Try various factory presets with amps or titles you recognize.

Try this one as a starting point. I think it's a flexibe way to start

I am here to continue to sing the praises of @Cainer's Super Reverb preset.

You can hear it in action in all the clips he posts here. A recent one:

Solidly worth the $15 or so he asks for it IMHO. Aimed at Strat players but I've used it with my Telecaster and my humbucker-equipped hollow PRS without much to do in the way of adjustments.

I would love to get this
Unfortunately I’m using an FM3

I think it'd fit just fine. Can test it tonight and tell you. (Assuming you meant @Cainer's preset)

Yes Cainers preset
That would be much appreciated @iaresee

The factory Super Reverb patch is a good starting point. I push the gain up to about 5 or 6 for some bluesy dirt. Roll back the guitar volume for glassy cleans. Kick on the drive block (TS808) for SRV style leads.

It's a decent fit. You lose the third drive block and the second reverb block, but you could use channels on the other blocks to over come that lose without issue. I'd lose the Octave Distortion drive block; that'd be my recommendation. Move that to Drive 1 with the Fuzz Face and leave the Klone Chiron on drive 2 right before the amp block.

You can just use channels on the one reverb block to overcome the loss of the second reverb block.





I had to slide a bunch of block to the left after importing it in to my (non-turbo) FM3 but that was it. CPU is just peachy. You could lose the rotary or the phaser in a pinch to free up some space. The PEQ isn't active in any scene either. There for correcting on the fly when @Cainer gigs, I believe.

Invest with confidence.

Riding that volume control on a Strat with the Super Reverb running hot is the key to success.

Thank you!
This was very helpful.

Just bought the Super Reverb preset via Cainer's web site. Sounds great !!

 

[duzie]

I’m enjoying this preset as well @Cainer
Thanks for checking to see how this fit on the FM3 @iaresee
FM3 turbo running at 72.4 cpu

So I bought the preset last week and gigged it last night. It really is a fabulous addition. So much texture, cuts through the mix and very useful for a cover band. For $15, a steal! Thanks @Cainer!

cuts through the mix

That's what I loved about it on my first outing with it. There's a ton of cut without it being shrill. I'm riding my tone controls on my Silver Sky more with this preset and enjoying being able to dial them up when I want to slice through a little more. The other guitarist in my band tends to dial in this these "big" tones, so I can slice through that pretty well with @Cainer's super reverb settings.
