Epic band name!Angus Khan
That really is a kick ass nameI actually have both of them - haven't played them much, have been busy with my 2 bands - use my EVH Wolfgangs in one band, and my Epiphone SGs in my AC/DC Tribute band, Angus Khan.
I plan to have them set up at my local guitar shop and see if they play like butter!
I think one of the coolest new bands Iāve heard on the 2000s is Royal Blood. Iād suggest you guys check it out. So there is good music coming out.
But like many of you, I am having a harder and harder time separating the wheat from the chaff. Thereās just so much music coming out every week! Hard to keep up with the times.
Like many, I just stopped trying and pretty much rely on my trusty collection of CDs. And yes, I also live in the 80s, but also got a good chunk of the 90s in my head growing up.
This is Out of the Black by Royal Blood, the song that got me into the band. Hard to believe itās just a bassist and a guitarist! Space age! Video is superb too.
PS: Sorry, the video canāt show up here. No nudity or anything, itās just gratuitous violence.
Because we only had rock magazines/fanzines and rare radio stations. labels had staff paid to find āthe best bandsā. it sorted. today it is a total disaster since we are all self-produced. You put out a record, no one cares, they scroll through the song on their phone, listen for 15 seconds which takes you a year and move on.its just the market is saturated with thousands of legit bands. In the 70s and 80s there were only a hundred choices the whole planet had to choose from.
And which one in my inventory would be the " X , the Y and the Z " ??
I'll give it a try !I think Moke's tonematch preset is the closest for sure. nothing beats tonematch. but it also makes my point that sitting there playing guitar with a preset doesn't sound the same as recording it and playing it back. On my axe-fx III playing in the room with my guitar, my preset still sounds close, but on playback it's not even in the same neighborhood. So building on the closest preset so far, I added a multiband comp and adjusted to make it a little more polished. feel free to try this one and polish it even more.
I've started doing some modifications in my "studio control room" few weeks ago and i'm using my "cabs room " (where the recording cabs are) as a stocking room for that transition period so i can't mic anything at the moment...Hook me up with one of those IIC+ās and Iāll have your preset ready in about an hour, I just need to get out of work first.
Iāve championed (and been shot down here) for the Slate VSX headphones. You must take the room out of your presets if you expect them to translate, unless you have a room acoustically treated to the point you can trust it. Doesnāt matter how good your playback or monitoring is. If the room has problems, the preset will not translate.I think Moke's tonematch preset is the closest for sure. nothing beats tonematch. but it also makes my point that sitting there playing guitar with a preset doesn't sound the same as recording it and playing it back.

Here's my take, no tone match.
Iāll give it a try tomorrow! Too bad I no longer have my Explorer with EMGāsIt is. And it does sound great. Not that many presets made by others work for me out of the box, but this one does. Very minimal tweaking and there's lots it can be used for. Thank you @AlbertA !
Whenever you're ready buddy !!I am done with it already but with an external ir & i was going to create it also with an ir from the unit as well then send it, so as soon as i'm back home i'll be doing it & send it to you & then let me know what you think!
I donāt see why not, Iām only using two slots in the cab block.Sounds great! Any chance this preset is compatible with the FM9?
