Axe-Master
All joking aside...
I've been putting Firmware 11 through it's paces, and I'm pretty impressed. From the release notes, I see that it implements some of the 'new stuff' that went into the Axe II.
Don't know if it's just the furor over the new rollout, but Cliff has not gone out with a whimper on this. Just saying.
I'll do a full review here soon, but my first impressions are that the power amp sims are significantly more responsive. This can be both good and bad, as I feel like I have more control over how much 'squish' is there without adding undue distortion, but also that it's much more 'present' in your playing. Thus, the lesson is: 'Get it right, guitar player, 'cause everyone's gonna hear it good OR bad'.
