FW7.02 Global Blocks not updating new parameters

[DavezHear]

AFXII Mark 2 - Noted global blocks were not updating the added motor drive parameters in the amp block, cabinet block is OK and updated fine. Also the compressor block is not updating completely, did not try the new diffusion parameters. I was able to get the global blocks working again by performing a "save and link" on a newly changed block, then saved that preset. Then go to each preset using that global block and perform a "load and link" for that block and save the preset. Basically re-linking the global blocks as needed.

The preset file format evolves with firmware updates. This happens under the hood. These are referred to as 'preset revisions'. When the preset is stored, it's updated to the latest revision.

Sometimes an old preset with Global Blocks, based on an old revision, does not play along nicely with a firmware update. This can cause the issue described above. Such a preset needs to be stored again first, followed by relinking the block.
