Upgrading from the Ultra to the Ax8

I've had the Axe Fx Ultra for 10 years and it's time to get the Ax8 it looks like it will suit my needs better. Is the gap during changing presets more on the Ax8 than the Ultra (the ultra has never bothered me in that respect) What are some other things I should be aware of?

Something is causing my GCP power supplies to stop working

I had a power supply go on me on Sunday. I bought a new one once I realised it was the power supply at fault, it was over 10 years old so I assumed it just gave up the ghost. The new one has worked for about 10 mins and then nothing. I've just done a quick pin to pin check on my 7 pin...

Memory Corruption again

and again it looks like the internal battery is to blame. I very rarely unplug my axe fx from the mains. But had to this week and some of my favourite patches were silent. I investigated to find, shunts missing or the mix parameter had changed from mix=0% to some patches plain missing. I...
