To get SRV is "easy" (FW 20.04) At least I think it is....

[musicman0001]

From AXE FX 2 onwards I have tried many presets to get certain Stevie Ray Vaughan sounds. And although the right pickup's and guitar and strings will be definitely a factor with the latest itterations of FW20X I tried it myself again. But actually it's not that hard to get this sound in the ballpark of the songs you wanna play.

I made a preset with 3 different amps: 6G4 super, Vibrato Verb AA and Prince Tone 5F2 where I have set different bright settings and different effects. Scenes are different amps, there is no SONG preset or scene. Most songs should be feasible, except with the rotary. I did not include the rotary. Due to possible CPU limitations.

NOTES:

• If it's NOT loud enough or not matching your VOLUME please try AMP LEVEL first then OUTPUT 1 BLOCK level
• As the IR has quite some highs(its not a dark IR)
  • try low and high cut on the CAB block
  • or lower presence cq tone cq highcut in the AMP
• To be sure slightly change your PU's so they are not to harsh in the highs or too low in the bass as I matched everything it with my speakers and guitars and it works great when matched in the mix with Spotify songs of SRV
• You could also delete one DRIVE and have the BOOST in the AMP set on T808 when needed
• For some solo's you need to have BOTH 808 on
• Studio Compressor at the end is set to 4 or 5 which matched my setup, but try lower or higher settings depending on your PU's
• outside NL, maybe set AC back to 60 cycles
• It's NOT tested at GIG or FOH, only HOME and MF10 FRFR Stereo setup.
  • With MF10 I needed to lower some bass (low cut), but maybe with latest FW that's not even needed anymore
• The REVERB is also important for the sound. I forgot to set it to a lower % as 20% is on MY setup too much reverb and lower it to either 10 or sometimes even 5%.

If you can not load, please let me know as I have a TURBO. Then I will delete some of the drives or other FX.

Found old JBL E130 SM57 C that was previously AXE FX 2 given by Tyler. If you want I can also make (fractool) FM3, FM9 preset from tylers old preset. BTW: Leon Todd made some good IR's as well which are less bright. So check them out as well on AXE Change.

There is also V30 160 version (and also V30 sm57). As I know that the version I included in my preset is working in my HOME environment and MF10 FRFR. But on your end this IR can be quite different in the highs. Just some tips



I like it combined with V30 57 mic
