Same Power

I put this together for the song Same Power by Jeremy Camp, but I started playing around with it with the Minotaur and Adriatic Delay turned off, and it's just a really nice lead tone with lots of potential tonal variation. It sounds good with either neck or bridge pickups (or both), and responds well to rolling back the volume and tone knobs.

God Tone with Looper

Incredible clean and dirty tones in one patch with lots of different applications.Clean Mark amp with 2 stages of Overdrive - a Parametric EQ pushed the amp into overdrive, and a Timmy pedal pushes it out into full distortion. No snapshots, I find the pedal assignments can do the job.

Heretick Lead

My current personal metal lead sound, based on the Line 6 Fatality. Smooth and buttery with a huge ambiance. No cab modeling, since I use my Pod Go into a power amp into a Vintage 30 equipped cab.

Try this tone with a strat, and roll back on your volume just a bit. Sounds nice.

Heretick Riffs

My current personal metal riffing sound, based on the Line 6 Fatality. Tight and percussive, but in a thrashy way. No cab modeling, since I use my Pod Go into a power amp into a Vintage 30 equipped cab.

Vibrolux Kitchen Sink

The preset features a clean Vibrolux with two gain options; the EQ is set in front of the amp with a boost and there is a Kinky Boost between the amp and cab with a boost. It also has a transistor tape delay, chorus, and reverb - season to taste. I use this with my single coil guitars, but it should work fine with humbuckers. It's a sort of generic, catch-all preset.

MM Set HD K2 Dha

This is full set with 4 snapshots: 1. Clean Chorus, 2. Overdrive (bluesy), 3. Mid Gain and 4. High Gain which can cover a lot. Snapshots 2-3 can be used either as rhythm (without delay or/and chorus) and lead tones. All snapshots are aimed to reproduce tube amp, with sufficient tone definition and to cut through the mix. The tone  is made for PAF pickups (7.5 K neck and 11 K bridge), but tested (and sounds good) on high resistance,  "hot" pups as well (Ibanez Quantum).
