What's different is he has always given free updates, it's part of the appeal of the product. And I don't have to change the oil.
Wha'd'ya mean you're not changing the oil?! Oh, man...

I've been wondering what that burning smell was..it has oil in it.... shit, maybe that's why the fan is so loud lol.
The INSANE number of updates are certainly NOT "baked" into the price of the unit. Unless of course, you believe Cliff is an idiot who can't calculate the math (because at this rate if it is he must have not only gotten the build parts for free from the manufacturers they also must be paying him a ridiculous amount to use said parts as well. And he must value his hourly rate coding and such at a very steep negative number)...
The reality is Cliff is a proud father, a man that continually nurtures his child and gives it all his attention and energy, only wanting the best for it. We, the FAS faithful, are merely the lucky recipients of one man's quest for utter perfection for his mechanical progeny.
The software isn't the product, it's the "gift". The gift that never seems to quit giving, which is what the entitled cling to. You, me and everyone else bought the UNIT. That physical box is what took your ducats- the updates have simply been a blessing. As many have said, when the latest version of the box is maxed out I'll buy the next (I started with the Ultra, then bought the II when it was released and then the XL, all new straight from the company- I'm really curious how many of the complainers did the same and how many bought secondhand at a discount), not only because I want to continue to bask in the glow of Cliff's genius but also because I want to support the company and the man who has so graciously and generously supported us as musicians for all these years.
Glad you like it!!Sounds awesome - I am getting that one too

Well, if we insist on playing the bad analogy game, Macs from 2009, which is two years before the Axe 2 was even announced, can load the latest macOS. Personally, I don't consider most of these other tech references analogous, though, so tounge in cheek, don't ya know.Man I am pissed! I just took my PC from 1988 in and they couldn't update the software!
I guess you win this bad analogy gameWell, if we insist on playing the bad analogy game, Macs from 2009, which is two years before the Axe 2 was even announced, can load the latest macOS

Thanks Cliff! It's great to have that flexibility and I never use the 'edge' on my real HOOK amp here.. so this will be welcome! Thanks so much for putting al your time and effort in making this work!I've added the clean channel and the rhythm and lead channels with the Edge switch off. There will be a total of six models, two from each channel.

Well you are so right...now I am going to STFU and play guitar and suggest you purchase the XL+ instead of telling me what bells and whistles I can do without so that you have a great sunny day.Well, if we insist on playing the bad analogy game, Macs from 2009, which is two years before the Axe 2 was even announced, can load the latest macOS.

As someone with several Macs I can say they are the worst to upgrade. Every major OSX update has slowed down my machines. I refuse to do it anymore. So while it make technically work, it doesn't work well.
...well said...Stayed quiet 'till now, but the above is generally where I'm at. Take the FREE updates when and IF they arise.
Can't remember any small print stating " buy this axe fx Mk1/Mk2 and you'll be guaranteed update, after update, after update". I, personally thought I was buying a product at that time, not what it could become. Please correct me if this small print was indeed present and I just missed it.
Yeah but you threw the fish (reference to bad tv commercial). I agree and I also apologize for being cranky...I need my supplements!Guys: Let's not derail this super productive thread with an OS debate. We're only like one step away from politics from which there will be no return and the inevitable lock. Let's continue fighting amongst ourselves and chasing our tails on the firmware issue..
Save us Cliff Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope.
