Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 2.01 Public Beta Zwei

2.01
Further improvement of preamp tube models based on measurements. The existing theoretical models, i.e. “Modern”, “Vintage”, etc., have been removed. There are now six extremely accurate preamp tube types: 12AX7A, ECC83, 7025, 12AX7B, ECC803 and EF86. Note that the EF86 type has been normalized to have roughly the same gain as the triode types.

  • Improved power tube saturation modeling. This yields warmer, “tubier” distortion. The PA Hardness parameter is automatically set for each power tube type but may be overridden if desired.
  • Improved tube interaction modeling. A new parameter, “Harmonics”, controls the amount of interaction. Higher values yield softer distortion. The default value is set for each amp model but may be overridden.
  • Improved virtual output transformer saturation modeling.
  • Change “Thru” bypass mode so that effect input is muted. This prevents, for example, delays from creating echoes when engaged.
  • Added “Invert” mic type to Cabinet block. This inverts the signal allowing for interesting effects in conjunction with the delay parameter.
  • Fixed Reverse Delay being modulated slightly for long delay times.
  • Fixed Mr Z MZ-8 amp model sounding “off”.

danke, danke Herr Chase!

Now, I have to play hooky for a bit and go plug in ...
 
Thank you, I haven't reloaded or reset the amp blocks, but the harmonic content of distortion definitely sounds different, in a very pleasing way, and seems to be giving me better string definition on the lower strings too. However this could all be just a placebo effect.
Don't care I love it !!!

I install latest version and it seems to work fine. I had to reset my amp blocks, and upon resetting them the sound was improved. I use the be models and they sounded fuller and I had to adjust the tones somewhat. I also noticed the gain was different, where I had to increase the gain a little to where I had it set before. Anyone else notice this ? All in all things sound good.
