Awesome. Amazing Customer Focus. Hoping it addressed the CS Input Boost switch (FC) not resetting on program preset changes.,,,,

FYI....I had to reset FC-6 to factory default layout and settings via the III ‘s front panel as the application of this beta seemingly douched all the existing settings, maybe just an anomaly for me and easily corrected , but thought y'all should know...but otherwise sounds bitchen so far..

BTW, I can believe this went two pages deep in a matter of minutes... There were a lot of people watching it!

Thank you for all the innovation and updates! I know Axe Edit still needs to be updated to be fully compatible with this release. However, I am wondering if using Axe Edit with this release can cause any harm or unwanted results? In other words, can I still use Axe Edit for the functions that are still applicable with this release or should I just keep Axe Edit closed until the updated version is released (after the firmware is out of beta)? I've always wondered this and finally decided to ask.

Legend!
it's usually a new parameter added that just doesn't appear in Edit because it hasn't been added yet.
it's "safe" to use for things that existed before, but always perform the Settings > Refresh after new FW.

I haven't tried the Herbie (3) in a long time, but was it always so dark an amp? Using EMG 81/85 pickup guitar and I really need to crank the treble and/or presence to open it up. Is that all just to do with my pickups? Not that I'm complaining, mind, as it sounds great when I do play with those controls. The rest of the controls seem to behave quite differently to other amps as well. Cool stuff.

I Just installed version 5 beta #3 and went through my presets. They sound kind of lifeless and tinny, in a brittle way, compared to version 5 beta #2. So I A/B'd version 5 beta #2 with version 5 beta #3. There's something lacking in the fullness, tone quality and feel in beta 3. So I'm assuming some drastic EQing is needed.
It may be my ears, so I'm going to walk away for an hour or so and come back, as we had a long rehearsal this afternoon.
But even my band mates remarked about how killer and full my guitar sounded at rehearsal when I was on beta 2.
