Odd behavior

[Dickie Fredericks]

First time for everything I guess.
Yesterday I was recording bass gtr tracks. Using the Cali 400 (awesome) when suddenly the Axe3 locked up and had a high pitched ringing type noise. I closed Studio One. I shut down the RME.
Axe 3 still showing signal/noise on both input and output. 24.03 installed.

Checked everything and definitely the Axe 3.

Restart and carried on. Didn't happen the rest of the day.

Attach the preset if possible.

In my experience, this type of issue seems to happen when there's a bug in the Amp block.

You might want to mention this is the 24.03 thread...

I don't think I did much to alter it.

There was an unusually high number of M and X solar flares yesterday. Your unit probably got hit by a cosmic ray which flipped a bit.

Hahaha That's what I thought but didn't want to appear crazy. Thanks for confirming.

This used to be a common answer in IT circles when there was unexpected behavior

Confirmed Axe Fx III is not impervious to cosmic rays
