Download the firmware update zip from the forum. You'll see a couple .syx files, one for firmware one for dynacabs. Just use fractal bot to load the dynacabs file.
I also have a non turbo FM3. Can you give a brief explanation of what the Torpedo does and how it fits in with the FM3? Does it replace the CAB block? Also, for my tube amp, what does it do that the amp and speakers don't do? Thanks and sorry for a dumb question. I am on the Torpedo site but still a bit confused as to what it is and what it does.
That occurs when additional cabs are added to the distribution, and the firmware knows, either by looking at an internal Dyna-Cab version number or by checking/counting bytes or some other internal check.
Thanks -- I fixed the issue by doing an emergency uninstall. That put the device back to FW 1.00. I then dragged and dropped the FW 9.00 into Fractal Bot and loaded that. Then I had to drag in Dyna-Cab version 7.00 because FW 9.00 won't without Dyna cabs. After I had older Dyna-Cabs loaded in, I was able to load the Dyna-Cabs 9.00.
For.the time being my patches sound as before and that's OK for me, I don't like to tweak too much with the deeper parameters nowadays. In the days of the Ultra it was necessary to get correct clean sounds but since FW7 of axe fx II somehow I didn't need to anymore. The advantage is that after Amp resets you have less work, usually.
FM3 Non-Turbo, no change in CPU usage...
This is not the Torpedo CAB thread, though in my case with the old Torpedo CAB it just provides cab, mic(s), room/reverb, generic tube power amp sims, EQ and static IR loader, so yes, in my case it replaces the cab and reverb blocks plus an EQ block, which creates the CPU savings there by extending my old non-turbo FM3 a lot as I use one kitchen sink preset for the whole show (for pristine delay tails and cross-fades, long before gapless was added etc).
Yes, and that can perhaps be taken advantage of to essentially trick the system. When it doesn't pass the logic check, then the DCs aren't loaded and therefore you get the shorter boot time.
That's CAB, EQ, and Reverb Blocks in my case, which on average saves around 20% CPU with reverb in eco mode.
Looks like our friend either deleted his account or it was deleted for him?
The insult-slinging felt very troll-ish to me. It was certainly nice of you to try to help, but he wasn't looking for solutions and hopefully sold his unit (if he ever really owned one).
Well that was a real pain in the ass. I hope there isn't another firmware update for a good long while. Actually it was worth it. I play through headphones and my presets sound more "open" if that makes sense.
That's to be expected. The dialog is to encourage the user to have all the current factory-based Dyna-Cabs installed to ensure full functionality of the Cab block and the modeler. If they're not available the modeler won't really care as the Factory legacy cabs are still installed and available to the Cab block. If the Cab block isn't used inside the preset then there's even less concern that they're not installed.
Update: no perceived CPU change from previous beta. I was playing around with the looper and saved it in the preset, thus the extra couple %. ID10T error. Every amp I use sounds more realistic. I’m really enjoying this update!
The cab block in doesn't work at all under fw9.0, even in standard IR mode when the dyna-cabs are not installed, as my earlier posts made sure to mention so nobody gets surprised!
