Improved tube modeling. New algorithms uses more accurate plate current formulas based on actual measurements rather than theoretical values. This results in smoother, thicker distortion and better dynamic response.
Isn't it 156% tubier and realer now? 
Good for them.
No need to bash.

Happy that Kemper pushes competitors to improve their products. Competition is always a good thing for customers

Not bashing here, just had a little fun of a name Deux 
Tried to find any corresponding word creation in this camp, but couldn't.
Cliff is worried lol

Maybe it's planned a release of a third beta version
HAHA! this is entertaining , no bashing but a little point and laugh
First it was Quantum TM ... to make ppl feel smart... A buzzword in physics that actually came about because the physicists involved in it's creation didn't know what to
call it so they used quantum, meanig amount, think quantity, v.s quality. That alone was funny, but go to fas fron page , and that alien brandishing tha axe unit really does make it look like he is gonna get the probe... guitarist says no way that probe is gonna fit in my anus, alien says "yes it will. now bend over and show me your shi**er".
Was wondering why they were quiet during Namm.. Either having probs or working on something really good, and honestly I hoped it was something good.
As for Deux, it can have several meanings here, also ridiculous...
1 The most obvious: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deus_ex_machina or "God from the machine" This is too easy to make fun of, almost no sport. Bt it does show some sort of god
complex or cult, and that board has a vibe where sycophants think the sun shines out of C C's a$$hole.
2 Harry's idea, part 2. Seems pretentious to mix French in like that. Also ridiculous. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=part+deux a more modern meaning were a sequel is really bad. Kinda implies dookie.
I think Harry has the most likely idea, a planed release of a third version --the master beta
lol sorry could not resist...
all in good fun tho, just sayin'
i ain't bashin', was just bashin'
OMG another 120% realzer! 
The djentlemans must be really excited over there. After a few more game changer updates, the Axe might finally sound like a tube amp.
Deux it's two in french (hence the 2.00).
Im sure it sounds great, but...how many times have they said the emulation sounded 100% like the real counterparts?
Every new fw release they simply contradict themselves, that's what i can't understand.
The problem is that tube amps don't sound the same from day to day. If they tweak the FW one day side-by-side with a Marshall plexi and get it 100% spot on, they'll have to redo it the following day. Un, deux, trois... Voila! Endless 'realer' updates!
I think Harry has the most likely idea
You have recognized my ambiguity - I could not resist 
Have Fun - Harry

Absolutely agree. There's nothing gained by bashing. Competition advances the state of the technology, which is good for all of us. Hey, just look at the progress over the past 10 years. What a great time for guitarists!
And remember..................................... Your existing sounds will change................. Pain in the butt i would say
And remember..................................... Your existing sounds will change................. Pain in the butt i would say
What's wrong with that, if previous sound was not that much tubier and realer? 
They are way past "more real" measured in hundred precents. This is so 2010. Now it's measured in 1000s%
What's wrong with that, if previous sound was not that much tubier and realer?
all FW updates on the AXE FX change yours patches. Thats one of the reasons i was put off buying one and then discovered the KPA
You have recognized my ambiguity - I could not resist
Have Fun - Harry
Hehe thanks... always try to have fun
The only way to avoid temptation is to give into it...
Quantum 2 LOL...still making me laugh a bit...
new firmware upgrade:
The Quantum Mechanics of Dropping a Deuce
by Ass FX
"Keepin' sh*t real since 1989" TM
What is funny is that Cliff could easily pull off something like simply changing some global compression curves, EQs, distortions, etc. and name it some quantum bullshit. People going crazy is guaranteed. Heck, he might have done it already! After all this is not rocket science. Lets not forget that what we are all obsessed with are only distorted sine waves... give or take a little mojo. Axe-Fx would be nowhere without the 'smart' choreographed marketing.
I would love to see a true double-blind test between old and new FW. Just the expectation of the new FW with all the new algorithms, etc. can easily convince you that it sounds better -- or 100% more realer! Just because it models more accurately doesn't mean that it will sound better. Maybe "improved" modeling just means extra fudge parameters to make it sound better ...which is what I gather from the press release on the models being more based on empirical data. Ironically, if you continue down this path of modeling based on empirical data (less on circuit schematics), you arrive at -- THE KEMPER!
BTW, for this new FW from Fractal, here's the same caveat:
NOTE: This firmware represents a significant update in the amp modeling and the amp models themselves. Many models have been redone. Although care was taken to ensure as much compatibility with existing presets as possible, your presets may be altered.
Personally I think this is another useless thread going nowhere.
And like all the threads before dealing with *that* same topic it will continue until everybody will have expressed his opinion.
It would be a great example of this forum's maturity if this very thread would simply die naturally.
