PRESETS LIST
DoubleHammer - Heavily distorted tone, with separated bass and treble processing patches. Enable or disable additional boost for even more top-end grind.
Trinity - Aggressive and cutting tone that can be pushed even further with FET Boost. Separated top and low end processing ensures great clarity of tone.
NastyM - A (slightly) more classic distorted tone. As the name suggest - it's nasty! Two completely different "Green" and "Red" tones to choose from - with just one footswitch press.
OnTheRocks - Classic Ampeg-like tone, that bites hard if you want it to. Enable the pitch-shifter to add additional octave. Set the position with Quick Access Parameter to 0 or 100 to switch from octave up and down.
Micro7K - Modern tone that already became a classic. Disable the overdrive to get a slightly pushed clean tone. Try pressing the CTRL footswitch to explore other galaxies :)
Overkill - Overdrive pushing an Orange AD200B pre-amp, which drives an Aguilar Tone Hammer pre-amp, which feeds a 6550 valve power amp... That shouldn't work... Yet it works! Disable the initial overdrive for another variation.
SteelHammer - Bass and top-end should be processed in parallel for best results. What helps to filter out some of the bottom-end and create some grinding treble attack? Fortin Grind! Wait... That's a guitar pedal. Disable it if you would like to get cleaner tone and experiment with additional EQ which can open the tone even more.
ForbiddenOne - This shouldn't have happened, yet - here it is. Completely distorted tone that can tear down walls. It's all thanks to a classic Marshall pedal. You can shape the tone with different switchable EQ pedals... But you can not disable the distortion.

V2 Update is here!
From now on this preset pack is also compatible with Ampero II Stage. For each preset three scenes have been created. First scene is always the "default" and balanced tone while the second is less gritty and the third scene is suitable for cases that need even more growl that the default scene provides. The only odd case is the "Micro7K" preset in which the third scene is used for space exploration ;) For legacy firmware users or for musicans that would rather keep the old way of "stompbox" type effects switching - the old presets are still preserved in this pack. However - please keep in mind that after importing these to the Ampero II Stage or Stomp with firmware version of 2.0.0 or above it might be necessary to make some slight adjustments as every firmware update might affect the legacy preset tone.
