So what's your point? I can go on any pro guitarist's website(s) and see their exact amp settings, pedals, etc. OR, I can simply dial stuff in myself... Basically he's selling his album for $10 or whatever and then the presets for a monetary gain of $190. If that's the case, then we should ALL be selling our presets instead of handing them out to each other. Apparently his albums are not selling for him to be selling PRESETS...I can see it being different if he were including actual gear used on the recordings, as that is something tangible...the presets are going to sound different to every single person, considering they are not going to have the exact same guitar, pickups, etc. Look at Spock's Beard...they have done crowd-funding and given actual gear, and Ryo has actually helped people with synth presets on the forums in the past...he did NOT charge for them. I LOL at anyone that is going to spend $200 on presets that they could just as easily come up with on their own.
Wow. Just wow. If you don't think they are worth it, don't buy em. I was never a big zappa fan but have enjoyed dweezil's rig tours. I admire his knowledge and dedication.
I also combine two axes and maybe Incan learn some tricks because I am thinking dweezil knows more about tone sculpting than I do.
I may wind up buying the presets to try and learn some techniques.
I may buy them to support a guy working hard to produce quality product and honoring his dad.
Maybe I will just buy them to piss you off as you seem to have a vested interest in how others spend their money.
