When installing I ran into a transfer error and Fractal Bot kept telling me that I'd put the Axe-FX into firmware update mode when I didn't... Any tips? Running an XL+ currently on FW19
I am just about to embark upon recording leads for my band's album. I'd like to try Quantum for it, can anyone tell me if there are any particularly glaring errors or issues before I update? Just to save me reading the thread.
I mostly use the Mesa sims (Recto/Mark)
Many thanks!
Did you try adjusting the MV ?Hmm. I tried Quantum last night with the Mark IV (dialled in from scratch) and it was enormously flubby, Cut was the only way I could reduce it and I don't normally have to use that, or a drive block before the amp. The Bass knob, naturally, is run very low. Engaging Bright seemed to help too, but the amp defaults it to off when I remember it defaulting as on before. But it was definitely out of the ordinary levels of flubbiness.
I A/Bed it with a real Mark V into the same cab block, (amp into Cab Clone load box, line-level out (no cab sim) going into Input 1 Rear) with the same ballpark settings and the real amp was tight as hell.
The Quantum Mark IV clips I've heard so far are nowhere near as flubby so do you think I need to reload the firmware? Rolling back to 19 for now.

The uninitiated tend to complain about them but they are dialled in differently to say, a 5150.
Interesting, I'll try that later and post up a comparison clip between the Axe's IV Sim and the Mark V's IV Mode. I guess both are an emulation of the real Mark IV :lol: I think I figured out that USA Lead Brt+ with Fat, Bright and Presence Shift on is the way the V is configured to sound like the IV.
I never had to touch any deep amp controls before to get the Axe to sound tight though. Interesting.
My research led me to believe Extreme mode is as I described the IV mode in the Axe, just with the Presence Shift off. Highs are reduced, midrange kicks up and it gets louder. Exactly what happens on the real V. I know I read on here that the Extreme mode is related to Presence Shift.
Exactly. The only push pull that's pulled out is the fat switch. That's the mode I use on the real Mark IV.
