5150 Crunch Lead Wah
Super fun 5150 patch... not for chugging but is a great hard rock patch. It has 3 snapshots... 1. Rhythm 2. Lead 3. Lead with auto wah. This was made with my PowerCab Plus using a York Audio IR so you will need to keep that in mind. Enjoy!!!

Mayer with Boost and Mood
Here's a clean preset I made with 3 snapshots: 1. Mayer type clean 2. Clean with boost 3. Ambient Clean I used my PC+ so you will need to use an IR. Enjoy!

James Valentine - Maroon 5
Upon learning of the guitar rig for James Valentine of Maroon 5, I've put together this little patch. You can learn more about Valentine's rig at the Youtube link, but the core of his sound is:Tele style guitar + stereo clean ampsFor his live rig (covered in the video), he runs Suhr and Matchless amps. However, this patch is based on Divided by 13 9/15, as he mentioned most Maroon 5 recordings were done on such an amp. I recommend playing around with the Matchstick amps for an alternate flavor. A wah pedal is in the second block, but if an expression is not available, I recommend the Autofilter set to Low-Pass with sensitivity around 75% (depends on your guitar's output).

Hellbound Fender for Powercab
This tone is an attempt to capture the live tone of one of my favorite guitarists, Luis from Hellbound Hayride. It's a juicy, dirty Fender sound with some delay and reverb. The tone does not have a cab emulation in it, it uses the Powercab for that.Powercab SettingsSet the Powercab to the "Vintage" (Celestion Vintage 30) speaker emulation and turn it up!

The clean tone was inspired by a JHS video where he demonstrates a clean tone using a maxed out Fuzz Face. Yes. Let that sink in. Then I added progressively dirtier tones and set it up using command center for the HX Stomp footswitches.

Thrice Dustin Kensrue
These are a few settings that I think are close to Dustin Kensrue from Thrice's current setup. I've heard him say on Twitter that he likes using the Double Amp model and Minotaur and messing with gain settings and snapshots for different tones. I decided to use the Heir Apparent instead for a little more gain. SS1 is a cleanish, modulated tone, SS2 is probably the more used high-gain setting, and SS3 is a modulated sound a la the intro of the song Hurricane.

Brothers Osborne - Stay A Little Longer
This patch is inspired by the tone of The Brothers Osborne's "Stay A Little Longer." The preset is based on the Silvertone 1484 (aka Mail Order Twin), a documented feature of the John Osborne live rig. I also recommend trying this out with a Fender DRRI (US Deluxe Nrm), as this is a slightly cleaner take on the tone.

Epic Gain for Boss Katana 50
Use this patch by plugging straight into a Katana 50. Use the acoustic channel on the amp, and keep all Katana settings at noon, and adjust to taste. This patch uses the Line 6 Epic Helix model for a mid-heavy high gain metal tone thru your Katana.

Oh Ingrid
Derailed Ingrid patch, showing the Trainwreck amp model of the Helix. The Dhyana Drive is included, but not enabled by default. I have been making good use of the "Double Take" modulation effect, it adds a lot of body to the sound through headphones. If you're playing into a PA or direct recording, you may want to turn off this effect.You can hear various degrees of distortion in the Soundcloud demo - I didn't change anything except the attack of my pick.In the Soundcloud demo I am playing a Les Paul standard with a Burstbucker in the bridge.
