Hard Rock Styles multi preset for the Fractal Audio Axe-FX III
This preset offers a great variety of tones for Hard Rock!
It includes three iconic amps, a Marshall Silver Jubilee, a Friedman Smallbox and a Peavey 6505+ to cover multiple sonic nuances.
Two custom IRs (impulse responses) are included in order to have a great and authentic speaker cab tone. One is based on the Friedman 412/15 Checkered 2x12/2x15 and the other on the Mesa Boogie Recto 4x12 Standard.
There are also multiple effects such as wah, flanger, overdrive, chorus, delay and reverb; each of them are tweaked to offer great sounds! There are variations of these effects, just try changes from A to D in each effect block.
Scene 1 - Hot Crunch. Based on the Silver Jubilee, it is a great crunch sound.
Scene 2 - Hotter Than Hell. A Friedman Smallbox with a tape distortion in front of it and a reverb! It's hot!
Scene 3 - Loud an Punchy. Based on the Peavey 6505+, it is a great modern overdriven sound. Try to boost it with the drive block and you have a great lead tone too!
Scene 4 - Crackling and Fun. Another Silver Jubilee tone but with less gain; it's like an "old school" hard rock tone.
Scene 5 - Lead Sound A. An '80 style lead sound with chorus.
Scene 6 - Lead Sound B. A modern lead sound based on the Peavey 6505+.
This preset is ear tweaked using multiple audio listening gear (pro headphones, in-ear monitors, pro studio monitor, frfr cabs and PA).
You can use this preset through a DI, FOH, or through a FRFR speaker.
You can run it through a guitar amp/combo return too by switching off power amp and cab modeling from "global setting".
