  11. Toggles between Plate and Cloud Reverb sounds (in conjunction with footswitch 5 this gives you a total of 4 instantly-accessible reverb “presets”

Scenes:

  1. Pedalboard - I recommend you spend most of your time on this scene and footswitch layout 8, unless you want to create scenes to fit your workflow

  2. Clean Dotted 8th

  3. Clean Stacked Delays - 8th note and dotted 8th note delays stacked

  4. Crunch Dotted 8th

  5. Church Lead - Use for most of your big leads

  6. Church Lead Bright - Use for big leads if you need to pop out in the mix a bit more or have a darker humbucker guitar

  7. Clean Chorus

  8. Ambient - several delays and a big reverb sound for ambient playing or volume swells

Setup Notes:

The input is set to Input 1, the output is set to output 1.

This preset is configured to work with the Fractal FC12 controller, but all the important gain staging will be present on the FC6 as well. I use footswitch 12 (the top right footswitch on the FC12) to toggle between Layouts 7 and 8. Layout 7 has all my scenes, plus a tap tempo / tuner switch, Layout 8 functions as my “pedalboard” in all my presets.

I have assigned FC 1 Pedal 1 to the “Volume” parameter on the “Volume/Pan 1” block for volume swells and muting yourself.

Mono users: This preset has a massive stereo image but is mono-compatible. In order to get the sound of both amps to FOH, in your global settings navigate to I/O > Audio Tab > “Output 1 Configuration” > Mode, and set it to “SUM L+R”. When running mono with SUM L+R, I recommend disabling the enhancer block.
