Axe-Fx III Firmware Version 20.03 Release

[Dave Merrill]

Checking the new Klon drive model on a few boutique/blues-rock presets and a DI track. I love this kind of special sauce overdrive, I own a few clones/recreations of the mythical pedal myself - EHX Soul Food, Wampler Tumnus Deluxe, J Rocket Archer Ikon, I also have access to a friend's Ceriatone Centura

Those tones are seriously great (playing too!).

Are those presets from your commercial collections, with the Klon added?
If not, could you post them?
Love those kinds of sounds!

Gorgeous tones and playing.

Different batterys even taste different! Just try a alkaline and a zinc one with the tip of your tongue on the connection side. Zinc smell very well structured with a breath of citrus and vanille in the back.

Oral and rectal thermometers taste different too.

So true….the built in Shimmer Drive is still my favorite in the box……with everything! lol

Yes! The Shimmer Drive is excellent with the Plexi models.

I will take your word for that....

That was some tasty tones! The playing was also very nice

And the rectos

Wait, are we talking about amps or thermometers here?

Maybe both ^^

I must say, that new Klone Chiron is rather enjoyable. Thanks for another rocking update.

 

[CodePoet]

Would it be possible to get the Klone Chiron available as an Input Boost type in the Amp/Preamp area as a clean boost to save a drive block?

A video demonstration would be very helpful. Not sure Leon could be persuaded to do one, so it’s up to you.

How does one demonstrate a flavor via video? Pickle face? Stank face?

I find the Klone Chiron is also awesome with my clean amp block. Makes the highs nice and chimey if that is a word..... LOL....

@CodePoet - I LOVE this idea!

Except in my case, would have to tweak the treble knob (slight cut) and perhaps the advanced page bass cut (add more bass) on it - something ya can’t do in amp block boost drive types.

But better to have the Klone Chiron as option in amp block than not at all, it’s my favorite overdrive.

Else I’m grabbing the RCB boost type.

Great idea! @FractalAudio

I belive facial expressions are the only way to go. I'm not sure I want the full tutorial.

Great tone! Thanks for the demo.

What cab are you using?

 

[boz52]

Is there a post with a simple preset utilizing the Klon pedal ?

 

[trancegodz]

I was just trying out the DynDst blocks and they all seem to do exactly the opposite of what they are labeled.

Mid boost cuts mid, mid cut boosts mid, presence boost cuts presence, etc.

All of them do the opposite of what they are labeled.

The curve may look like that, but that’s what they do to the sound. A higher curve means more distortion, which equals compression, so what looks like a mid dip is actually allowing clean miss through while the highs and lows are distorted/compressed.
