    AFIII New Tech/Progressive Metal Tune! 🎵

    Hey guys! Hope everyone is well, just wanted to share the latest single from my project “The God Particle!” I wrote his song with Dan Sugarman from Ice Nine Kills and Chris Clancy! As always my tone is 5150 block going in to a Marshall IR with a screamer in front. Proud of how it turned out, let...

    AFIII Finally dialled in my guitars the way I like!

    Hey guys, I think I finally found my ideal tone. I’ve been in love with the Peavy 5150 block model forever but I tried the 5153 red for a change with a custom Mesa IR on a new track and it turned out way better than I thought. It seems like more low end punch which I love.. Let me know what you...

    AFIII New Year and a New track! Metal content 🔥🤘

    Hey guys! Happy New Year to everyone, I started a new project called The God Particle this year and we just released the first single “Alive.” I’ve changed my setup for my guitar tone when recording this one, and I’m really happy with it. I ran a real Peavey 5150 signature into a load box, then...

    Awesome thanks a ton dude!

    Load Box Levels for Real Amp

    Also one more quick question if you don’t mind, what would be the right level for my setup? Tickling the red on meters?
  9. Shredder3386

    Load Box Levels for Real Amp

    K awesome thanks for the reply! I’ll go through and reset all the blocks, although primarily it will just be the drive the gate and the cab. I’ll make sure to slowly bring up the drive level from 0. Any other output that would work better given that 4 is unity or it is 4 the best option?

    Load Box Levels for Real Amp

    Hey guys, Just got a Suhr reactive load box so I can finally run my beloved Peavey 5150 in to the Axefx. My patch is essentially will be GUITAR-> IN 1-> GATE -> DRIVE -> OUT4 -> IN4 -> CAB. I was just curious what you guys typically set your levels too so I don't risk damaging my amp. I was...

    Load Box Suggestions

    Haha that’s my plan. It has different 6L6 tubes in it (Rubys I believe) so it may sound different. Probably nothing that couldn’t be changed with some EQ adjustment though.

    Ya those two seem to be the two best bang for the buck. Thinking I’m gonna grab the Suhr right away too.

    Cool, I had never heard of that one. Just checked it out and it looks awesome. Although admittedly a bit beyond my budget (and probably intelligence haha)

    Awesome, ya the models are world class for sure. For me it’s less about FRFR and more just for recording. I want to run a bunch of pedals by different manufacturers (plus I’ve always wanted a 5150) so I just need a way to bring the amp to line level and use the cab sims,EQ, and time based...

    Thanks for the reply man! I’ve been looking at the Shur the most currently. The impedance curve thing would be cool, but I guess I’m happy as long as it still makes the amp sound incredible. You’ve had no issues thus far with it?

    Ya you could probably get the exact sound using the reverb blocks but I'm not much for tinkering haha. I'm usually best at creating heavy rhythm patches, but not so much for clean.

    Trivium Chaos Reigns Cover w/Quantum FW - METAL CONTENT

    Thanks man! I believe the guitars were 5153 Red. I based it off any old patch I've liked for awhile, then blended a tone match from the original song. The opening of the song was perfect for tone matching, as Matt and Corey's guitar parts appear unaccompanied for the first little while.

    Hey guys, its been a good while since I posted anything new, so in between writing my album I decided to cover a Trivium song.

    OwnHammer AMPG BASS Multi-Speaker Collection

    Awesome, thanks I'll have to try that out. I wouldn't normally use a limiter for that purpose (usually staged compression on the master buss) but I just wanted this test to be loud so people wouldn't have to crank their speakers. I guess I didn't think about what the limiter would do to the tone...

    Get ready for more Ownhammer

    Yup that's all you need. Its pretty easy to get up and running, you just load the .ir files from wherever you saved them after download. then mix to taste using the scratchpad. When you find a mix you like send it to your user cab slot, select the cab and bingo....tonal bliss.

    My tone quest ended the day I discovered OH IRs. No matter how many cab packs I buy from other parties, I always end up going back to my OH library because it just sounds better both in the mix and live. Currently I'm hooked on the V3 ENGL library with celestions, but I'm definitely curious...

    Ownhammer smaller cabs

    I've said it before, but my tones improved 100% when I started using cab lab. I rate it as a necessary purchase if you own the Axefx, even before things like the MFC.

    I find it very easy to use and its got great features. I used to make these complicated presets with tons of cab blocks, eqs, etc and it was a mess.

    I have an ibabez prestige with crunchlab and liquifire. I suggest trying out some different amp IRs if you aren't finding the ones you like in the factory settings. Amp choice also makes a big difference in your tone. Certain amps like Mesa Boogies tend to sound more boomy then others...
  81. Shredder3386

    Cab-Lab worth it? Ownhammer

    Cab Lab is probably the most important Axe related purchase you will ever make. It allows you to create the ultimate tone without trying to stack and/or mix different cabs and mics. I went from complicated presets with multiple amp/cab blocks to a simple DRIVE-AMP-CAB preset. Well worth it.

    Getting rid of ground loop buzz with Axe fx and Elec. Guitar. Good way of fixing it?

    I had a similar problem for months and it drove me crazy. To fix this issue I started using noise gates to help deal with the noise a little bit when I stopped playing. I place a noise gate at the front and end of my chain and it usually does the trick. Just make sure not to choke your tone too...

    Ya Im in the process of building a home studio, so I think I might invest in a quality interface and grab a few condenser mics one of these days. I guess the beauty of the Axefx is I haven't needed any of these things yet haha.
  86. Shredder3386

    Axe and acoustic guitar

    Awesome, thanks for the advice and clarification Rex. I figure thats probably my best option. I don't own a mic and the axefx is my sole interface, so getting an authentic mic'd tone might not be in the cards for a while. Thanks man.
