I thought I'd share this one with you
It's my Soldano X99 based Lukather tone from around 1990. I tried to make it as authentic as possible, so I modelled all the effects he used, plus no poweramp sim (straight preamp sounds for Luke during this time, into a SS poweramp). In the preset, I also have the same pitch settings that he used in his SPX900, a very close version of his TC1210 chorus, and both the Circular and Panned Delays from the Lexicon PCM70s. I also have a general hall reverb in the preset. The pitch shift and reverb was ALWAYS ON during this time of Lukes sound.
FOR LEADS: He normally used just the Circular Delays (Multi Dly 1) for leads, and sometimes kicked in the Panned Delays (Multi Dly 2) for really big leads. He also used the chorus sometimes to really spread the sound out (like "Little Wing" from the Paris concert, and parts of "Without your love"). I have to point out that i didn't play rhythm on the lead channel, as it was too thick.
FOR CLEANS: If he played something funky and tight, if was normally just the pitch, compressor and reverb. For big chords and stuff, he addes the chorus, and sometimes one and both of the delays. I adjusted the compression to sound like his, so it uses the RMS detection.
I hope you enjoy it
EDIT: I will continue to update these presets when new firmware hits. My goal is for these presets to always sound the best with the current firmware.
