Mama's back ... again (AE 3.x): The Mother Of All Pedal and Effect Emulations thread

Here are some Boss DS-1 emulation blocks I made from prometh's posted settings.

Theres your standard Boss DS-1 then the two Keeley switch mods.
Each Keeley Mod drive block requires the associated filter block in front of it. Enjoy.

Anyone got a shimmer reverb block? I am a noob with dialing effects

Takes two blocks. Run them in parallel with your dry signal as seen on the top row here:

Anybody try a Klon Centaur?

I did on Sunday. Through an old Vibro-King. To be honest, I found it incredibly over-rated and would never buy one in a million years at that price. Even if it were around the normal boutique pedal price of £150. Even the owner said it was really overrated. Personally, I tried at £28 overdrive at a jam the night before through a Vibro-King and it did a much better job.

And if you did want a Klon - go and get a Klone copy (plenty of them around in various guises). They are dead on replicas for sound. I prefer them through a slightly darker amp at reasonable volume.

Check out the man with the humbuggies and white coily cable....Mr Gearmanndude!

Thanks Yek! This is awesome. How awesome that someone else does all the work and I get to just click…….way awesome. Thank you!
 
Once upon a time, dear people, there was the The Mother-of-all-pedal-and-effects-emulations thread. An initiative to share real-world pedal and effects emulations on the Axe-Fx Standard and Ultra.
Then there was the follow-up for Axe-Fx II: Mama's back.

The current version of Axe-Edit 3.x doesn't allow importing blocks from those threads.
Also, you can't import individual effect blocks into Axe-Change yet.

So in the meantime, here it is: Mama's back ... again: The Mother Of All Pedal and Effect Emulations thread.

The old rules still apply:

  1. For Axe-Fx II only. Requires Axe-Edit 3.02 or later.
  2. List the parameter values in your post, or attach a .BLK file. BLK files are saved individual effect blocks, from AE's Block Library. To save or load: in Axe-Edit 3.02 and later right-click on a block, select Library > Save or Recall. To be able to recall a saved block, BLK files must reside in \Documents\Fractal Audio\AxeEdit\Blocks\(subfolder). AE automatically moves BLK files in (...)\Blocks to the correct subfolder.
  3. Keep it simple: preferable single effect blocks. If necessary accompanied by a Controllers block if the effect depends on - for example - specific Envelope settings.
  4. Try not to go wild. Keep it to proven emulations, not the "I-think-I-have-captured-Eric-Johnson's-tone-using-the-Metal-Zone" result from late last night.
  5. Keep it to emulated pedals, stuff like studio reverbs etc.
  6. Use a separate post for each effect.
  7. Describe:
    • if it's mono or stereo
    • if it should before of after Amp/Cab
    • if it's in series or parallel
    • if it uses a modifier
    • the firmware version.
  8. Name the source if you copied the effect from someone.
P.S. Don't forget Javajunkie's excellent effect emulations:

Hi Yek! one question about the old thread for the ultra

Are the Attachments still are available for download? ...hope so to try them with my ultra :D
 
Fulltone OCD drive block. Settings were ported from the block in the previous Mama threads.
(Originally this block came from Voes, who made a series of youtube vids with
many different drive pedal emulations.)
Placement is series before amp offcourse.

Edit: FW 12.03(beta 4)

I have GOT to try this!
This would be my first time downloading any blocks, or anything for that matter, for my Axe II XL, I'm on FW 14.xx, will I have compatibility issues?

Hi there,

does anyone know if it's possible to emulate Electro Harmonix's h.o.g.? The freez-gliss effect would be amazing to have in the Axe Fx...
 
Anyone get the Satisfaction riff sound using the Master Fuzz (and I assume, into a Tweed amp)?

Thanks.
 
Hi there!!!i can't import either the blk files or the syx files in to the axe edit, how I can hear the sounds and save them?? Have any ideas please?

Copy the block file into to effects folder on your hard drive in your laptop/pc.

Local Disk C:/Users/'Your Name'/Documents/Fractal Audio/Axe-Edit/Blocks

The effect will be in the Axe Edit when you select the Reverb block.
