EDIT 9th April 2019 : ARES 1.03 versions of the presets added
(older firmware not supported)
This is my main pack for Axe-Fx II MKI/II, XL/XL+ and Quantum firmware 7.02 and up
It’s the presets I use live with my cover bands, or which I use just for fun. They’re all in my bank A, so there’s 128 presets here. They cover all the bases I need : clean, crunch, mid gain, high gain, blues fusion, special effects…
These presets will work with a variety of guitars but are optimized for superstrats with a humbucker in bridge and neck and a single coil in the middle. I used an Ibanez RG to tweak them and usually uses position 4 of the pickup selector (middle single coil pickup + splitted bridge humbucker) for the clean and crunch presets, and the bridge or neck humbuckers for mid to high gain. Updates for these presets, if necessary because of changes in the firmware, will always be free.
These presets uses 44 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/
EDIT 21 October : I updated the Pink Floyd presets, for firmware Quantum 10.01. Current owners of the pack just need to download the zip file again, the presets are in the “Bonus” folder.
Here’s a few videos. the synth pad beneath is also in the preset.
