    Emulating Korg SDD300

    I personally use sdd into vintage digital delay, changing the mod waveform to triangle, hi cut to 17khz and bit rate to 11 (which is actually 13 being a reverse value). Mod speed between 3.6 and 3.9, and depth between 45 and 55 - those get you really close to what I consider the sweet spot on...

    Question about vol/pan block

    I just happened to find out by accident that when you have 2 amps / cabs in parallel, usually when you switch from A/B to A+B the volume gets louder, but if I use the vol/pan block after the amps and pan one cab left (setting channel A of the vol/pan to left only) one cab right (setting channel...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 23.05 Release

    Sounds very exciting! Just out of curiosity, does this have to do with more correct values over existing parameters or is it an entirely different algorithm? In other words, for fm9 and fm3 can we just copy the new af3 default values or do we have to wait for a new fw?

    Vox Ac30 Midrange

    AF3 into Vox AC15 Amp

    It's the way my presets are routed. I split the signal after the fx chain before the amp block on 2 parallel paths, one path goes to amp / cab sims and to output 1 L&R, the other path goes into an fxl block to output 2 L. This way you can either use amp sims using output1, a real amp using...

    AF3 into Vox AC15 Amp

You might need to adjust some fx level based on your amp settings, as the levels in my presets rely on the amp sim at edge...
