Analog only for 4 cable. It's also mono only if that matters

I got the vp4 to assist my fm9 and am4 and currently use it at the end.
I wish the spdif could be used as part of the loop pre and post am4 in the digital domain in stereo. Big wish.
I also wish these devices had multiple spdif ins and outs so it I could do dry/DI, different insert points and whatever else.. I don't favor usb as I have a thousand connections already. (Probably more like 15)

SPDIF 4 CM is a current feature request. It's not available now.

I have the VP4 and the AM4 will get real tempting if that gets implemented.

But in addition it'd need it to work when input is USB. I just asked and currently not possible what I want, unless I re-amp in 2 passes

Ah, I read right past that detail for some reason.

[FIXED]
Is this a known bug?

1. Power on the AM4
2. Enter Preset Mode with the Select knob or by pressing simultaneously the Home + Save buttons and then 1
3. When in Preset Mode, press Enter to display the list of all presets

The following image is displayed and the unit freezes, every single time:

The audio still passes through and is processed but the unit is frozen in that state. It started doing so a few days ago, and a reboot was sufficient to fix the issue. It is now consistently happening, making switching presets impossible.

After a boot, I can browse through the models just fine (pedals, amps, etc.) and can change scenes as well in the "start-up" preset. It is browsing through presets that systematically crashed the unit.

[EDIT]: Firmware 1.01

[EDIT 2]: Doing a full reset fixed this issue (SETUP > Reset > Reset System Parameters + Clear all Presets + Clear all User Cabs). I took the opportunity to update to firmware 1.02 public beta 4. Everything seems to be working fine again. Fingers crossed !

Thanks for any help or feedback.
