Fractal Talk

[DLC86]

I took a brief look at the thread, got thoroughly confused about how one should update the device, and backed out of the thread slowly. I’ll wait until I forget what I read there, then go read the wiki and see if I can figure out what to do. Surely it can’t be that hard really….

I do have some presets I’m concerned about preserving, but it’s mainly the effects stuff I care about. The amp sounds I have are the ones I quickly dialed up upon getting the unit, nothing I couldn’t recreate relatively quickly. And I really want to re-do those anyway.

It's very simple really, the update contains:
1. new algorithm - nothing you can/need to do about it, once you update it (slightly) changes the sound
2. new default values for some parameters - you can choose to update those by resetting the amp (in all the different ways) or even by copying them by hand from another channel/block/preset, or if you don't give a f*** about those, keep your presets as they are.

There you have it......just like it says in the release notes.

That’s easy and straightforward. Then I don’t understand what the hell is happening in that other thread. I’ll just stay out and avoid the chaos…

Holy sweet BeJebus !

I just wasted a good chunk of time scrolling quickly though the 57 [so far] pages on the Fractal Forum for the Axe 3 FW 25 Beta - along with the accompanying very clear and concise release notes.

I can only conclude that there truly is no hope for the human species.

If I were Cliff .... that thread would be enough to make me seriously consider shutting down and liquidating the company !

Un-be-f%cking-lievable !

I used the handy “ignore thread” feature so that I don’t even have to think about that thread any more. A new thread will be posted when there is another beta or a release version.

He is probably working on the auto parameter update beta 2 right now so he does not ever have to read that again.

Now it will auto update , you like the sound great , if you don’t try tweaking and turning some knobs , if that still isn’t working
Roll back firmware

No doubt… How is this beta release any different than the last 100? I’m starting to loathe that forum as much as The Other Place. Too many gatekeepers, RTFM-Nazis, and people that really need to get a fucking life.

I've never skipped through as many posts in a thread as I have there. Seems like page 15 or so my eyes rolled and I started just skipping past anything that had to do with "reset the amp block", except to make some jokes here and there ;~)) I hope Cliff can ignore the noise and carry on with his genius!

Ye olde dynamics and touch response is awesome.

That's the primary reason why I Fractal'ed.

Gordy Lordy ...... I hope for his own, and his staff's mental well being, that he does implement a full-system-wide-all-parameter-auto-update for when the new FW comes out for the FM3 and FM9 and the next Axe 3 beta [or final].

Oh good now it looks like we are discussing input trim

RIP to any non fractal user that was thinking about dipping their toes into the FAS world dismissing the "it's too complicated" trope

I feel like the intent of this thread has really drifted off course of the OP:

Let's have a proper "all things Fractal" thread! Tips, tricks, discussions, musings on the current and future.

Want to rant? Thread for that this way: https://thegearforum.com/threads/fractal-users.319/

You guys are now swirling here about the swirling on the Fractal Forums...

Sure thing, boss...

Thanks! You guys already try and regulate what is posted over on the FAS forum so I appreciate you letting us chat more freely over here. I'd hate to ask how people are liking the beta on a beta thread. I was told that wasn't allowed.

If you can't see how wild that firmware thread is compared to previous ones, not sure what to say
