Fractal and Helix Stadium presets

[JiveTurkey]

Messed around with the updated Matchless and stacked a couple delays and reverb

For whatever reason; this initially reminded me of the evil version of 'Don't Change'

Yeah I hear it :)

Yeah I hear it :)

1. I wish I could talk my bandmates into doing this song. I get why I can't; but I can still dream.
2. Limp Bizkit should have covered this one as is instead of removing all the energy. Missed opportunity.

Love that song. Sounds good.

Hey!

Did a capture of my Rockerverb MKIII 100 with the same settings as the Agora model in the preset.

Thoughts?

That’s sounds pretty damn good

Here are a couple Proxy direct amp captures for folks in Stadium land looking for Recto tones.

This is my late 90s Revision G Dual Rectifier loaded with EL34s, tube rectification, and bold. The EL34s give it a slightly different vibe than the standard Recto thing, but I dig it.

I've created 4 captures, a mid gain and high gain capture each for the orange (vintage) and red (modern) channels. The mid gain caps are for you guys wanting to boost tones without ending up with tons of saturation, might also appeal to you guys rocking single coils. The high gain caps bring more heat.

I left these UNBOOSTED so you can BYOB.

Those rip man!

I've wanted a good rectifier on the Helix for a while.

Thank you!

Anyone try a Stadium capture with a mic'd speaker cab? The amp only caps posted in this thread sound great and I'm curious how amp and cab ones sound.

They can sound fantastic.

Hi everyone,

This is just a home-made fuzz face but there are some pretty old lowish gain germaniums in there. I like it!

Four captures here - the names of them indicate where, on the dial, I'd put the volume and fuzz.

With this particular fuzz, any volume much below a 7 or 8 actually makes the whole thing quieter vs the input signal. Part of its charm! Three of the captures here are with the volume set all the way up with varying fuzz levels. Then the 8.5 / 6.5 setting is one that I rather like with the guitar I was using today (a Baum with fairly hot single coils).

Hope you like them - Proxy did a really good job of replicating this thing IMO so, if you're not fond of it, it's either my dialing in or you wouldn't like the original! I'd like to blame the process but it seems to work well, or at least it did on this home-brew box.

I've put it in front of a couple of the Agoura amps and really liked it (the new Orange and also the Marshall that I like and few other people seem to!) plus I tried it with the free captures of the Vox from @brianwahl - I had to delete a couple of the KoT to allow the DSP to run this capture up front but I really like it in front of that Vox too :)

Thanks for sharing these. I’m excited to check them out later, and hopefully grab a couple fuzz caps myself.

What were your findings in terms of cleanup?

I'm still playing around with it! The thing that is odd (and a good odd) is that the roll off *for this fuzz, I've only tried this one* isn't a million miles off.

To test it, I've got the fuzz up front of the stadium and I'm just stomping on that or playing the clone. The clone is a touch louder than the original - I've taken the post gain down by about 1dB but that might just be my ability to get the actual pedal set up 100% the same as yesterday!! This fuzz is a picky bugger - it's got the sun face dial on there and the controls have a very narrow sweet spot IMO - if you fart near the thing the sound changes fundamentally so the difference I'm hearing here is most likely that the settings I captured yesterday are a touch different from how I've got the actual pedal set up today!

On the 'everything on 10' settings, the original is still fuzzing a bit down to a volume of 2 on the guitar I'm using - it only cleans up completely right at the very end before the guitar cuts out. The clone behaves in almost exactly the same way which I didn't see coming. I've played around with the input impedance on the Stadium - it alters the sound (as you'd expect) and the response. In the case of this particular fuzz, it's taking it further away from the real thing.

On the more middling setting I captured, again the Stadium rolls off in a very similar way to the orginal. The taper isn't 100% the same as the original (Stadium rolls off slightly quicker) but once more that might be down to my inability to set everything exactly the same as yesterday.

However you cut it, I'm really pleased with Proxy so far :)

I was setting up a preset to have my MicrFreak on the second path so I could experiment with effects for it and threw an AC30 on the top path just as a place holder really as my plan was explore synth stuff and save it as a template.
The AC30 with the variety of boosts stole the show.
Try this and let me know if it sounds good or am I just in a good mood this morning.

(Bonus points if you plug a MicroFreak into return 1 and call up preset 160, that reverb on path 2 is just what it needed! )

The Clone distortion block is the first of the four in Gary W.'s post up above
