[REDD]

KILLER! I thought firmware Friday was going to slip by but bam! Awesome! Thank you!!! thank you!!! thank you!!!

 

[ApocalypticKatana]

Never enough thank you for your relentless updates

 

[trixdropd]

Thank you

 

[Jonathan Thomas]

Thank you, hard to put into words just how great it is to have something that is constantly supported and constantly improved in the way that the Axe FX is. It's very much appreciated.

 

[Brian Coonan]

Just goes to show regardless of “Fractal Fridays” passing without an update - there is always work being done. Best company to support, and best supported product I’ve ever owned.

Thanks FAS.

Can’t wait to try the od-1. Curious how it compares to my trusty od-3.

I saw "jumped" and was like THIS IS IT......still holding out hope

 

[H3O2]

...and the hits just keep on comin'! Thanks Mr. Chase!

You've got hundreds, if not thousands of dollars worth of reference-class dynamics processing now.

Just when I thought we couldn't have even more an embarrassment of riches, here I am embarrassed all over again.

 

[State of Epicicity]

Thank you so much Cliff and FAS. You guys are completely amazing.

I cannot wait to play with the new gates! We could now create Gates of Hell presets, or a Heaven's Gate preset, if one were so inclined. Bonus if you can work in a reference to the movie, something about a man with a paper asshole...

THANK YOU!!

I wish I understood enough about compressors and the expander to really appreciate how good of an update this is. Sounds like a lot of cool words!

Pretty excited for the Buxom Boost either way!

Edit: Oh hey I missed that they added an Easy Mode for dummies like me! I feel so seen...

 

[AmbientOwl]

How am I supposed to learn the ins and outs of my new toy when you keep updating it? Srsly, thanks!

I feel this deep in my soul. What a wonderful problem to have, though!

 

[allenma]

Best product on the market, no doubt. Thank you Fractal team! I'll update after tomorrow's gig.

 

[Beecher]

I’ve been so wrapped up with the FM3 update I didn’t realize there was a beta for fxiii. I’m going to be busy this weekend. Thank you FAS

 

[Gregmang]

For those wondering if you need a new AxeEdit - I didn’t.

All the new goodies showed up after AE recognized there was new firmware and it went into its automatic update mode.

 

[sskkmm]

Oh man...this is awesome...but I also have barely figured out the existing compressor. Sigh.

Thanks though...never a dull moment in fractalland.

@FractalAudio Thanks for the update. Which IC does your modeled OD-1 have? There are some different ICs (Listed below) that said to be used for OD-1 over the years:

• RC3403ADB
• UA3403PC
• NEC μPC4741C
• JRC4558D (glossy or non-glossy)
• NEC C4558C
• TL4558P
• JRC4558DD (glossy or non-glossy)

 

[Rock Chalk]

I guess we'll see what those who really know about it think, and I don't think this is placebo, but as good as I thought the input gate was before, it seems like it's world-class now......no joke! Bravo FAS !

 

[Rex]

Wow that FF compressor is smooth! Thanks Cliff

Pauly

Seriously, the improvements in the FF compressor are real and immediate. I compared side-by-side with the old version, and you notice the difference immediately.
