Yek's preset collection (Q9.04, Axe-Fx II XL)

[Helicoder]

Thanks Yek, I look forward to seeing them!

Hmm, weird. As far I know, the XL+ does not use up more CPU than the XL, in fact a little less.

I'll load up my latest presets this weekend. They use less CPU.

@Helicoder , I updated the files.

 

[Helicoder]

Thank-you!

Just grabbed them and the CPU usage warnings and crackling seem to have gone away.

Appreciate your help!

@Helicoder , I updated the files.

 

[GeeJee]

Yes, indeed, I've fixed that now.

Thanks Yek.

The Presets in Link 2 (All Sounds - no global blocks) still have the same problem.

Thanks so much Yek. For your song presets, do you have a list that spells out the whole song name? For some of them, I'm not sure what song it is. Thanks!!

 

[yek]

Sure, tell me which ones.

This week's rig. Expanded for the occasion with a FreqOut, BodyRez for acoustic and MXR Talkbox.

That, Yek, is what I call 'Prepared for every eventuality.'

Not alot of real estate to jump around tho.

How's the BodyRez working our for you? Is it doing anything you couldn't duplicate in the Axe?

True. Sideman position in a 11-piece project band.... It was a large stage, but all the room went to the singers.

I have a great preset for my acoustic, but the Body Rez still adds "something" I like (EQ + anti-feedback + compression). I like it a lot.

I guess that Matt or another wizard can emulate it, but I don't even bother: it's a 1-knob simple device. And I don't bring my acoustic that often to gigs.

The FreqOut though can be easily replaced with Simeon's Feedback Simulator preset.

It's hard to beat a one-knob solution.

BTW, presets in OP have been updated.

For a gig this weekend I needed a 2nd rig, for a couple of other guitar players.

Bought a EHX Magnum 44 to drive my Port City x12.
Connected my Tech 12 Character British (for overdrive) and my Polytune 2.

Sounded great. And super portable.

I really like the EHX pedal. The 44 doesn’t brown out as quickly as the 22. I’m using it with a 50’s Bell and Howell 1 x 12” Alnico projector cabinet. It sounds delicious

How do you run the voicebox with your axefx or do you a/b it and run it separately into the pa

She's not very adventurous, is she?

Let's hear it for this thread! Three years of generous, thoughtful contributions by @yek. Great presets, great information and background. Continuously updated. All done for the pleasure of helping people.

really valuable literature,

it's so cool to have all this informations in one place!

especially if you only know two or three of all the amps in this beautiful black box!

(same thing for the drive's book!)

Thank you very much for this tremendous job!
