DH BETHEL - FM9

Demo video HERE

Walkthrough of how to import and use the included custom FM9 layout HERE

Designed for the all-in Fractal user, DH BETHEL is my signature FM9 preset which is based on my full pedalboard and stereo amp rig I use when recording and touring with Bethel Music (see my rig rundown HERE). This download includes two IR's and 8 presets, as well as a custom Layout file to optimize access to Presets, Scenes, and Effects while keeping the Tap/Tuner option on every Scene/FX layout. Every preset contains Per-Preset overrides for unique preset switching and functions. Use an external expression pedal for volume (PDL1 input). Every block includes alternate dialed-in effects & settings on channels A B C & D for many tonal options. Please see my demo/walkthrough of this preset on Youtube for a complete demo and breakdown of the preset functions, sounds, and layout. 

 

UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE: Ensure all of your firmware & software is up to date across all of your devices. If your firmware and/or software is not up to date you may encounter an error when importing this patch onto your device. See the Release Notes tab for recommended minimum firmware/software versions required. 

 

PREMIUM IMPULSE RESPONSES INCLUDED!

The amps in this patch are based on my UK-made AC30/6 TB with Greenbacks and Fender Prosonic with a Fender Custom Shop G10V. Impulse Responses of these exact speakers from my meticulously engineered IR library are included to ensure the most accurate tone achievable. Included IRs:

• UK-Made Greenback from my AC30/6 TB mic'd with a Shure 545 (mic position 3 - see my IR page for details)
• G10V Fender Custom Shop speaker from my Prosonic mic'd with a Shure 545 (mic position 3 - see my IR page for details)

The Greenback goes in slot 1 of the Cab Block and the G10V goes in slot 2 of the Cab Block.

PICKUPS & GUITAR

All presets include two versions: one dialed-in for humbuckers (HB) and one for single-coil (SC) pickups. The main difference is some small EQ tweaks on the post-amp parametric EQ block as well as the EQ on the Drive block. It is recommended to test out both presets and see which one suits your tastes and guitar better. Feel free to save a copy of the preset and experiment with the EQ, or any other elements of the patch to tune it as you please.
