Plate (Line 6® Original)

Plate, the Helix model of a Line 6® Original

Based on a studio Plate reverb. Similar to the spring, in its metallic resonant quality. Plate reverbs consisted of a thin metal sheet suspended inside a box.

This reverb is well-liked because it can add a "3D" effect to your tone.

Seriously WTF

I accidentally created this pitch-shifting, time bending monster while working on a Shiva patch.

Shiva

A nice mid-gain tone. Step on the Deranged Master for a dive into thrashier territory.

Home 1

This is my default preset for my 6 String guitars these days. Litigator handling Clean and mid-gain, and Badonk handling mid gain to high gain. 4 Snaps -- Litigator Clean, Litigator Drive, Badonk Green, and Badonk Red. FS2 activates a faux Organ sound (sounds great with snapshot 2), Stomps sprinkled in for compression, Fuzz, and time-based effects.

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.

Mick Mars

A Mick Mars/Mötley Crüe tone that is more of what he has been doing from Dr. Feelgood on. Using a Digitech Drop for the whole step drop and a 2010 EVH MIJ Wolfgang Special.

Placate

This is my main church preset. This uses the Placater Clean and Placater Dirty models to provide four snapshots of clean to hi-gain tone. Two additional snapshots are for swells and ambient tones. The preset uses an IR (OwnHammer 212 VC30 BLU-93 OH1-07) but replace with the default Placater cabinet and should be about the same. Dialed in with a PRS S2 Single Cut (humbuckers) w/ input pad on.

Downtown Fullerton

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

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.
