 It can't be ported to the current hardware because they don't have enough memory. DynaCab HD has higher temporal and spatial resolution and uses a LOT more memory. There's also 11 mics vs. 4.

 When you use an external IR in a preset and you want to share the preset/sound, you need to share the preset as well as the impulse response. There are two ways around this:
-* Integrate the impulse response in the preset by replacing the Cab block with a [[Tone Match block]], after having captured the tone of the Cab block.
+* Integrate the impulse response in the preset by replacing the Cab block with a Tone Match block, after having captured the tone of the Cab block.
 * Create a [[Presets#Preset-Cab_bundle|Preset-Cab bundle]], if the firmware and editor support this.

 Low Cut and High Cut are also available per individual IRs in the Cab block, including selectable filter slopes.

 FILTER SLOPE in current firmware selects between 1st order (6 dB/octave), 2nd order (12 dB/octave), 3rd order (18 dB/octave) and 4th order (24 dB/octave) filters for LOW cut and HIGH CUT, and lets you use different slopes for LOW CUT resp.

 Smoothing is available in Legacy and DynaCab Mode on the Axe-Fx III. The FM3, FM9 and AM4 do not support smoothing on the device itself.
-[[Cab-Lab]] can apply this process when mixing impulse responses together, to produce an IR with the effect built-in. Doing this allows the AX8, FM3 and FM9, which do not support hardware smoothing, can benefit from this feature.

 Smoothing does not increase CPU usage or audio latency.

 The Cab block in current firmware displays an alignment graph showing a zoomed time series of the IRs. This allows visual adjustment of the mic distance. When using IRs that have not been minimum-phase processed, this facilitates aligning the IRs.
-If you're unable to line up the IRs, you probably need to trim an IR to remove leading silence using [[Cab-Lab]] or the editor.

 Deliberately mis-aligning DynaCabs can add a desirable twist to the sound. Watch the video below.

 If the preset contains only the CAB 1 block, Auto Impedance controls both AMP 1 and AMP 2 blocks. If the preset contains CAB 1 and CAB 2 blocks, CAB 1 controls AMP 1, and CAB 2 controls AMP 2.
