I just flashed to 1.9 and had to reset all of the levels on the Variax down significantly or else I got a horrible clipping sound that I didn't get with any of the prior patches.  Any one else hearing this with the new patch?  Any thing to do other than turn all of the volumes way down?

Another problem that is now driving me crazy (I am going back to 1.82) with my HD500 is that the clipping issues seems to be present in some models no matter what I do in the Variax model.  I have some of the Spank model set up perfect in terms of levels and then I go back to the HD500 editing program and the the Spank guitar patches go up in level and start to clip all on the same patch I used in the Variax program to set levels (just a clean patch with just the mixer setup to the center) - this is making me crazy - any ideas???
