Description

TONE MATCH PATCHES, CAPTURES, AND PROFILES OF VINTAGE 1964 VOX AC30 TOP BOOST

For these presets, we have captured our vintage 1964 Vox AC30 Top Boost amplifier. The result is set of presets and captures that sound exactly like our amp, and the microphones, preamps, and EQ chains that we use to record it.

Our ’64 AC30 might look a bit beat up, but it sounds absolutely beautiful. This amp is simply legendary – Vox’s of this era have been and continue to be used by some of the most famous guitar players of all time, including The Beatles, The Edge (of U2), and Brian May (of Queen). Our has the original Alnico Silver speakers, and it is one of the best amps we’ve ever heard.

We’ve captured both the Normal and Brilliant channels. The Brilliant channel is bright and has the classic Vox chime, and the normal channel is warmer.

We’ve captured the amp with a Royer 121 and Earthworks SR25 through a stereo Neve 1073 preamp.

Line 6 Patches available for Helix (floor, LT, and Native), HX Stomp (including Stomp XL), and POD Go.

The pack includes 2 patches (each with SC and HB options). We’ve tone-matched both channels of this amplifier – the ‘Br’ patches are the Brilliant channel, and the ‘Nrm’ patches are the Normal channel.

  • 64 AC30 Br/Nr WT SC – These patches are meant for guitars with single coils.
  • 64 AC30 Br/Nr WT HB – These patches are meant for guitars with humbuckers.
  • NOTE: The HX Stomp, POD Go, and FM3 folders include ‘FX” patches. These patches include the additional effects blocks from the full Helix/AXE-FX III patches.
