You've probably already read this but it bears repeating: ALWAYS make a backup of your Axe-Fx before installing new firmware. Then if for some reason you decide you don't like the new firmware, it only takes a few minutes to roll back to the previous version.
Yeah, I didn’t used to do that, but I started when I got the 2XL last year and have since been in the habit. Thanks for looking out though. I appreciate it.
I noticed and noted to beta team that the ENGL sound changed from
Clock rate was my 1st check in advance of posting. To clarify; I used the Virtual Capo as a 12 string sim with the mix set around 50%. I expect that a clock rate issue would effect both the dry and wet simultaneously. Just to be sure I am not having a Homer moment, I used the headphones out - the issue remains the same. I verify that the Detector= Block IN. I thought I knew this machine pretty well - is there some other possible cause? Maybe a calibration value somewhere? The Harmony block works as expected. Very odd indeed.
Like I said above, today is the first time I’ve messaged, off topic, but I saw your name and wanted to tell you I just bought your Live Gold pack and watched your tutorials. I love the pack and it has actually helped me better understand the process and am better at making my own now. Great work. Thank you.
Happening on the Angle Severe 1 & 2 as wellBUG
I have a broken preset that uses the Energyball amp model, not only does it sound very different than before the update, if I adjust the Depth control value to 0 it crashes my axe fx and I have to restart it to get audio out again.
To reproduce, just create a patch with Energyball and reduce the depth to 0.
Hopefully an easy fix
I thought you said the Engl did it too...
"Bad enough" is up to you. If the update thread still reports issues, I wait them out. The previous FW's still have so much great stuff going on, that I'm ok being a bit more patient to get the latest goodies.
Engl severe yes, and also the Engl energyball. But if you don’t turn depth down in both all the rest works normally
DUH!! I forgot the Angle IS the Engl.
I also use the presence at zero ... same reason, but - imho - the new model has more and more defined bass and the presence works as it should work (one more time, imho). I´m happy with the new model and for me it´s way more easy to find my sound.
Already got used to it. Still sounds great. No matter, which High Gainers I try, I always come back to the Savage and the 5153.
You are absolutely correct on all points. Thanks for responding. After thinking about it, I still decided to update. I can work around the issues on those two amps for now. (I’m still using enough presets of those amps that I haven’t been making my own adjustments to them very much yet anyhow). If not for that, I would have waited it out like you do.
