Hi all, I have struggled with this since the AxeII, then the AX8, and now again with the AxeIII - what can be done for synth, strings, organ and keys types sounds - sounds you might need a keys player to emulate - and what is not achievable. It remains unclear to me.
For instance, some simple synth pad and even some deep octave pop synth seems readily achievable and I've played some - @simeon helped me with a patch for 'Hella Good' a while back and it was excellent. Most recently, I have asked about the sequenced synth in 'Hungry Like the Wolf' and Simeon and @Admin M@ (maybe even Cliff?) helped and it ended in a great result - I will post that one here for sharing. It's really quite great if you're in a 1-guitar band with no keys (both of my cover bands are this way and both want to often play songs that have some synth or keys or horns in it).
Here is my request as it eludes me - what is realistically achievable with the AxeIII and what requires another piece of gear like the Roland GR55 + GK3 pickup? I have tried those and am trying desperately to keep my rig simple....if anyone has good feedback or a list, please share. Others may have similar questions. I don't need synth or strings or horns every patch, but now and then I do and would LOVE to keep it within the Axe.
I've become decent at creating patches that emulate the original recording for cover bands, but I stink at anything outside of a clean or gain tone which is why I am researching. Thanks in advance!
PS - the attached patch is super cool live....credit to Simeon and Admin!!!! Scene 1= Verses. Scene 2 = Chorus (play single notes, low).
