Started the process a little while ago, let me know if I'm missing anything

Fractal bot: update fm3 and update dyna cabs

Fm3 Edit software: update to new version

Fm3: update all presets

FM3 Edit: reset all amp blocks.

Enable Gapless:
  • Setup > Global Settings > Config > Spillover must be set to “ALL”
 
If you update all presets the required amp block parameters are updated before the presets are saved.

Watched it when I was doing the update, didn't see gapless included in the vid unless I missed it?

indeed i forgot to mention that , added as a pinned comment

the update/upgrade all presets in my case set the gapless function to all, i only stick to one kitchen sink preset for the whole set at the moment, so i haven't set gapless preset changes in my use case

with regards to the amp reset, i'll be honest it's not super clear, in the case of say a preset with a d60 amp (which is my main preset) i had to reset the amp block as the amp model was changed/replaced from the old one, but it seems that it's not required/needed for others, or maybe i'm missing something, other users have been somewhat confused on this as well

No. There's no reason to reset.

Here is what I have experienced...
  • Updated FM3 Edit to 1.06.09
  • Upgraded from FW 7 to FW 8
  • FM3 Setup Menu
    • Global Settings
      • Gapless Changes set to “ALL”
      • Spillover set to “ALL”
    • Utilities
      • Preset Tab > Upgrade All Presets
Subsequently copied my custom presets, and reset the amp block in the copied version only via Presets > Manage Presets > Select preset(s) > Right click > Reset Amp Blocks.

What I have observed (across several presets with different amp models) is the Speaker Drive and Speaker Thump settings in the Speaker tab changed after resetting the amp blocks.
