This update SLAYS. Just came from FW 24.05. Busted out my 80's reissue explorer. Loaded my "Kill em' all" preset (JcM 800 mod with a rat pedal) and DAAYUM. I'm no algorithm expert but I "hear" colors and spices and I am a knob tweaker and audiophile (pun intended) Much more scratchy & pronounced "attack" (which is what one goes for with kill em all tones) chugs and gallops are more "angry" and organic/ percussive. More "thud" in the lows without sounding congested. If I can correlate what Cliff did with seasonings/ spices...he added more crush, spank, spark, and soul😎💪 I almost had to remove my brains from the wall when chug/galloping the 4 horsemen. A few tweaks and you can even get into Gary Holt/ Wicked era Zakk Wylde territory too. Loving it guys!!

Yeah sure! Share these awesome preset(s) or it didnt happen!

Cheers 🍻
 
Last night I upgraded to this beta and also reloaded the factory presets all banks file.

When I go to a preset now, the save button is lit up in Axe Edit. I thought the new firmware loaded automatically and wasn’t triggering any preset to save when choosing old presets?

Not sure if this is a "bug" or not ..., but I was comparing the values between the Plexi 100W 1970 and the Plexi 50W 6CA7 Jumped and I was converting the parameters from the 6CA7 to the 1970 ....

I could change the Excursion Time & Recovery Time, but I could not save those parameter changes. Everytime I left that Amp and then returned to it, the values reverted back to the stock values ....


Excursion Time - 2.280 ms ( stock ) / 2.240 ( adjusted )
Recovery Time - 6.12 ms ( stock ) / 3.08 ( adjusted )

Can confirm......just tried here.....was able to save preset with changed parameters, but it reverted back to the original after going to another preset and back.

Front panel or Edit?
 
I finally got a chance to update and play around with the new beeeta last night. I wanted to check out all my go-to amp models, but I never made it past the 6G4 Super. Just wow. I usually avoid adjectives like organic and chewy when describing amp tones, but those are the words that kept popping in my head while I played. And there's something about the bottom end that just sounds so much more natural and amp-like. I can't wait to check out the high gainers tonight.

The best example I've heard to compare FW24 to FW25. If you know AC/DC, you'll hear his recording go from a bit harsh, to spot on.
