FM3 Firmware Version 6.01 beta 1

Hi @rglr,
I seem to have the same problem with the compressor attack and release time when scrolling through the different compressions as discussed. Ratio seem ok now. E.g. if you reset the block scroll through from Analog down and select each until studio ff comp 1 the time I get is 0.360ms/140ms but when I reset the block it's 2ms/100ms. So same as before for me.

(I also have the same problem as discussed with the slow UI when having more than three controllers)

Except for that all seem to work fine.

Best,
Joakim

I think there is a minor bug in fw6.0 that maybe you could fix in fw6.01: the footswitches are flashing in a bank with an active preset (if you go bank forward and backward).

Example::
  1. I go to bank 1 (lights are flashing)
  2. I select the 1st preset of the bank 1 (lights stop flashing)
  3. I go to bank 2 and return to bank 1, after one tap and one hold on a footswitch with this configuration:Captura de pantalla 2022-12-20 a les 7.00.40.png
  4. -The bank 1 is shown in my FC12, with the preset active, but all the lights are flashing

Any chance to please help in getting the JP2C Model more accurate or close to the real amp especially in the Mark 5 band EQ section!
The model in the Unit is having way more gain than the real amp believe it or not, also although Cliff mentioned that JP him self approved the model himself but i think with the updates, firmwares & the new improvements been happening lately, something has changed & its not accurate or close to as it was before! Well, the EQ section never was actually, hope you guys can really help getting this àmp to where and how it should be!

The Mark EQ type in the Amp block is intentionally not "authentic". I don't think that's going to change:

The short version @Drago01121 is that you shouldn't need to move the 5-band sliders as far to get the sounds you're used to.

No, I agree with you. There is a noticeable gap between hitting heeldown and bypassing the wah.

Devin Townsend's gift of Tone preset also has a crossfading wah instead of an auto-engaging wah, maybe thiat will work better for you? https://www.fractalaudio.com/gift-o...169330539&mc_cid=210d810ba1&mc_eid=216642fd2d

Upon further investigation it seems that the Frequency Minimum on the Paragon is much lower than (for example) the Clyde. Clyde = 450 Hz, Paragon is 100 Hz. So as you get closer you get to heeldown, the audio seems to fade away because of lack of any signal down around 100 Hz. I changed Frequency Minimum to 450 Hz and now all is good. 👍

I personally don't think this is a bug.

You've performed a bank change and haven't selected a preset. Regardless that you've changed back to your already "active" bank.

If it's wrong then Cliff fat fingered the settings on the Axe Fx III and then it migrated down to FM9 and FM3.

Or else his physical pedal may be different...

In any case, I agree that video doesn't seem to have the same response on the low end.

Dunno. I think of the flashing presets as a visual indication that you've migrated off of the current bank. When you get back to the current bank, I'd expect that flashing to stop. If not a bug, maybe an oversight?

First I never played a Tycobrahe Parapedal in real life, but that doesn’t seem to have the physical distance sweep of let’s say an EV-1. I agree that the heel down is either higher than 100 hz or if it is, it’s much more audible down in that range. Second, were all these pedals consistent throughout their mfg lifespan? Finally, we are converting CC MIDI data into a simulation so there’s bound to be some issues with a pedal whose distinction what it’s much lower point of sweep. The Wah block has enough parameter settings to tweak it to whatever is sufficient for everyone.

Maybe FAS and Cliff can visit the model and make some changes. The video I posted of Leon Todd was getting some very cool Wah effects that are in no way like the typical Clyde or Cry Baby. I personally like the way it is on the Paragon.

Agree. This is the key point. If you are in the bank of the active preset, it has no sense that lights are flashing.
