A color sound overdrive would be pretty nice to see included
i made a video showing the Tone page of all 264 current Amp types. there is no audio. each Type is shown for 2 seconds.
i could make a recording where i adjust only the original controls, and another where i adjust something not on the original amp. i'm pretty sure no one would be able to tell. "authenticity" doesn't even happen between the copies of the same physical amp. *shrug*It’s going to be more authentic for people that need to create authentic tones and fans of the real amp equivalents
The key word is SHOULD. Just as an example I normally dial in some mids to most amps including ones that do not have a mid control. How many times has it been posted here that guitar is a mid range instrument & you need mids to cut in a mix. This will make dialing that in much more cumbersome & time consuming.
Not true.The entire amp block is inauthentic

Not true.
The non-original settings are basically like amp mods. And you can make them without tools or a soldering iron.
The whole point of how Fractal models amps is about authenticity.
The controls are not "restricted", they are just moved to a different page.
Also, Cliff already posted that he's going to make it a global option.

can there be 'zero quantity' on the diodes? that way you can get only op-amp distortion? It just sounds like crappy hard clipping, but it's my favorite of favorite type of drive sound.
Added them to the wiki list.
Also, they already have been listed in this thread.
3.02
Tone page of Amp block now displays controls consistent with model. The full complement of tone and gain controls is available under the Advanced tab. Note: this change necessitates that the Bass, Mid and Treble controls are reset when changing the amp type. On some models extra controls (i.e. Bright, Depth) are included as common modifications include altering these values.

So I was listening to Josh Scott of JHS Pedals, and then saw your posted video, and then got a little confused. Andy from Pro Guitar Shop says (@3:49) he is using the OP Amp with no diodes for "raw distortion". Josh says (@46:10) the OP Amp is "super clean", and the diodes clamping the super clean OP Amp creates drive and distortion. The whole video was a nice introduction of the changing technologies to help me start to understand why I would choose to use Germanium, Silicon, etc. I know... just use your ears.
It seems like they can't both be right. Am I missing something?
@FractalAudio just uploaded and ran into a bug - turning the drive to 10 on the Tone of Kings model results in a loud pop followed by no sound and all the output LED's lighting up. Otherwise new drives sound fantastic.
Yeah. Cliff said he has already fixed it. Don't turn it up to 10 for now.
