Re: The right sound for certain songs

Over the last month i made some new presets and added them just now to my tone collection at the beginning of this thread.
I also added the Links, that will bring you directly to the right preset in the tonecloud.

Re: Al Dimeola Tone

Sorry, I have to pass Al di Meola. Jazz is unfortunately not my thing, but rock and blues. I just listened to this song and I think I hear a bit of a similarity in tone in some places as in some of the Santana songs, but much brighter and more open and less dull and muddy. Start with the Santana pre...

Re: The right sound for certain songs

Same here strat with bridge PU.

Strange thing really, but the volume of the guitar can be the main reason. Big difference on a Strat between 5 and 7/8.

If you play the presets again with the guitar volume on 7 or 8, the difference should be better to hear.

Re: The right sound for certain songs

Ciao Samuele, You're absulutely right. Your two sound examples are very close and mine are sounding different. Yes, another guitar, pickup, Volume, Smartphone instead garageband etc. this all make a difference, of course. But here i cannot really recognice my own preset and i think that our playing ...

Re: The right sound for certain songs

At guitarbackingtrack.com or on youtube. Creating Presets with the Spark app is easy. But if you want it to sound reasonable, there are a few things to consider. In general, I can say the following for the Spark app's signal chain. From left to right: Noisegate only when necessary. But be careful wi...

Re: The right sound for certain songs

Recording on the Ipad is easy.
USB cable from the Spark to lightning into the IPad.
And then with Garageband is the easiest way for only audio recording.

Re: The right sound for certain songs

I also have my problems with the English language. :x But now I think I have understood what you could mean. The amps from PG are based on the original, some more some less. If Santana would mostly play boogies now, it makes sense to start with this when creating a sound. But that doesn't always wor...
