Hey everyone!
I am currently playing in a Rush tribute band for fun. Using the FM9 gives me all possibilities. However I am running into option paralysis on how to approach rig building.
My current approach was to build a kitchen sink preset that covered all eras and tones using amp channels and drive block channels. I wound then copy the preset for specific songs and make specific modifications. However this brings complications as you program for 40 years of tones and lots of configuration possibilities.
Another approach I thought was to build 3 main tone presets - to represent the three main eras of the band. Same thing would apply here - I could copy one of them and dial in specific things like delay times or whatever.
Maybe I am overthinking it - but how would you approach this? I thought the three separate presets would be easier to conceptualize as you just think “what were the main few pieces Alex used during this time”.
Looking for some insights on passionate “rig builders”.
