I updated all the amp blocks when I installed 16.0. Now that I’ve installed beta 16.01, is it necessary to do it again?
Cliff answered this earlier, here is the post:

Does this mean speaker impedance and xformer match and drive in power amp section will behave differently as well apart from the speaker page.Improved output transformer / speaker impedance interaction modeling. This yields more accurate low frequency response. Note that the Transformer LF parameter effectively adjusts the transformer’s inductance. Increase this value to simulate a smaller transformer, decrease to simulate a larger transformer.
Oh yeah I love that Euro Blue so much, it’s a real Beast if you boost it.I had some doubts about FW 16, to be honest, did not manage to get the same satisfaction than with 15.01, but 16.01 has made my faith to come back, this morning I spent maybe too much time with Euro Blue, mostly, and it was really inspiring, really touch sensitive, it destroys any plugin I own (and are a few).
LOVE the new reverb and delay EQ options. Having an adjustable Q for the delay high/low filters is icing on the cake, especially with the Axe-Edit update.
Is the Opera House type modeled on any particular real world space?

Yeah, the Euro Blue and Euro Blue Modern models really shines in the 16.01 updateI had some doubts about FW 16, to be honest, did not manage to get the same satisfaction than with 15.01, but 16.01 has made my faith to come back, this morning I spent maybe too much time with Euro Blue, mostly, and it was really inspiring, really touch sensitive, it destroys any plugin I own (and are a few).

I can highly recommend the York Audio Bogner Cab, sounds absolut amazing!
I don’t know how close the Ecstacy 3534 is to the amp that Cliff modeled, but the gain on the red channel of my 3534 is crazy. At anything above 9 o’clock it’s already super saturated and compressed. It’s great for singing, sustained leads, but that’s about it.Yeah, the Euro Blue and Euro Blue Modern models really shines in the 16.01 update
But, I’m struggling with the The Euro Red Modern. Since 16.00, I find it’s lacking punch and clarity (even with depth set to the “tight” position). The gain has also increased. With the bright switch in the “B2” position, anything over 2 on the gain knob is just insane…
I've never been a recto guy, like ever. But a few days ago, on FW 16.0, I made a Recto 1 Orange preset that I really was having fun with. Went back to it a couple times, still fun. To be clear though, I'm not a metal or djen't guy, and not usually super high gain either.
Upgraded to 16.01, without doing any resets etc, and either my taste has gone back to its normal recto-averse state, or the new firmware does something I don't care for in this context.
Do I understand correctly that 16.01 replaces all existing settings for Power Tube Grid Bias and Negative Feedback with the new default values? That's what the OP in this thread appears to say.
If so, does that mean that to peek at how I had those set in this preset, I need to roll back to 16.0, and reload it from my backup?
If I do that, write down those settings, reload 16.01, and re-enter the values I wrote down, will these same numbers have the same effect as they did in 16.0? I know other things may have changed about the modeling, I'm just talking about reverting those two parameters to their 16.0 state.
EDIT: Reading back through this thread, it looks like @AtomicBlaze suggests exactly this for Power Tube Grid Bias, but recording those values before upgrading. Since I already upgraded, my steps would then be correct, yes?

You mean that lovely Danish opera house that you have there in SydneyLOVE the new reverb and delay EQ options. Having an adjustable Q for the delay high/low filters is icing on the cake, especially with the Axe-Edit update.

Shot this yesterday with the beeta, few little bits and pieces some may find useful
Maybe. See @AtomicBlaze's and my posts not far above.Are these updates sonically far off far 16? Just started tracking a project with 16 and wondering if I should hold off on this version or if it won't make a huge difference.
