  • HI Leon, I'm on 8.01 on the FM9–do I need 8.02? I load your bundle via import on there FM9 edit and choose the areas where I save the preset and cab but the preset doesn't appear or load–any ideas?

  • Thank your for opening my eyes to the Mark IV. I was so hung up on the IIC++, I hadn't given the IV a chance,. Now it is a favorite.

  • Thank you so much for this video. I finally found THE TONE I was looking for. For whatever reason, Mark series amps never gel with me (even with your settings), so I swapped the amp block with SLO 100 Lead (my fav amp), and cab block with my own DynaCab settings, but copied your preset layout, routing, effects blocks settings etc. I already had a rhythm tone I was happy with. But the DI clean and the "fat" switch on the amp block for lead tone…. were both revelations to me. So now I finally have the 3 core sounds (clean + rhythm + lead tones) perfected AND all in one preset. So good.

  • Awesome Preset. Thank you for the bundle. One quick question; how does the filter block off, stop the compressor and chorus from sounding- is it because it is in parallel?

  • Leon, my friend, you may have been over-exposed to extremely loud amps and stages, all your presets sound incredibly bright/piercing. Maybe it’s just me. Thanks for sharing the preset!

  • Are the compressor and chorus active on scenes 1 and 2 as well, or just for the clean scene 3?

  • Sounds great!
    Great tribute for a legend

    The preamp parameters in the cab block are awesome .
    Didn't you do Akira Takasaki /Loudness video with the preamp settings with the saturation a while back ?
