Tinnitus is very complicated because it's a symptom and not a condition. You can get it from noise damage, poor blood flow, mineral/vitamin deficiency, stress, ear infections, ear wax build-up, muscle tension(TMJ) etc If you got T from noise damage which I presume a lot of people on a gear...

Even if its really good, easy to dial in a realistic tone, lots of amp models, can get sounds just like a Fractal Unit its still made by Line6. They have some of the worst customer service I've come across. Expect one or two updates 6-24 months after release that still won't fix half the issues.

Animals As Leaders Javier Reyes presets up on Axe-Change

For most of us its not about the sound but how they go about dialing in their presets. What parameters the tweak & what they don't touch, what amp models combined with cabs, setting up EQ and boasts in an unorthodox way, Post/Pre EQ, pushing the distortion with a really tight noisegate. I've...

Axe-fx II - Melodic Death Metal - FW9

Cheers guys!!! Ha, well what do you want to know? For tight palm mutes I set the low-cut to about 80hz, roll back the Proximity to cut some of the boominess from the cab and then use a slight shelf EQ to cut the lows and highs so the mids stand out more. I like how you can get very...

Axe-fx II - Melodic Death Metal - FW9

Original metal clip in D standard trying out Firmware 9 on the Axe-Fx 2. The improvement in palm mutes and dynamics is crazy. I wasn't sold on previous firmwares and was thinking of selling it but FM 9 has sealed the deal. I can't wait to see how FW 10 turns out. I'm using a blend of the Diezel...

Firmware 9 Metal Demo - DAS METALL + FAS 6160

Cheers! I quite like Schecter. This is one of there better built models compared to others in its price range and since I've never found sustain a problem.(Mainly because I'm playing hi-gain where a lot of the time I have a hard noise gate). To be honest I don't have much trouble playing "lower"...

Firmware 9 Metal Demo - DAS METALL + FAS 6160

Schecter C-1 Custom - Metal Demo - YouTube Playing some unaccompanied original riffs using a couple of different Das Metall and FAS 6160 patches. Cliff has really outdone himself with the latest firmware. Palm mutes are much more punchy/dynamic and everything feels much more repsonsive. Hi-gain...

Artist Patches?

I'm always interested to see how artists dial in their patches. What amps/cabs they use and then what advanced parameters they tweak.
