    Is there any way to simulate this with the AxeFx in real time?

    Apologies for the tiktok video, but it's short and to the point. Would love to start doing this in real time. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTR5BdrMf/

    Help needed ID'ing Dr Z amp.

    Sorry for the crap photo, but I was a fair distance away. Heard this amp at church today, with a small pedal board and sounded phenomenal. Rich and tasty. Bonus points for the guitar also 😅

    Does the Axe FX have the tools available to replicate this tone?

    Starting at 2:30 onwards. Sounds like a fuzz, and maybe ring mod? Not entirely sure though.

    Common amp mods and their respective Amp Block parameters.

    I'm wanting to know what parameters I need to touch on when approaching "modding" certain amp models in the AxeFx. We all know that Plexi's, and JCM800's have been modded throughout history with great success, with some even becoming their own industry leading entities. So the Jose Mod is...

    X-Over'd Reverb AITR tone.

    Building off my last preset I shared, I dialed up a dual reverb (one for the lowend, one for the highend) that sounds pretty great through my QSC 12s and sub FRFR setup and also my studio monitors ( Adam A7X) Any thoughts on it would be appreciated. Enjoy!

    Amp + Cab block not really necessary for a good tone?

    Simple tip for Recto tones

    For some gnarly tones, lower the master volume to the 0.50-0.90 range. This is plennnnty loud enough on the real amp, and more akin to what people are "used" to hearing when playing one. YMMV.
