Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 9.00 Public Beta

[FractalAudio]

Anything in there for those who don’t play metal

Obviously not. Even though every amp affected is not a metal amp this firmware is obviously intended for the metal crowd.

Every amp is a metal amp if you slap a M-Zone drive in front if it

What’s an M-Zone?

Thought so...
Love the swap scene function to Layout in 8 though.

Should I counter with wish this update was for metal amps?!?!

Wow... I picked the wrong time to go on a 7-day cruise to Mexico.

I'll have a whole week to relax and think about not playing my Axe Fx with this new FW....

What is the Better Variation?
If I roll it up - 2-3 4?
Or down? 0.8 -0.5 0.3 ??
I'm trying! - but I can't decide.
My ears are not good!

I installed 9.00 beta and tried my favorite 10 Marshall type amps and they all sounded good. I reset each amp then re-dialed in the same settings. They were all a bit lower in volume than before. I had to increase the volume on each amp. It sounds good. I will check out all my favorite Fender and Vox presets tonight.

You don't need to change it. It's just an option. If you can't hear it, you don't need it. It's there solve issues, not to create them.

I'm not sure if you understood he was being sarcastic ...

the second least desirable distortion pedal in the entire world...

I too would like to see more updates for those of us who play wood

Rolling up is always a preference!

I'm not sure I'd pay to watch you play wood.

Sweet, the tone sounds like it gets a bit smoother with the spkr match setting set to higher values.

Funny how so many people think that the Axe is mainly used by and designed for Metal players when the responses to such queries are overwhelmingly from guys who don't play Metal.

You'd think it would sink in by now - The Axe Fx III is the top of the line amp modeler, meaning that any given amp is going to sound and respond like the actual amp.

Is it just me or is there a dramatic reduction in CPU usage? My template that hovered around 82-83% is now sitting at around 68%.

 

[APOGEE123]

Sounds great definitely can feel it...love the updates
