3P DWEAVR – Tone Match Gen2 Presets and Captures

Description

TONE MATCH Gen2 PATCHES, CAPTURES, AND PROFILES OF OUR 3RD POWER DREAM WEAVER

For these patches, we’ve captured a 3rd Power Dream Weaver amplifier. The result is a set of presets and captures that sound exactly like our amp, and the microphones, preamps, and EQ chains that we use to record it.

The Dream Weaver combines classic American (Fender) and classic British (Marshall)  circuits. On the American side, there is a a Blonde (Bassman) and Tweedn (Deluxe) setting, and on the British side there are two different Plexi options (Plexi, and Plexi Glow, which is a more aggressive tone). Every channel of this amp sounds incredible, making it an extremely versatile amplifier. The amp is in a 1×12 combo version with a Celestion Alnico Gold speaker.

We’ve captured and tone-matched the Tweed, Blonde, Plexi, and Plexi Glow channels. We have also captured the Plexi channels through multiple cabs – the stock 1×12 cab with the Gold, and through a Marshall 4×12 cab.

We mic’d the cabs with a Royer 121 and Earthworks SR25 through a stereo Neve 1073 preamp.

TONE MATCH (Gen 2) PATCHES (Applies to Line 6 and Fractal presets)

These are part of our ‘Tone Match’ line of patches. To create these patches, we make custom IR’s that ‘match’ the HX and Fractal amp models to our real-world amp. The result is the Line 6 and Fractal units sound almost exactly like our actual amplifiers.

The ‘Gen2’ indicates a new process we’ve used when Tone Matching our amplifiers that takes more of the amplifier’s cab and speaker into account, resulting in a more accurate tone match impulse response.

PRESETS INFO

(Applies to Line 6 HX, Fractal, Quad Cortex, and Headrush units)

The pack includes fully featured presets designed for both single coil and humbucker equipped guitars. We have delivered three sets of presets, each with Single Coil and Humbucker Voicings.

• Plexi: This set of presets was created from the ‘Plexi’ voice of the amplifier, through the Marshall 1982B JH 4×12 cab.
• Tweed: This set of presets emulates the American Tweed voice
• Blonde: This set of presets emulates the American Blonde voice, which is modeled after an early-60’s Blonde Bassman

SNAPSHOTS/SCENES

Our presets include Snapshots for instant access to a wide variety of tones, including clean sounds, ambient tones, driven, lead, and high gain sounds, and modulated tones.

NOTES:

• The HX Stomp, POD Go, and FM3 folders include ‘FX” presets. These presets include the additional effects blocks from the full Helix/Axe-FX versions. Because these units have signal flow and DSP limitations, they are not as fully featured as the flagship units.
• The HX Stomp presets do not include Snapshots.

CAPTURES & PROFILES

(Applies to TONEX, Quad Cortex, and Kemper units)

The captures increase through the entire gain range of the amp for both all available channels. Here are the captures and cab details:

• American – Blonde: The Blonde voicing through the stock 1×12 cab
• American – Tweed: The Tweed voicing through the stock 1×12 cab
• Blended: American and Plexi channels jumped through the stock 1×12 cab
• British Plexi: Plexi voicing through the stock 1×12 cab
• British Plexi M: Plexi voicing through the Marshall 4×12 cab
• British Plexi Glow: Plexi ‘Orange Glow’ voicing through the stock 1×12 cab
• British Plexi Glow M: Plexi ‘Orange Glow’ voicing through the Marshall 4×12 cab

The captures are numbered, and the number corresponds to the level of gain in the tone model. Lower numbers equal lower gain, and higher numbers equal higher gain. Typically a ‘2’ or ‘3’ is the ‘edge of breakup’, and is the perfect option to use with pedals

You get a total of 25 captures

QUAD/NANO CORTEX – HOW DO YOU GET THE CAPTURES?

When you place your order, we will need to manually send you the captures through the ‘Cortex Cloud’ app by Neural DSP, available for both iOS and Android devices. First, you need to have the app installed and you must have an account through the app (go here to create an account and access the app).

This is how we will send you the captures:

1. Please include your Cortex Cloud app username in the ‘Notes’ field when checking out. If you do not include this, we cannot send you the captures. After we receive your order, we (SignalTheory) will follow you on the app.
2. Follow ‘SignalTheory’ on the Cortex Cloud app. This will make us ‘friends’ through the app :). If you are not following us, we cannot send you the captures.
3. After we receive your order, and we ‘Friends’ on the app, we will send you the captures through the app. We bundle the captures into presets, so you will receive one (or more) presets that include all the captures. You will find the captures in the ‘Shared with me’ section on your Quad Cortex.
4. Please allow up to 5 business days for us to send you the captures. Most orders will be fulfilled within two business days or less. This fulfillment process must happen manually – we will do our best to get you the files quickly. Once the NDSP marketplace opens, this process may change.
