Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 10.02

[2112]

Just in time for another rehearsal today, switching is great and the tones are just insane on guitar and bass.

 

[Henry]

Rehearsal last night, sounded glorious even through a cheap Seismic PA monitor from the band practice room!

I’ve been hoping this word I think I coined would catch on!

When writing it I wasn't sure if I made the word it up or if I'd seen it or something very similar somewhere
It's absolutely and entirely possible that I nicked the word from you !?

 

[Rocket Brother]

a new ecliffany and subsequent FW update.

I want a Fractal T-shirt with this word on it.

Me too

 

[USMC_Trev]

It goes to ELEVEN!

Let’s not get ahead of when we actually do hit 11

Yup, this is one of the Commandments of Fractal...spend as much as you can on monitors....the FAS guys know this, and when I got to play and hear the FM3 and AxeFX III thru a pair of 4000$(EACH) Meyer wedges at AxeFest last month, I had an ECliffany™ similar to yours...and I have big monitors (CLR and XItone)...everything’s relative.....

Question: Is an amp reset suggested with these last 3 updates?

 

[Bruce Sokolovic]

There is definitely something different in a good way in this update.

I'm only at 14.. More than I need, less than I want.

I feel for William though, he's had one on order for 18 months now.
There's no way I could wait that long and not tell the dealer to stick it.

Appreciate the comment, but can't really blame the vendor on a pre-order. LoL!

I have 20+ guitars, Axe FX III, Helix, Kemper Stage, and a couple of custom built tube amps to ease the pain. Hehehe!

There should be one where the bot is laying back, smoking a cig, with an exhausted, yet fulfilled expression.....

 

[Randalljax]

Once again amazing!

Wonder how long will take to FW11 hahahha

He probably already has ideas

I'd guess before Halloween.

I took a couple months off playing guitar so I missed the last few updates. With fresh ears this firmware makes me very happy!! I think there has been pretty significant improvements since the last firmware I tried. Great work Fractal!

It is not indicated at the Release Notes, so we have to assume that it is not necessary.

Adjustemnts to verify specific advanced parameters are already noted at the RN

The improvement is still audible even if you haven't skipped anything! I think I've religiously and incrementally installed every single firmware since the AFX Ultra was at firmware v5. Barring the jumps between hardware models - the updates to 10.0/10.01 were the most audible to me, in terms of just turning on and playing my existing patches as-is, with no new tweaking. The crunch and string separation on double stops or open A chords are just awesome now.

I seriously wonder if Mayers comments set off a lightbulb
John said there were 3 things he thought were not quite there
And i kind of feel like all 3 of those got addressed

this FW is a 10 out of 10!

I brought up the question because all my presets are brighter with lots of treble.

I brought up the question because all my presets are brighter with lots of treble.

It's not needed to bring in the new default settings but I have found it helpful on a number of presets to just start over on the amp block.

I had an ElevenRack - Let's skip right to 12.
Thanks
