Dire Straits - "Money For Nothing"

Hey all - I've been absent for some time with illness and other BS but thought this was a preset people might find interesting - lots of people have been asking about this tone in various sub-forums. It's an odd tone for sure but I've basically followed the few bits of information out there...

Silverchair - Frogstomp/Freak Show

Given there seem to be a few similarly aged Axe FX users on here that probably had these albums as teenagers, I thought I would try doing some non-tone matched presets for these albums. Took a long time to get them right because the EQ profiles are pretty weird - you'll definitely have to adjust...

Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun

Had a go at reworking an old preset I created when I first got my MKII AxeFX - it isn't 100% there but it's pretty close-I used pretty good stems for reference but trying to get through the wall of sound was pretty tough. Video: There are a few more recent presets/TMs on my site as well if...

System Of A Down - Toxicity

Have a few new TM's on my blog - http://axefxpresets.blogspot.co.uk/ - all for free :) Think the System Of A Down one is probably of most interest but the others may be to a select few as well. SOAD - Toxicity: Alice In Chains - Them Bones: Failure - Fantastic Planet:

Deftones - Around The Fur Tone Match

Hey everyone, I've been hard at work on more TMs and this is one of my favourites. I've done two separate presets, one using the Brit Pre (which is actually a more accurate TM) and one using the ENGL (slightly easier on the ear). One may suit your guitar better than another. Otherwise, adjust to...

Faith No More - The Real Thing Tone Match

Hey everyone, I put up a preset for this quite some time ago and decided to revisit it. I think this is much improved and hopefully any fellow FNM fans will enjoy using this preset. It's using the IIC++ amp model just for a bit more gain and bite over the old USA Lead amp model I used before...

Disturbed - "Down With The Sickness"

I decided to revisit this tone match I did ages ago with firmware Q3.03. You've heard this song a million times and they're far from my favourite band but equally, it's pretty fun to play. Hopefully this might be useful to you if you play in a covers band or enjoy playing along to this album...

Megadeth-Countdown To Extinction Tone Match

I've recently spent some time re-working a patch I put on axechange ages ago - I just couldn't get rid of the fizz but I think this is somewhat improved. Enjoy :)

Metallica - Load album tone match

There's been quite a few threads recently about the Load sound so I thought I would share my attempt as well. I thought I'd use one of the lesser known tracks from the album as well, Wasting My Hate as it's short and sweet. Enjoy :)
