So far, it appears that the 10 new cabs are:

2x15 D130
4x12B FRD
4x12 FRD
4x12 SOL
4x12 RCT
4x12B V30
4x12B GB
4x12B 75W
1x12 BB15
1x12 EV

Anyone have any info on these? The V30, GB, and 75W, I'm familiar with, but what does the B stand for?

The B stands for Bright. I find I like them more than the originals or the darker cabs. If I want I can drop the treble or presence or I can drop an EQ in behind the cab, to shape the tone further if I want to. I am really digging all the new cabs. It may just be my ears, but the bright versions seem more open in the mids to me as well.

Is there a book out that would teach me what all the amp settings mean and what good settings are. I am new to this type of amp with all the sag and different terms.

Version 2.0.21 (September 5, 2018)

New Amp Models (10)

IIC+ Clean: Inspired by the clean channel of the Mesa/Boogie Mark IIC+MB. 

IIC+ Lead: Quintessential mid-’80s metal tones inspired by the Mesa/Boogie Mark IIC+MB lead channel. 

BB15 Low: Based on the low gain structure setting of the Bassbreaker 15.
BB15 Med: Based on the medium gain structure setting of the Bassbreaker 15. 

BB15 High: Based on the high gain structure setting of the Bassbreaker 15. 

FBE-100: Inspired by both lead channels (BE and HBE) of the Friedman BE-100. 

Acoustasonic: For use with piezo-equipped electric/acoustic guitars. Based on the preamp of Fender’s award-winning Acoustasonic amps; flexible string-dynamics feature with selectable notch frequency. 

Acoustic Sim: Six distinctive acoustic guitar simulations for transforming electric guitar with great-sounding acoustic tone. Paired with Acoustasonic preamp for additional tone shaping. 

Dual Showman: Based on the ’60s/’70s all-tube Fender classic used on big stages everywhere. 

Tube Preamp: Direct-to-mixing-desk studio purity with increased tube console-like harmonic coloration. 


New Effects (7)

Modulated Small Hall Reverb: Builds on Fender’s Small Hall Reverb by 
adding lush modulation to internal reverb structure. Added high- and 
low-frequency cut controls further expand creative possibilities. 

Modulated Large Hall Reverb: Similar to Mod Small Hall Reverb above, 
with modulation added to internal structure of Fender Large Hall 
 

Mythic Drive: Inspired by the ’90s-era Klon Centaur; a germanium-diode 
overdrive with smoothly subtle color and character from a complex gain structure that blends clean and distorted signals without significantly altering guitar tone. 

Sustain: Inspired by the MXR M-163 Sustain, a rare 1980s compressor pedal with a particularly strong compression effect and a short attack time.
2290 Delay: Inspired by the TC Electronic TC 2290 delay, a 1980s 
studio-standard digital delay still sought after today for its crisp repeats 
and versatile panning/modulation options. 

Memory Delay: Inspired by the Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man, 
a late-’70s “bucket-brigade” delay pedal that imparts distinctive 
character to repeats and modulation. 

Metal Gate: Inspired by the ISP Technologies Decimator II G String pedal. 
Especially ideal for high-gain metal, with a very fast attenuation curve. 


New Cabinet Simulations (10) 


Those are the release notes and the manual and online guides have the old amps and what they are modeled after in the App itself. Also, the effects are there with brief explanations also. The presets are a great way to start though. You can strip away all the effects and hear the amps core sounds and note the way that the amp is set up. Adding EQ, both before and after or just before, or just after, can drastically change the sounds of the amps also...

I hope this helps you some?

Thanks for the link, Riffy!
There are definitely a lot of well thought out additions in v2. Just a little thing, but I really like the midrange control shortcut, using the treble knob.
