Axe-Fx III Firmware 25.00 Public Beta (Cygnus X-3)

[Karl Houseknecht]

Added “Sunrise Splendor” Drive model. Existing model renamed “Sunrise Splendor Hi-Cut” to denote that the Hi-Cut switch is engaged.

Thank you! I'm excited for this one to trickle down to the FM9!

Big change, this is! (Plexi 6ca7 at same amp settings: reset block, bass to 2, treble to 10) Short Reamp test with just the 6ac7 and fw24 and 25, new is bouncy, fuzzier.

Factory presets are not part of the firmware

@yek I meant a new preset release. Was just curious.

Thank you @FractalAudio for the continued dedication to your customers!

Hi @FractalAudio

the "Bright" slider in the revv gen red 3 add gain like the shred mode of a jp2c (in a way), is it a normal behavior?

 

[REDD]

I tried this firmware today on my main preset and I reset the amp block and it had more treble and less bass so I adjusted it accordingly and it sounds great! Thanks!

Why am I scared to comment?

Don’t be. If someone says something to you that you don’t like, click their name and click the Ignore button that appears, even me.

We all have our own opinions. This is a decades-old community and history has chiseled some people’s reactions to words on a screen.

post your opinions. That’s what keeps Fractal great: the inclusion of user feedback.

All in! Did a soft reset on all 1000+ presets. No retreat no surrender. It’s sounding great. Will tweak as needed.

i streamed. it was fun. we laughed. we cried. we CHUGGED.

Joke appart that’s cool to restart from scratch. You rediscover the model and sometimes do better than before.

That’s what I always liked with analog stuff : you are not afraid to turn knobs to experiment, where everything is more « static » with presets, multi effects etc. You create your preset and sleep on it for a while

kinda old school too... turn on amp, wait for the tubes to warm up, dial in a new sound based on what was there yesterday.

Hey! Just curious, did you use big stubby picks in your video? What was your pickups change? LP std?

 

[Thomas Obester]

Here´s one more - EVH Stealth model "in the room" sound.

This is R9, where I had custombuckers and now installed WCR Godwood bridge pickup and Crossroads in the neck.

Is this the reason or Cliffs motivation for the new FW25?

I should motivate Angus Young to say "Modelers never sound like AC/DC"
