    Dynacabs! Post your best recipes!

    Wow!! This is great. The fizzy high end has been the toughest thing to dial out for me. This definitely helps. edit: The room level and air parameters seem to be more reactive with the mic alignment that way. I've never touched either of those two parameters but noticed a touch of room...

    Ibanez ATZ 100 Andy Timmons Signature

    I believe I saw a vid w/ Andy saying there's a treble bleed in the guitar, which makes sense if all three pickups are the same or have the same output. Curious: Do most Ibanez guitars have treble bleeds? My first 'real' guitar is a 1987 RG550. The neck humbucker and middle single coil...

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 25.00 Public Beta #2 (Cygnus X-3 Release Candidate)

    This is the post that has me confused. Not picking on you @iaresee (it's not you, it's me :tonguewink:) I currently have 25p00_beta2 installed and I left my parameters the same (I liked the tone). The firmware is equal to 25.00 right? I read this two ways: 1. The parameters listed will...

    Van Halen Influence... bought a new guitar, new Fractal Sound :)

    After Ed passed I bought the EVH Frankie. It put me on a year long journey back into the old tones. I've been playing with 10's on all of my guitars for the last 25 years and it was shipped with 9 thru 46. The lighter string gauge totally lent itself to the way Ed played, IMO. and made it...

    Loss of volume and tone was destroyed!

    I assume people use a Matrix or SD Power Stage to power 2x12 guitar cabs. You mentioned you have a 1960A (4x12). Aren't people pushing guitar cabs with SS amps? The SS amps are almost always high watt output. I need to go back and re-read this thread because I feel like I'm missing...

    I've never blown a speaker. Do you think they were blown prior to using this set up or do you think it happened while trying to get your sound figured out with the Ax8 rig? In my mind, I'm picturing a speaker making a 'boom' noise or something to inform me it's been blown. I ask this...

    Knob Riders: OD/Amp or Amp Alone for better cleanup?

    Treble bleed and a low output pickup is how I'm able to achieve that dynamic. The trade off is that I use a OD (sometimes two) in front of the amp to get that neck pickup violin type tone. Without the OD boost it sounds stratty (because it's a single coil) and that's a cool tone too. I...

    Modern Hard Rock Amps

    If you load the Revv Purple, you may not even have to tweak it. I'm astonished at how close it sounds to my tweaked out Marshal tone that I've worked on for 3 years. The tweaks are baked in. Also don't sleep on the 5153 Stealth. It's pretty close as is too.

    Your current fav Marshallesque amps?

    So... in the later updates I think the Plexi's behave like their real deal amps, particularly in the way you dial in the treble and bass gains. That being said, I cannot figure out how to dime both gains without the amp needing a boost or OD to 'smooth' it out and then it's to much. I've...

    @Budda I just set up a Plexi preset with all of the Plexi's as you described. The 1970 is awesome but doesn't clean up like the 1959 IMO. At least not where I've got the gain set on the 1970. I'd been screwing around between all the 'pure' Plexi models and recently added the Brit Brown and my...

    Daisy chaining amps together, would it work on your Fractal?

    Joe says he's 'daisy chaining' them and not using a splitter, right? Is he running out of the Dumble's Fx Loop out into the front input of the Fender and then dialing the treble/bass up on the Dumble and then dialing the mid up on the Fender? If so, then I've always had it wrong: I thought...

    Thinking of picking up a new Gibson Explorer this year.

    100% this. @dsouza You should be able to achieve Edge like tone with your Les Paul. I know this is stating the obvious, but the volume knob is your friend. Find that Edge tone with volume knob around 4 to 7 give or take. Maybe it's the middle position (bridge and neck), giving you even more...

    Thinking of picking up a new Gibson Explorer this year.

    I love them. I want one. But I also know it would be redundant for me because of the HB/HB configuration is something I have with my Les Paul and my Warmoth build. I also feel like an Explorer would inspire me to delve into Edge, play more Hetfield and dial in the early VH. My friend loaned...

    Best way to tighten up flubby low notes on plexi 50w?

    My first thought. A boost cleans up the flubbiness on tube amps. Of course you get the added gain. Or PEQ to dial out the offending frequency or frequencies.

    A little late to the game but holy crap the Revv is amazing !

    Wow.. I don't have to change a knob and it sounds killer. I've spent years tweaking my #1 preset to get these little nuances and it's there right when I add the amp block and cab block. Both, the legacy and Dyna's sound good too. Very impressive.

    The Morning Glory Thickener

    Changing the Preamp Type to Tube, Drive to 4.00 and Saturation to 1.00 took out the high end fizziness for me. I'm using Fender amp blocks with a Dynacab but the tone is very much like a ODS that I'd hear from one of the rare ODS owners.

    Great tone and great playing! Are you using it as a backline and running another out to the PA? It sounds like you could keep up with a band and it could be your amp in the room without any PA help, like in a rehearsal room or small stage.

    Best Models for Strat High Gain?

    Goose the input Trim and shape the input EQ with more of mid hump instead of the flatline. The added input volume and mid spike should drive the amp model more than the stock parameter. FWIW I think Ty Tabor's tone kills, particularly because I can hear the single coil in his tone. Getting...
