Jif Pedal Steel

This is a preset for Pedal Steel Guitar I created copying settings from a previous patch I put together using other hardware before purchasing a HX Stomp XL. I previously used 6 EQ channels on a 12 channel parametric EQ, in the HX patch I replicated the settings using 2 parametric blocks. The path in the HX is - Parametric - Parametric - Optical Trem - Jazz Rivet 120 - Celestion Vintage 30 IR - Multihead Delay - Ganymede Reverb. The Celestion Vintage 30 IR is a free download taster from Celestion and is available here - https://www.celestionplus.com/free-download/ I initially created this preset using a Strymon Bluesky Reverb, set up with a room reverb with modulation and connected into the Stomp using a FX send/return block, I have duplicated this as far as possible using the Ganymede Reverb in the HX, it sounds a bit different to the BlueSky, but it has it's own magic. I'll use this mainly in Ambient style recordings but it works well with other styles.

Mike Ness Tone

This is a very good aproximation of Mike Ness's Tone on the Social Distortion albums. The recipe is iconic - a dirt pedal into a Bassman head, then into Marshall cabinets. The sample clip was played on a legit Les Paul with P90 pickups - you need this to get the real deal.

Rock Bassman

I created this patch after listening to a cool pop punk, 50's inspired band at a local club. The guitar player had epic tone, using a Les Paul into a Bassman head going into a 2x12 fender cab.  I did my best to reproduce his tone, a very simple but hard hitting rock n roll tone.Play the neck pickup and reduce the volume a bit on the guitar, and you're in a nice blues sound as well.

Grammatico Brt

This is the same patch made by Jorge but for the HX Stomp, I used my app (https://sensationnel-gerard-26922.herokuapp.com/) to visualize the parameters and recreated the patch. I sounds really good.

Heavy Metal (Takin' a Ride) by Don Felder

This patch generates the beginning keyboard sound by using three 3-Note Generators, delay, overdrive and chorus as well as the verse delay using a momentary stomp footswitch. There are a couple ways to start the song. Check out the video at the bottom of this page.Here's how I do it.Start the Organ stomp (wait at least 10 seconds for minimum Attack time). You can change the Attack time of each 3-Note Generator for quicker intro.Have the drummer do a four beat count in. On 4, turn off the Organ (the delay will keep it ringing for another beat)Immediately step on the Verse Delay and on 1 of the next bar play the D->E chords and one chug on the open E chord.Release the Verse Delay (it will trail) and keep chugging.Repeat steps 4-5 for each bar.I put a 1-Switch Looper at the end  so you can record the main riff to solo over. If you do use it, I recommend using the Solo Dly for the first D->E so you have time to hit the looper, turn off the Solo Dly (it will trail) then use the Verse Delay for the rest of the rhythm.It uses the same Fulltone OCD and Deluxe Reverb as Felders rig rundown on YouTube. Enjoy.

Shimmering

A nice patch for fingerpicking and playing along with an acoustic guitar. Soundcloud demo recorded on a Les Paul with the bridge pickup. Might sound even better with single coils.

Twin Diana

Lovely clean Twin and Dhyana for some (or more) overdrive. Also trem and delay in front, and some boosts after the amp.

Dimed Tweed Les Paul

From Joost Assink: I had set myself the goal to master all the parts in the epic final solo of Hotel California in my downtime during this crisis. I found out there are 11 parts!! (6 electric guitars, 2 acoustic guitars, 1 bass part, the organ part and of course programming drums). Well, it took a little longer than expected. I recorded all electric guitars and the bass using line 6 helix into an Apollo X8. I recorded the acoustic guitars with a stereo set of Neumann KM184s and I mixed everything in the new Universal Audio Luna DAW. I used a custom patch based on the tweed amp with a custom IR for all the electric guitars and I use the standard Cali 1 bass preset for the bass guitar. For the solos, I enabled a tube screamer, and for the telecaster parts, I added the script mod phaser pedal. For the reggae rhythm, I enabled the Wah pedal in a fixed position and for the supporting electric guitar lines, I added a little bit of chorus. Here's a free link to the IR used in the Youtube video:
