i do it via scenes. I'll tell you why.
With scenes, each preset is a song, and each 'scene' is the intro verse, chorus, outro, solo, whatever it is within that song. Verses are usually quieter than choruses, solos are obviously boosted etc. So i'll have the verse be a -2 or -3db against the chorus, and the solo be a +2 or 3db for example. Not including the fact that some certain songs have effects in certain verses only and/or clean vs distorted and so on, so you're able to X/Y amps between scenes.
I have disabled sticky ANYTHING. The reason for this is, as dumb as this sounds, if i slip, or if i'm wearing heavy boots etc. And i step on the wrong switch at the wrong time or for too long...even worse, if your SINGER STEPS ON A SWITCH ON YOUR AX8 AS LONG AS THE HIGH NOTE HE'S SINGING! it's a nightmare to switch that back! Sad..but true..this has happened....
It is true though preset switching is faster and I have tried many times to make it work, haven't come up with a solution as of yet.
Thanks for this - I’m still thinking about using scenes for songs, though none of the songs we cover would need 8 unique sounds or levels, it makes it easy knowing each back was for one song, and many sounds could work for multiple tunes. If there is less of a gap in switching between scenes over presets, I’ll go with scenes since I noticed a delay gap switching between presets. I could also try amp X/Y switching if that’s faster. Lots of options!
