved V6 modeling. Did you update to V6 factory presets?
