This may be the wrong place for this post however, I hooked up my brand new M3 (w/firmware 1.9) to Fuse 2.6.x and noticed that I can not tweak the SAG, BIAS or any of the other advanced tweaks. The only thing I have access to is the Noise Gate and the Cabinet type. Anybody know what's up with that? P.S.>I'm loving the sound of this amp so far. No fizz. Got the amp last week.

You can't access them from within FUSE, or you can't access them from the amp while FUSE is plugged up.

I have the amp connected to Fuse and I can't access them through Fuse. I thought Fuse was the only way to access them. Can I tweak from the amp? How? Thanks.

There is an "advanced amp" button in FUSE; if you click that, you should see the additional controls. Did it escape notice by chance?

Press the "amp" button once, and you will see the first page of controls, typically gain, (preset) volume, treble, mid, bass, reverb; press again, and you'll see a second page with sag, bias, gate, and cab (and possibly a couple of other controls, varying by amp model).

Press exit when done editing (don't forget to save if you like what you've created).

HTH,

PITA

PITA-Yes, there is an advanced amp in Fuse. That's the one I have no control over. I will try the settings on the amp itself. Thanks for your help.

Is it possible that those settings are only available for certain amps? I didn't try them all.

Do you mean to say that you've clicked on the advanced amp button but did *not* see the new page of controls in FUSE?

Or did you go to that page but for some reason are unable to change the values in FUSE (virtual knobs are unresponsive, or ...)?

All amps have advanced settings, but they vary somewhat (and some don't have as many as others).

@PITA. The latter. I see them but they are not active.

No, the behavior you're describing is highly unusual. You can make changes from the amp itself, right? Using the Amp button and the digital wheel?

Hey Guys,

As I mentioned to Pathtaker via PM, it's probably just a glitch. Anytime you see that kind of behavior the best thing to to is trash FUSE and reinstall it. You may also want to get the latest version of Silverlight.

Ok, so I trashed and re-installed both Silverlight and Fuse. (using latest versions of both) as Loren suggested.
I double clicked on one of the advanced settings that I couldn't access before, a dialog box comes up that says "syncing with amp". Now it works!! Thanks guys!
