TONE MATCH Gen2 PATCHES, CAPTURES, AND PROFILES OF OUR ’95 MESA BOOGIE DUAL RECTIFIER (REV. G)
For these patches, we’ve captured a ’95 Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier 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 Dual Rectifier has become an iconic amplifier in the hard rock and metal genre of music. It is capable of huge rhythm and lead tones, and has been used on countless well known recordings and live tours. It is also a very versatile amplifier, capable of beautiful clean tones, as well as both vintage and modern voiced higher gain tones.
We’ve captured and tone matched the amp through a Mesa Boogie 4×12 Slant cab loaded with V30’s using a Royer 121 and Shure SM57 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.
INDIVIDUAL UNIT DEAILS
Line 6 Patches available for Helix (floor, LT, and Native), HX Stomp (including Stomp XL), and POD Go.
This download includes patches for Helix, HX Stomp, and POD Go with options for both single coils and humbuckers. Please make sure to import the appropriate patch for your hardware – they are not interchangeable.
NOTE: The HX Stomp and POD Go folders include ‘FX” patches. These patches include the additional effects blocks from the full Helix patch.
SIGNAL FLOW AND EFFECTS
- Input
- Compressor
- Drives/Boost
- Volume
- Amp
- User Cab
- Modulation
- Delay
- Reverb
- Output
The HX Stomp and POD Go patches cannot fit all the effects into a single patch. For those platforms, we include the amp and essential effects in the main patches, and then we include the additional effects blocks in the ‘FX’ patches. Feel free to mix and match the additional ‘FX’ blocks into the main patches to suite your needs.
AMP CHANNEL SWITCH
We’ve set a button on the Helix and HX Stomp to swap between the Clean and Dirty (Orange Modern) amp blocks. This emulates switching between the clean and orange channels on the amp.
SNAPSHOTS
- Snapshot 1: RHY WET. Base Rhythm (Orange channel) tone with reverb and delay
- Snapshot 2: RHY DRY. Rhythm tone dry
- Snapshot 3: RHY CHOR. Rhythm tone with chorus
- Snapshot 4: SOLO. Lead tone
- Snapshot 5: CLEAN. Clean tone
- Snapshot 6: AMBIENT. Clean tone with big verb and delay
- Snapshot 7: AMBI CHOR: Ambient clean tone with chorus

TONEX AMP CAPTURE PRESETS – Compatible with the Tonex/Amplitube Software and the TONEX pedals
The tone model captures increase through the entire gain range of the amp for both all channels (Clean, Orange and Red)
The Tone Model presets 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.
QUAD CORTEX CAPTURES
For Quad Cortex, we have captured the amp through its entire gain range of the amp for both all channels (Clean, Orange, Red)
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.
ALL-IN-ONE PRESETS
Also included are gig-ready (Sunday morning ready, to be more precise) all in one presets utilizing captures of this amp and our drive pedals. We’ve included separate presets for both single coil quipped and humbucker equipped guitars. You can use these presets in both Scene and Stomp mode, and they cover a ton of sonic territory.
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:
- 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 (WorshipTutorials) will follow you on the app.
- Follow ‘WorshipTutorials’ 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Fractal Presets available for Axe-FX III, FM3, and FM9
This download includes patches for Axe-FX III, FM3, and FM9 with options for both single coils and humbuckers. Please make sure to import the appropriate patch for your hardware – they are not interchangeable.
NOTE: The FM3 folder includes an ‘FX” patch. This patch includes the additional effects blocks from the full Axe-FX and FM9 patches. Feel free to substitute any of these effects blocks into the main patch to suite your needs.
SIGNAL FLOW AND EFFECTS
- Input
- Compressor
- Drives/Boost
- Volume
- Amp
- User Cab
- Modulation
- Delay
- Reverb
- Output
The FM3 presets cannot fit all the effects into a single patch. For that platform, we include the amp and essential effects in the main presets, and then we include the additional effects blocks in the ‘FX’ preset. Feel free to mix and match the additional ‘FX’ blocks into the main patches to suite your needs.
BLOCK CHANNELS
For each effect block, we set up all four channels to give you as many options as possible for each individual effect types. For example, in the Compressor block, there are four different types of compression. For drives, we use all available channels in each drive block to get different overdrive flavors. Please experiment with the channels in all the different blocks to find your favorites. Typically we use our favorites in Channel A.
The exceptions to this are usually the amp and cab blocks – for those we usually only set up Channel A.
AMP CHANNEL SWITCH
We’ve set a button on the on the FC controllers to swap channels in the amp block between the dirty (Orange Modern) and clean channels. This emulates switching between the clean and lead channels on the amp itself.
