If I deselect and select a boogie amp, will that change only the parameters that were adjusted with the FW upgrade, or will all the parameters default including tonestack?
.
BTW I tried loading a second boogie amp in one of my existing boogie patches, but the second one didnt have new values; the sag was still at 0% on the lonestar
That's not totally true.Maybe not relevant, but I think if you can't start from scratch with an amp for fear of losing a ton of intricate advanced settings, you might have the wrong amp to begin with. Of course I understand everyone's specifics are different, but resetting amps shouldn't be a huge headache, especially in Quantum.
Are some of the amp models tweaked or fine tuned by Cliff before they go out?
If so, I want to see and hear what those values are before I go and dumb them down with a reset.
Sure. That'd be the specific situation I referenced.That's not totally true.
Some people like to have a "Custom Amp" based on a specific amp Brand/Model, just like some people like to mod their real amps
There were no changes to the modeling. It was just some bug fixes.
I thought I noticed a good bit more thump in the MkIIc+!Mark I/II:

IMHO the Mesa models are the cat's fuzzy backside now...
Also check out the Carol-Ann models because they're just really good amps and sound even better now.
Got to play with 3 a little bit last night, and that spitty nastiness is gone on the marks. man the triaxis yellow channel caught my ear, it's really thick sounding. Glad I spoke up even if some people took my meaning wrong. Bravo Cliff.
Yes, Lead 2 Yellow is supposed to sound the same as the IICX, IIRC, but I've always preferred the Yellow.
Easier to dial in too IMHO.
Sure. That'd be the specific situation I referenced.
But from helping people with their axe for 7+ years now, I know people grab a recto when they really want a Marshall, and change all the advanced parameters to get close to "that sound."
