How To Get This Kind Of Synth Sound On A Bass

Hi Folks - I'm trying to come up with a block or combination of blocks in an existing preset I use on my bass for a funk band. The bass guitar in the intro of this Meters tune is what I'm after. Not sure if this would be just the Synth block, the Filter block, or a combination of the two...

AFIII More Mandelbrot Space Ambience

Yes, the AxeFX does ambient quite nicely, thank you (but we already knew that). Various ambient patches blended with virtual instruments and samples. Something for that next inner journey.

AFIII Robben Ford Inspired Bluesy/Latinesque Kinda Thing

Robben Ford inspired quickie we threw together as part of the Covid Collaboration series. All strings went thru the AFX III - Brit JM45 preset on the rhythm guitar, Dumble flavoring on the lead and Orange 200B on the bass. Still a little rough around the edges mix-wise, but gets the idea across.

AFIII Boden + Axe III = Ambient Space Trip

2019 was a shit year for me so Santa figured I needed a Strandberg Boden neck thru Trem Trans 6-string. The tonal versatility of these guitars is beyond amazing. While it shreds, djents, chimes and quacks very nicely, it also loves ambient patches. Completely lost track of time noodling about...

Can I Assign A Parameter *Modifier* To An FC Switch?

FC-12 arrived the other day and I'm loving the flexibility. Been reading the manual, reading through the threads and even checked out Chris's excellent videos on it. One thing I'm kinda scratching my head on though.... In one of my presets I want to turn the input boost on/off in the Preamp...

Another One Joins The 3'sters

Against my better fiduciary judgement, I've just pulled the trigger on a new III. I've had my FX2 XL for nearly 5 years and it's been the best piece of guitar kit I've ever purchased. Once the III arrives and I get my presets ported over, there'll be an AxeFX 2 XL and MFC mark III with Stomp...

Something A Little Different This Time

Been listening to a lot of Plini and Frost lately and was inspired to do something a little different. How well those influences are depicted in this particular tune is debatable, still, I had to give it a go. My solo project is primarily focused on zero beat, cinematic/ambient concoctions that...

Solo Guitar Ambience

A quick and dirty test using the Sweeping Ambience patch - end of the tune has a nice, swirly phaser/filter effect triggered with an expression pedal. Don't recall where this patch came from. I've looked thru the various factory patch archives I have and it's not in any of them. My own...

Had the pleasure of seeing Steven Wilson live in Portland, Oregon Tuesday night at the Alladin (kick ass show btw). I didn't like Steven's high gain tone when first hearing it back in the early PT days. After awhile, though, it kinda grew on me. He plays through a BadCat head and 4x12 cabinet...

Fat King Vibro

Built using 18.03 f/w on an XL. Very simple patch with Amp, Cab and Reverb blocks. Uses the Vibra-King Fat amp and the new 1x12 Brown M160 (UR) cab (F005 on the XL's). Really great example of how expressive the G3 modelling and this cab are. Responds really well to picking dynamics. Designed for...
