NEW IN THIS VERSION
* Support for firmware 5.0 public beta
o Updated Compressor
o Updated MultiTap Delay
o Updated Plex Delay
o Updated Looper
* Corrected an issue in the Leveling Panel in which the Modifier state of the Out 1 and 2 levels were not being displayed.
* Modified the conversion of the DELAY block's TIME parameter to/from the Axe-Fx III / FM3.
* Added a context menu below the Save button for quick access to "Save to New Preset Number" and "Save All Blocks to Library".
* Added "Reset Current Channel" to the Channel dropdown menu.
* Added missing "Look-Ahead" controls to the JFET and Compander Compressor types.
* Added a "Sort A-Z" button to the Preset Picker. The sort preference is written to the settings file to preserve the selection.
* Added a "IR Output" setting to the Preferences : Cabinet Import category. This setting determines the format of the resulting Cab IR when importing .ir or .wav files.
* Added a "WAV Import" setting to the Preferences : Cabinet Import category. This setting determines which channel or channels are read from stereo .wav files when the .wav files are added to the Manage Browser pane. When in Manage Cabs, the "Wav Import" setting can be changed from the Browser menu by selecting the "WAV Import Format" submenu.
* The Cab Picker now displays an icon that reveals the format of each IR. (S) for standard resolution, (U) for UltraRes(tm), and (F) for FullRes(tm).
* The Manage Presets and Manage Cabs dialogs have been combined into one tabbed dialog. The existing shortcuts and top-level Tools menu items will launch the Manage dialog with the respective tab selected.
* Reordered the items in the TOOLS menu.
* Updated the internal Fractal-Bot to version 3.0.12.
* Corrected a bug in the picker window which prevented an item highlight by the JUMP buttons from being selected.
* Modified the Picker window's keyboard navigation to allow the RETURN/ENTER key to select an item.
* Modified the Picker window's keyboard navigation to select an item when the thumbtack is down (thumbtack is found in the upper-right of the dialog).
* Corrected a communication slowdown that was introduced in version 1.05.02.
* Corrected a bug in Manage Cabs Browser in which only the right-side of stereo .wav files would be read from the file.
* Corrected a bug in the Cab block where switching between the Align page and any other page extremely quickly would cause all the graphs to show regardless of the Mute selection.
* Corrected an issue in the Library "Save" command for single-channel Library entries: when saving a modified single-channel Library entry the active channel is now set to the currently selected channel.
* Added the ability for FM3-Edit to determine if the selected device is currently connected to another Fractal Audio application. Requires the minimum version of Fractal-Bot 3.00.12.
* Added Preset+Cab Bundle. A Preset+Cab Bundle contains one preset plus any User Cab Impulse Responses (IRs) used by that preset. Bundles make it easier to share sounds and are easy to export and import.
To export a Bundle, use the Preset / "Export Preset-Cab Bundle" menu. This will display the "Export Preset+Cab Bundle" dialog. IRs that this preset refers to but does not use are excluded but can be included manually by checking them. Examples include cabs that are muted or channels that are not referred to by any scene. Factory cabs cannot be exported/checked."
To import a bundle, use the Presets / "Import Preset" menu or drag-and-drop a bundle file onto the editor's main Preset display. This will display the "Import Preset+Cab Bunlde" dialog. This dialog unpacks a Preset-Cab Bundle and saves it ready-for-use to your Axe-Fx III. A Preset+Cab Bundle contains one preset plus all of the User Cab impulse Response (IRs) it requires. To proceed, you must select a location to save each of the items listed below. The preset will be updated automatically to refer to the location(s) you selected for the Cab(s).
PLEASE NOTE:
Starting with firmware 2.00, FM3-Edit 1.02.00 (or greater) is required to communicate with the FM3.
Previous versions of FM3-Edit (versions 1.01.10 or less) will not work with firmware 2.00 or greater.
FM3-Edit 1.02.00 (or greater) will continue to work with all previous firmware versions.
