MARS AFD – Tone Match Gen2 Presets and Captures

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.

CAPTURE LABELS:

• M = Marshall 1982B Cab
• SJ = Marshall 2551 AV Silver Jubilee Cab
• Dir = Direct capture (you’ll need to add an IR to these)
• ‘Slash’ = the amp was dialed in using Slash’s live settings
• Lo = Low input

NUMBERS

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.

CAPTURE LABELS:

• M = Marshall 1982B Cab
• SJ = Marshall 2551 AV Silver Jubilee Cab
• Dir = Direct capture (you’ll need to add an IR to these)
• ‘Slash’ = the amp was dialed in using Slash’s live settings
• Lo = Low input

NUMBERS

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.

ALL-IN-ONE PRESETS

• MARS AFD (M) TM2 – This patch was made using the Marshall 1982B 4×12 Cab
• MARS AFD (SJ) TM2 – This patch was made using the Marshall Silver Jubilee 4×12 Cab
• AFD PDub SC/HB (HELIX/HX STOMP ONLY) – These presets feature a clean and dirty amp with the ability to switch between them.

M PRESET: We captured and tone matched the amp through a Marshall 1982B JH cab with Celestion G12C speakers. This cab is the warmer of the two options.

SJ PRESET: This includes the Silver Jubilee 4×12 cab, and it slightly brighter and more aggressive sounding. They both sound great, but this one sounds a bit more like Slash.

PDUB PRESETS: These presets feature at JTM45 amp block set clean and the AFD100 settings for the rhythm and lead tones.  We’ve given you a foot switch that allows you to switch between the amp blocks. This lets you go from a clean tone to an aggressive rhythm tone. These presets have more options for clean tones, and are more suited for styles of music that need a wider variety of gain staging (like Praise and Worship, aka ‘PDub’).

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 (WorshipTutorials) will follow you on the app.
2. 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.
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.

PDUB PRESETS: These presets feature at JTM45 amp block set clean and the AFD100 settings for the rhythm and lead tones.  We’ve given you a foot switch that allows you to switch between the amp channels. This lets you go from a clean tone to an aggressive rhythm tone. These presets have more options for clean tones, and are more suited for styles of music that need a wider variety of gain staging (like Praise and Worship, aka ‘PDub’).

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.

SCENES

We’ve included scenes that allow you to access preset sounds with the press of a single button. These include clean to lead type tones, as well as modulated and ambient tones.
