AX8-Edit 1.6.0 is now live on the website and auto-update.

http://www.fractalaudio.com/ax8-edit-software-editor.php

Release Notes:

REQUIRES AX8 Firmware Quantum 6.00 or newer.

New Features:
  1. Added support for new Quantum 6.01 firmware.
    1. The WAH block now includes a “Coil Bias” and “Low Cut Frequency” control when connected to Quantum 6.01 or greater devices.
    2. Added “EXIT” to the Function Footswitches. This allows the Function Footswitches to act like the <EXIT> Button. This has primarily been added to allow the user to toggle the LARGE PRESET DISPLAY when it is set to ALWAYS.
  2. Updated the layout of the AMP block’s Dynamics page.
    1. Parameters are now clearly grouped together with additional information in their labels.
    2. Moved the “Comp Type” and “CF Comp” from the Preamp page to the Dynamics page.
  3. On the AMP block’s “Power Sply” page, changed "Pwr Amp Grid Bias" to "Pwr Tube Grid Bias".
Bug Fixes:
  1. Corrected the displaying of tooltips for Windows 10 builds.
  2. Corrected the “Export preset to CSV…” to replace any newline characters in the parameter name with a space.
 
Wow, this is really the business! The updated amp pages - dynamics page in particular, are easier to navigate. Pleased to see picking dynamics is included: Its useful to finesse that initial attack transient on occasion. I'm having way to much fun with the coil bias on the wah. Sold! Wait, it's included in the original purchase price? Swweeeeeeet!

I'm not seeing anyway to set the default scene in AX8 Edit 1.6. Is this not possible?
