Aligning the first big peak is the normal thing to do... But if you get good results otherwise, why not ? please your ears firstOk, so my computer is finally up and running and I got 2.05 loaded.
Had a little time to play around a bit with the Cab block Align page.
Of course, all the IRs I've played with are MPT but they fairly well in alignment.
But I haven't really heard anyone talk about how you align them.
I tried aligning the biggest peak at the beginning of the wave, but sometimes felt like the low end developed an odd, "wooly" resonant character.
I tried aligning various other "common" peaks, too.
I also played a bit with intentionally misaligning the IRs, which produced some pleasing results.
So... I know it's all about ears, but are there some recommended strategies for aligning them for best results?
Thanks...Aligning the first big peak is the normal thing to do... But if you get good results otherwise, why not ? please your ears first
https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/midi-2-0.146548/unreadJust a question, so not specifically related to 2.05 release, bit I did not know where else to put it.
Question: I just read that the Midi 2.0 spec has been agreed upon and now various suppliers will start testing. I wonder, what are the plans for the Axe FX-3? Would it be possible at all to upgrade to Midi 2.0 and if so, is Fractal Audio planning to do that sometime in the future? Current spec is from the eighties and rather limited. It would be great to get an upgrade here.
Thx.
LOL. Added to my 'list of things to try'. I have this list that is like 50 or so things I've read here where I think "I gotta try that" and then when I fire up the AxeFx I end up playing for hours and using up all my preset experimentation time on just surfing all the tones I already have at my finger tips.The analog compressor is fantastic. With lower ratio settings (1.5) you get that compressor-is-enabled feeling but still it sounds alive and open and in-your-face. So easy to find the right balance. Thank you!

Just wanted to give this FW an appreciation post. The improvements in the Cab Block are fantastic! I really dig the floor reflections and how tweakable the “room” is. I used to spend a ton of time joyfully tweaking, but now it’s absurdly easy to dial in a great tone and just play. To the entire Fractal crew, thank you for your hard work and dedication.
There's a bug that affects non-UltraRes IRs from being displayed properly. It has already been fixed for the next release.
Thanks, can someone else confirm ?-40db I believe
Try import them with auto-trim processingRegarding the new Align feature, I have an OwnHammer IR and a Celestion IR that I can't align, would it be possible in a later firmware release to increase distance (delay)View attachment 52027
