WHY NOT?

[ARIBAI]

hey
since this subforum is almost dead
how about a little PRESET contest
(ALL amp sims allowed: GR, AT, Revalver, others...)


here are the parameters:

just upload a bank with 3 presets made by yourself .. obviously make that 3 presets the ones you are the MOST PROUD OF!!!!
(those presets can be completely original tones, or famous tones like U2 or TOOL or whatever...)

I´ve heard some mean sounding presets already posted, those can be submitted too (by its author)

so how about it? Ill post my bank with my best 3 presets tomorrow

note: at least 1 example clip must be posted!

suggestions accepted

[EasySleazy]

One suggestion. There should be one clip for each preset, because presets sound differently on each user's system. Also the clip should preferably be a single guitar track.

[ARIBAI]

that sounds pretty reasonable...
lets do it that way then, 1 clip for each preset!

since each preset sounds kinda different from setup to setup we should make a little intro on what kind of guitar, pickup and preamp we used.

cheers

[EasySleazy]

Sure thing!

les paul guitar---->DOD preamp pedal------>GR3
I used a Les Paul clone with humbuckers... all presets on bridge position
I kinda wanted to add my morello and brian may presets which I think are close but this ones are good and they are completely new so...
esnips doesnt do justice on em but you get the idea.. I recorded the clips on a single layer with GRs loop machine, no panning (centered)

Are impulse based presets allowed Aribai?

[ARIBAI]

sure ... any amp sim too

[patchwork]

the distortion for les paul sounds really cool! may i ask how you you tweaked the bi-fet preamp for that?

[ARIBAI]

the bi fet preamp is just a simple old stompbox from DOD
it only has 2 knobs

level knob= set around 8 o clock (just enough to avoid any clipping in the input level of GR3/ avoid red color on gr3 input led)
tone knob= almost to the max (very bright or high on the treble side)


glad you like it, try it on HI quality too

Doesn't a contest usually involve a prize to be won?

[guitarob]

I know this is probably a stupid question but should you post what impulses you used for each bank?

[ARIBAI]

no impulses there, all GR3 cabs

[eddbanger]

great sounds winning so far keep up the good work and great playing too thanks
