If I don't use multiple delays per rig and don't need morphing, is there any reason to *NOT* use 3.3?

Look at the complete list of changes- that will answer your question better than anyone else can.
-
There are some bug fixes in the beta that still make it worth updating. But, like Paults said, looking at the complete list is the best way you'll know if you do want to go ahead. I updated yesterday and did a gig with it the same night, no problems. So far, so good :-).

IMO and FWIW, the difference between the 2 is like day and night. I say 4.0x beta is streets ahead...

Just the included morph demos by D. Petersen (not sure whether he also authored the amp profiles themselves though) are very classy and playable. I am not even sure these Rigs were already available elsewhere, but the selection is play for a lifetime. The levels are just right for all the demoed Rigs.
As I was testing the morph feature, I actually became more interested in the presets themselves in terms of sonics, and nearly forgot about morphing.
I fav'd almost all ten of them, and automatically made it to my uberexclusive list of profiles, which only include 60 now out of the nearly 20 000 available atm.The morphing itself works well.

No

Don't forget the new bugs that also come with 4.0. There are simply too many reports of crashes with the beta for me to take the plunge just yet.

Wait for the stable release, but I would make the upgrade. There are a lot of other features in 4.0, such as the ability to set pure cabinet globally.
Also, while you may not see any use of features such as multiple delays and morphing right now, you will never know for sure till you try them.

This one is also in the release FW 3.3. -
Keep in mind that 4.0 is still a beta. F.e. I posted that i used it at a jam session yesterday and the function of the vol. expression pedal gets lost . . Dont know if it appears again. After this switching it works for the next hours. Could be that it isnt a bug and it was only a small failure in my kpa , i dont know.

This one is also in the release FW 3.3.Wait. I am confused. Do you guys have it reversed? I thought that originally the Pure Cabinet was only a global feature, but with the new firmware, Pure Cabinet can now be set on a rig-by-rig basis.

Pure Cabinet is still only global. -
Pure Cabinet is still only global.Maybe the free space in the cab section ( cab volume has changed to the amp section ) is an indicator that they are planning to change pure cab in the cab section and we can use it per rig with one of the next updates. Hope so. I miss the volume function right in the cab section. It was comfortable to use it there right after setting the cab. With new fw you have to change to the amp section for using it.
If they put pure cab in the cab section my request is to put the volume back in the cab section and create a page 2 for setting pure cab and hopefully space directely in the cab section.cheers

Pure Cabinet is still only global.LOL...then I am still confused. If the Pure Cabinet feature, since it's introduction in 3.1, has always been only a global setting, then why bring up the topic at all? In other words, What did Nightlight mean by his original statement, and what did you mean by your subsequent reply?

LOL, I don't know, think @nightlight just confused it in his original statement. -

I've heard from several folks that i greatly respect that the pure cab technology isn't ready for prime-time so I probably won't be taking advantage of that.

Umm... I don't know how it could be more ready for Prime-time.
I suggest to turn up PureCab and listen what it doesto the sound coming out of your FRFR speakers or headphones. -

Hi, don't agree. Pure cab in combination with the wonderfull space parameter is a gamechanger for me. I think the sound is much better. I dont use it on a high level, my settings are pure cab at 3,2 and space at 4,5. Would be nice when pure cab and space is storable per rig, but at the moment it is global, so set it and forget it.
cheers

LOL, I don't know, think @nightlight just confused it in his original statement.Really? Global since 3.1? I never noticed it before 4!!
I remember when it first came as a hidden setting in one of the updates. But I stopped using artist mode for a while. I just saw it in the cab section because I scrolled past SPDIF volume for the first time.
Eep.
