Morbid curiosity.... can someone give me an example of an amp sim that you use the 'previous' switch on? And maybe what you feel is the benefit of the earlier modelling on that amp?
I'm in front of my Axe and been putzing with the switch... in every case I feel that the dimension and 3d is superior on LATEST. Help me understand.
It allows me to be an early adopter.
I want to be locked into my presets way ahead of a run of shows.
That's bizarre confidence to have. A firmware update can change more than just the modeling algorithm. What if a drive block algorithm changed in some substantial way? Which, literally, just happened with the latest public beta.I want to be locked into my presets way ahead of a run of shows. So I can download new firmware with the confidence that I will have zero work to do.
Sorry about that then, my mistake. I still do not consider it a higher end unit. When the XL came out, we were told yes there was more space, but for presets and cabs, not for Firmware. If it was told when the Xl came out, which is a while, then we would've known that down the line, we would be in this situation. What's happening is sudden.

Also, you're not early adopting anything if you install something only to tell it to use the version previous.
The feature was provided so some people could take advantage of new features outside of the modeling algorithm without having their core AMP sounds change. It doesn't provide any comprehensive tone protection if you use blocks other than the AMP block in your signal chain.

Great. Enjoy the feature that you will never use.When I was considering which one to get, I chose XL+ because it had more memory. And not because I need hundreds of presets. I just thought it would be more futureproof.
Same devices or not, one of the two has reached its limit. I don't see that holding the other one back is fair to those who went for a more expensive option.

Was going to raise this point, too; and then there's the whole bugs thing. It makes zero sense to load a new firmware especially with no real intent of using it (i.e. keeping everything one step back) at a high risk point in time. Even FAS produces a few bugs here and there.That's bizarre confidence to have. A firmware update can change more than just the modeling algorithm.

That isn't what he said he was doing, now is it?How are you not an early adopter if you only use older firmware for older presets and the latest firmware for current presets and to dabble?

I don't even own a Mark I or Mark 2. But I do own an AX8 and I suspect that this same scenario will occur with us because of the same hardware limitations. Even thought this is newer hardware that the XL. I kind of suspect that is why it takes so long to port the firmware.
