Axe-Fx II Quantum Firmware Release Notes


*******************************************************************************

4.00

Improved power tube plate current vs. grid voltage accuracy. New models more accurately reflect how the response is higher order at lower grid voltages and “relaxes” into a lower order response at higher grid voltages. This improves feel when the virtual power amp is overdriven and improves harmonic content accuracy.

Note that existing presets will NOT be affected. Any existing preset will have its local Modeling Version (under the Adv tab of the Amp block) adjusted to its previous value. To use the new modeling you will need to set the Modeling Version parameter to “Latest”. Any new presets that are created will use the Modeling Version selected in the Global menu. For example, if an existing preset was using Q3.xx modeling it will still use Q3.xx. To use Q4.00 you would need to set the Amp block Modeling Version to “Latest”. If you create a new preset and the Global menu Modeling Version is “Latest” the new preset will use Q4.00 modeling.

this part is SUPER COOL.
 
Million thanks Cliff and FAS team!!!
Do we need to reset the amb block?

Thank you for your continued commitment to the development of the Axe-FX II and associated products. I came to the Axe late in life ( now 67) but consider my purchase to be the best musical puchase I've ever made. The fact that you continue to pursue improvement and make that available through free upgrades is just mind-blowing. I guess my playing days are somewhat numbered now but just wanted to add my thanks along with the rest of the Fractal family. I regret that I may not be around for the breakthroughs of the future. All the best to the Fractal team from a grateful Aussie.
