Axe-Fx III Firmware Release Version 16.00 "Cygnus"

[Randalljax]

How about 450 minutes! Poor guy doesn't get paid for his contribution and service. But looking at his wall he's probably doing alright.

True he is an incredible asset to the Fractal community and also extremely generous with his time

dialling in some tones

He did one today but maybe he'll make more.

Curious Did the BE 2020 deluxe make it back in or did it stay removed ?

 

[johnnypig]

Can't tell from the release notes, so I think it's the 2018 for now.

@FractalAudio It's probably an Axe Edit thing, but the saturation switch "on" position isn't doing anything, "On (ideal)" is fine though. I hurt my back trying to pick up my fat cat this morning so I don't want to get up to walk over to my Axe and check.

I hate the thought of retiring at 15.01. But, after trying the final release. It just doesn’t sound as beefy. I feel my presets have more bite and tighter low end with 15.01. Sucks knowing I’ll be missing out on the future amp model and fx updates. But 15.01 is perfect to my ears

 

[SolicitudeOfSound]

This firmware version feels very 'pillowy' in comparison to 15.01
Something in the bottom end. Feels nice on some models and just kinda cloudy on others?

Any thoughts/suggestions?

Same

Same

If we are talking hi gain ,Have you tried Leons trick of low cut in the amp block
changed impedance curves try 5153
turned down the master volume

@Jorock @HeyimJoe
Post presets in a new thread if you want help.

No I haven’t. Did he make a video showing it?

Now if we could get Leon to zip up his whole saved block library and share that!

Episode 2 of "47 minute tones" in the works.

Just a quick take. The VH4 is an amp I know very well. I have played through it many times. The Cygnus version is like someone just gave me the amp. I am using FRFR speakers and a Matrix 800. Bass just past midnight, mids at 10 o clock, treble at 2 o clock. Gain at three o clock. Dizzy V4 Silver 4 into Dizzy V30 57 A1 ML. cab #686. Band volume. (loud) Incredible sound. Also try a 121 Sennheiser miced cab. Great job so far guys.

Have held off from installing the Beta this time, I want to jump into the deep end unprepared now if it could only cure my mancold and put my three kids on pause for the day! Or wait, maybe that’s in the release notes?

Playing guitar makes colds go away. Scientific fact.
