Good tones with Gearbox

[schismatic]

I see a lot of really nice tones around here with the Podxt, but I'm wondering if some people have got some nice tones for Gearbox. I own a Toneport UX2 and I've got the metal pack for the Gearbox so I have access to a load of amp sims of stuff like the 5150, Dual Rect., Diesel VH4 etc. Anybody found any good tones with these that they could share, or good tones that layer together well? Also anybody who's managed to get something decent using impulses rather than Line 6's cab sims would be interesting too. Any examples of Toneport in use??

i do have a preset which i like very much. is made with the 5150.
here is the link: http://www.hatchery-band.de/upload/img/5151 Rythm.gpt
and a mp3 recording (panned centered, doubled, no fx): http://www.hatchery-band.de/upload/img/5150 rhythm.mp3

feel free to us it if u like it. please drop me a line and rate it.

i also made two hole songs with the toneport and gearbox (also drum recordings). the drums could be a lot better, but with the toneport you can only record 2 tracks at the same time. you'll find them here: http://www.hatchery-band.de/neu/download/counter/count.php?id=trail and here: http://www.hatchery-band.de/neu/download/counter/count.php?id=xmas

lol

Dude most pod tones load into gearbox

and if they don't they tell you whats missing.

 

[schismatic]

yeah I realise that they load into gearbox, but I'm not really sure if they sound similar. I wonder if anyone could A/B compare similar tones, would be interesting definitely.

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

Ah ok.

Dunno, suppose someone with a pod would have to have identicle setups. Then just record and AB that stuff.

If you check the songs in my signature you'll be listening to non-processed takes of Toneport UX1

Listened to the first one. It's pretty dope for a UX1!

All clips in my sigs are GuitarPort/Gearbox > RiffWorks.

Thanks!

This song has a very warm tone, it's the Dual Recto simulation.

Could you possibly post your patch? I've been trying to get my GP to sound decent but have been having a lot of trouble

 

[Erik Monsonis]

Of course

Thats pretty interesting, would have never thought to put technoish drums with metal riffs!

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

well, not sure if it is good tones, but I did it with toneport ux2. the sample shows 3 different guitar patches (doubletracked and hardpanned).

Thats pretty good IMO, surprised that you got the bass shit to sound that good. IMO gearbox bass sucks models suck.

Dandelium that sounded very good man, i'm gonna try that patch later

whitedamp i liked yours a lot too...any chance you could post any of your patches up?

BTW...here's a clip i did using my ux1 & gearbox, using the jcm800 and dual recto models, can't remember what i used for bass but i'll post a link to my patches as well

Thanks! I've done a couple now:

Eureka Eight

pulse

Champloo! (Gesundheit!)

& I'm working on more. I've heard a small amount of it out there, but not very much, so it seemed like an interesting combination to try out.

For the guys discussing what to do to get a good Pod/GuitarPort tone, maaaaaan, it all starts with bulb. I've had a bunch of my own tones, but after checking out his rhythm tone & tweaking it some for my tastes & my guitars, I began applying most of the basic amp & effect settings to other amp models (his uses the Big Bottom head) & they sound smokin' with minor tweaks here & there.

 

[cobrahead1030]

awesome man, thanks a ton!

i've finally got a break from homework for a few so i can try some of these
