Presets pack for Axe-Fx II MKI/II, XL/XL+ and Quantum firmware 7.02 and up
(older firmware not supported)
EDIT 19th April 2019 : ARES 1.03 versions of the presets added.
This is a collection of not less than 90 presets, from 88 different amp models.
Each presets has 5 scenes with various amount of gain, from clean (scene 1) to high gain lead (scene 5)
They will work with a variety of guitars but are optimized for superstrats with a humbucker in bridge and single coils. I made sure that the sound stays clean with bridge humbuckers (DiMarzio The Breed and Norton, Bare Knuckle Holydiver) on scene 1, even with amp models made for high gain.
I used an Ibanez RG to tweak them and plays with position 4 of the pickup selector (middle single coil pickup + splitted bridge humbucker) for the first three scenes, and the bridge humbucker for scenes 4 and 5.
These presets uses mostly stock cabs, but also 16 user cabs, which I made from free sources and various techniques like tone matching. All those cabs are included and must be installed at the user spots indicated by their names (see video, link below).
Here’s my user cabs list: Fremen_user_cabs_(02.04.2017)
A few are my personal mixes of cabs from Valhallir.at, who gave me permission to share them with my presets. Check their cabs here : http://valhallir.at/en/
Here’s a small “making of” video:
