Awesome, thanks!

I’m aware. Was the bug fixed?

Ok, well you referred to it as a beta in your post. I haven't ever seen anything mentioned about the situation you mentioned though.

Hi FAS !

Just wondering, given the closeness of the releases, does FM3 5.03 Final -already- contain the Axe 3 FW 20.00 Beta 4 " ... New Speaker Drive algorithm in Amp block ... " (?)

No biggie either way, just curious

Thanks,
Ben

No, not yet. It is in the work queue.

I’m most excited for View attachment 102440

But I’m also realistic and patient

Thank you FAS!!! Will install after work.

The rate of these updates is really amazing. Already working on the new Axe III updates that sound like major improvements and upgrades on their beta thread. Just fantastic. Thank you so much for all your efforts and hard work!

Many thanks rglr

I know I'm pushing my luck here .... .... but .... is the new "Block Mixer” algorithm resulting in faster/quieter scene and channel changes also in the FM3 work queue ?

Thanks,
Ben

Thank you. Going to update my brand new FM3 asap.

Thank you. Good update. Most of the problems that were observed in 5.02 were fixed. Scenes now switch quickly, everything is stable, without complaints. Although I noticed that some presets went into the CPU limit, I have to set it up again.

There's a speaker drive parameter already in the speaker section of the amp block... is another parameter forthcoming?

Don't expect factory presets from previous FW to be 100% compatible with later FW.

Further, all presets, including factory, are easily adjusted by the user, and fully customizable.

Also... maybe just my opinion, but I think you don't even need to update FW beyond the one that factory presets were last updated, if all you do is use factory presets in their defaults.

Thanks! Working great so far.

My ears ain’t so great these days, but I swear this firmware sounds better.

I agree…..sounds freaking awesome!

Little less presence maybe?

Yep, that one is bad. I'd had already reworked a bunch to get 5.02 to stay below the limit. This round, I'd run out of reverb settings to further downgrade and had to delete blocks to get under the limits. I hate the thought of NOT staying with the latest release though, so it is what it is.

All of my Austin Buddy presets are solid and sound great. My gigging presets sound better than ever.

As with any feature or improvement, CPU increases need to be evaluated before deciding to implement on the FM3. So, yes it is in the queue, but it is not guaranteed to be implemented.

There are a few tweaks to the Amp block, so it may be more than just your ears.
