Almost there!

I've started to get really comfortable with the feel and sounds of the Axe-fx now. I have made some disappointing discoveries, but almost all of them was because I did not understand the unit good enough. As an example I did not get the delay spillover to work at first. I enabled it but it did not work. After some reading I found out that it was not enough to enable delay spillover, you also need to set spillover behaviour on the actual effect in order to get it to work. 
The only disturbing thing left now is that I still get a short delay when changing between some scenes. I don't like that at all. I would really like this switching to be instant without the short volume drop. I actually had the same problem in the "real" world with my ENGL-rig due to relay switching. But the volume drop during scene switching in Axe-fx is much longer, when it happens. When it does not happen the Axe-fx switching is seamless. 
I don't fully understand what couses the slow switching between certain scenes, but I think one candidate can be switching between A-B Amp when changing scenes. A new firmware was released just recently so I upgraded the unit, but unfortunate the problem was not solved. The struggle goes on...

I have to go to bed now, so happy trails and see you later!!

Rock on!
