32
Factory Preset Programs
elcome to our menu of tasty tonal morsels - a veritable sonic smorgasbord of
chef-prepared delicacies. Each one is a satisfying meal in its own right but we
heartily recommend that you try all 32, as doing so will give you a good idea of
the vast variety of wholesome, satisfying tones you can prepare in the comfort of your
own home. And, the only extra items you need in addition to your Valvetronix amp, is your
guitar, a guitar cord and, of course, your ears, fingers and taste buds!
So, what are you waiting for? Dive in. This sort of gluttony is definitely not bad for your
health! Bon appetite...
IMPORTANT “TASTE TEST” NOTE: When working on these 32 presets we used a
bunch of different guitars, loaded with a wide variety of pickups - from the hottest
humbucker to the tamest single-coil. This all said, only one player will ever sound
exactly like you and that is you - which is a good thing (hey, if we all sounded exactly
the same, what would be the point!?). So, if you feel a program needs tweaking then
go ahead and tweak the sucker! After all, it’s your amp, right? In short: USE YOUR
EARS!!!!!
