Axefx3: cygnus x 3 (fw25.0) beta

[rokket2005]

I loaded 26.01 right when it came out, but I don't use the rat that often and didn't notice a difference in other drive models. Jamming on 26.02 for a few minutes and it sounds great, but I haven't played in a few days so might be placebo. Feels a little more defined in the 1-3k range.

jeez, I flashed 26.01 the other day but I haven't even had a chance to try the drive pedal changes.

I installed the current beta on the FM3, and the Metal zone pedal is messed up. Sounds like it is clipping and just jacked. Any of you guys on the Axe 3 having this problem?

Fractal Audio is posting on TeeGeePee now? I thought he was perma-banned?

Seems Cygnus X-3 might come to FM3 in beta this week.

Original axe-FX came out close enough to 15 years ago, this is vintage territory now.

I’ve always like fractal, but haven’t touched it since I bought the Red 7 reactive load box. Not trying to start a real amp vs modeler debate because I think both options have their place…. I was always kind of annoyed when Fractal came out with new firmware because it took me hours to load it and redial my presets and I got no real playing or recording done. Real amp into a good load box always feels a bit superior to me, you get that squishy compression feel during palm mutes and Fractal felt stiffer, even though fractal does sound great.

I find updates dont usually require me to change much in my presets. I also dont use very many. Not sure if Im in the minority there..

Excited to try it when I get home, though maybe I'll wait for the full release, I barely have checked out the last couple updates other than to apply them
