RELEASE NOTES

VERSION 1.10.00
SEPTEMBER 28, 2021

Current Axe-Fx III Firmware Version: 17.00

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
  • Mac version requires OS version 10.7 or newer
  • Windows version requires Windows 7 or newer
  • Minimum firmware version 3.02

NEW IN THIS VERSION

* Support for firmware 17.00
o Updated the IR Capture view and the CAB and IR PLAYER blocks to support FullRes(tm)
o Updated DRIVE layouts for "Valve Screamer VS9" and "Maxoff 808".
o Added "FAS Buttery" to the AMP layouts

* The Manage Presets and Manage Cabs dialogs have been combined into one tabbed dialog. The existing shortcuts and top-level Tools menu items will launch the Manage dialog with the respective tab selected. The Axe-Fx III mark II will show an additional tab for the FullRes bank when running firmware 17.

* Reordered the items in the TOOLS menu.

* Updated the internal Fractal-Bot to version 3.0.10, which adds support for FullRes(tm) IRs.

* Corrected a bug in the Library's "Save" routine in which the latest firmware version was not being updated in the currently selected Library entry.

* Corrected an issue in the Leveling Panel in which the Modifier state of the Out 1 and 2 levels were not being displayed.

* Corrected the display of the ToneMatch block's slot. It was displaying as a zero-based index instead of a one-based index.

* Added FM9 preset import functionality. Axe-Change now includes searching the FM9 presets by selecting "FM9" from the device dropdown.

* Added "All Scenes" submenu to the Channel control's context menu.

* Added Preset+Cab Bundle. A Preset+Cab Bundle contains one preset plus any User Cab Impulse Responses (IRs) used by that preset. Bundles make it easier to share sounds and are easy to export and import. The Preset+Cab Bundle functionality requires firmware 17 or greater.
o To export a Bundle, use the Preset / "Export Preset-Cab Bundle" menu. This will display the "Export Preset+Cab Bundle" dialog. IRs that this preset refers to but does not use are excluded but can be included manually by checking them. Examples include IRs that are muted or channels that are not referred to by any scene. Factory cabs cannot be exported/checked.
o To import a bundle, use the Presets / "Import Preset" menu or drag-and-drop a bundle file onto the editor's main Preset display. This will display the "Import Preset+Cab Bundle" dialog. This dialog unpacks a Preset-Cab Bundle and saves it ready-for-use to your Axe-Fx III. A Preset+Cab Bundle contains one preset plus all of the User Cab impulse Response (IRs) it requires. To proceed, you must select a location to save each of the items within the Bundle. The preset will be updated automatically to refer to the location(s) you selected for the IRs.
 
Does it matter which one we update first, Axe FX or Axe Edit? If not, would it be "better" to do one before the other?

Awesome
 
Hi Michael,

How to import fullres IR (wav format) into scratchpad ( for mark I) ? I've tried with cab manager but it seems that it imports as a regular IR and not full res ( the sound and the cpu usage are different than 2 free irs imported with fractal bot)

Thanks

Edit the CAB block in the editor. Select the Scratchpad in either slot 3 or 4 of the CAB block. Drag and drop and FullRes IR onto the name field (a yellow dotted line will appear where you need to drop the file). The file will import into the selected Scratchpad location.

I like the new tabbed Manager window! Very snazzy! :)
