Axe-Fx III Firmware 28.00 Public Beta (Beta 4)

[FractalAudio]

JFET rack-> optical post amp/cab for a bass tone is

That's the classic formula.

Any tips on how to approach something like Carl Martin Andy Timmons compressor with this update? I know how he's using it in general (more like a boost with light compression) but not sure what's the type of compressor, how attack\release should behave, etc

Andy's Carl Martin compressor is very much based on the compressor/limiter pedal from Carl Martin, which was my main compressor before I switched to fractal. It is very much a studio style comp. Start with the Studio FB compressor, ratio between 2 and 4, slow attack and response (maybe 20-50 and 100-300 ms)

Cool

I have redo the compressor block for almost 200+ presets for guitar and bass today, because the sound changed a lot with this update.

Yes changed in a Huge way for the better

More aggressive-sounding comps, the PowerBooster, the Fuzz-flavors.... these are so incredibly useful to me! Thank you, Fractal!

A few tones here

huge pressure to say to hell with waiting for the full release and jump in the deep end now.

Not really .., when a new firmware starts out in private beta and then goes public beta it’s usually pretty stable ….

And I’m not sure, but I think Leon is already a beta tester !

The new compressors are spectacular! The vibe, the recent drive block overhall/additions, a myriad of other refinementswe too numerous to mention, we truly are spoiled! Thank you Cliff!!

And even then the meticulously executed changes are affecting the sound (to my ears at least ).

for sure I've downloaded and used many beta FWs in the past and had no regrets.... but I'm talking about the personal pressure I'm putting on myself to just wait for the full FW release.. call it the FW "delayed gratification" method.

Awesome! Best product support in history! Can't wait to try this out.

• Added Knee Type to allow varying the knee shape.

As Elvis used to say: THANKYOUVERYMUCH!

Compressors galore — gotta love it!

 

[Zedhed]

There's only one other thing that is as impressive as Firmware updates....

How quickly Leon is all over them and out with a video!
