- New presets (and sub-presets) browser with the built-in search: find factory or user amp models and effect chains to create new patches.
- Added hundreds of new presets, sub-presets, new amp models (from Destructor 1.5) and new reverbs, delays and modulation effects from Late Replies 1.4.

Built-in effects
- New “Overdrive” and “Overgrind” distortion pedals.
