Hello everyone!
After seeing the great interview made by @Marco Fanton to @Marco Sfogli I guessed it would be fun to create a preset inspired by his live sounds with PFM.
What was born for fun is becoming my main preset during rehearsal.. I play original tunes with a new band and we space from rock to metal, through progressive vibes... so here I have almost every sound I need.
CABS
In the video he uses stock IRs (included in the channel A) but I made also a DynaCab version as default (channel C). It's pretty similar to my uneducated ears.
Channels A and C are based on Mesa Rectos, channel B (bonus sound) on a 4x12 basketwave TV
AMPS
Usa rhythm 1 for the clean, USA Lead Mid Gain Bright for crunch + lead.
The bonus sound on scene 7 is a pimped Bogfish.
Scene change from crunch to lead is gapless (made by modifiers... while we wait for the new gapless implementation!)
SCENES
GUITAR
He's using his charvel signature, with EMG SA + 89. I'm using a typical Ibanez combo (Air Norton + Tone Zone) and I made no major changes... it just work.
I assume you should take care of this peculiar set of pickups and adjust to taste.
FC CONTROLS
I'm using the FM3 + volume pedal (that is placed before the delay, just to be able to perform swells).
layout:
PERFORM PAGE
Amp controls, delay levels and mostly important: low/high cut and input trim.
Depending on the venue I just cut the right amount and if I need more or less gain I use the Input trim
I was trying to load it on axechange but the firmware 7 is not listed... @Admin M@ maybe it should be added

Video reference (sorry it's in Italian) pointed to the sound examples
CLEAN
CRUNCH + LEAD
Hope you enjoy!
