MARS 74x – Tone Match Gen2 Presets and Captures

Description

TONE MATCH Gen2 PATCHES, CAPTURES, AND PROFILES OF OUR MOJOTONE TMB 18W AMPLIFIER

For these patches, we’ve captured a Mojotone 18w TMB 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 Mojotone 18w TMB amp is a hand-wired clone of a vintage Marshall 18w amp with the addition of a more customizable tone stack. Our is in a 2×12 combo with Celestion Greenbacks.

We mic’d the cab 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.

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 channels.

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 8 captures

QUAD CORTEX

The captures and presets are available for free in the Cortex Cloud app. You’ll need to create an account and follow ‘WorshipTutorials’ to access the presets and captures (go here to create an account and access the app).
