This question is mostly directly towards people in "traditional" band settings playing original material. I suppose I could further refine the question to be directed at people who are going for a core sound across songs, rather than lots of different amps and cabs and sounds.
Do you have a dedicated preset for each song?
Or do you have a couple core presets that cover most of the material and a couple song-specific presets for the songs that require something additional?
Or ?
Before I switched to the Axe-Fx I had rigs that I ran in mostly a "one bank per song" setup (GSP1101 then t.c. g-system). It made preset managment a nightmare, plus all the inherent issues of latency, dropout, effects tails, etc. Scene switching was a huge selling point for me going the Axe route and I suddenly found I could have one patch per song. But now I wonder if even that is overkill. (NB: I use global amps, and a number of global fx blocks.)
Just curious what other people's approaches are.
