Thx

[@romejhey3738]

Thank you! Cheers from Philippines!

[@anthony27436]

Brilliant!

[@bryamuuareme329]

Thank you sir! This is soo very generous of you to share. I really am very grateful for the IR as well as such a great tutorial. You really explain what you're doing and why. This is beyond helpful for a person who is new to dialing in a modeler. You really are a great teacher!

[@shelterlee9734]

This link was posted three years ago and dropbox says that its deleted. Do you still have your IR impulses available for download?

[@orcristwielder]

These vids are awesome!! Please do a SLO next...and Hot Brit...and Plexi...ah bugger it, do em all Leon. You have great ears, man.

[@LeonTodd]

Hopefully i'll work my way through them all, some real good ones in there!

[@spetersonmusic]

Nice stuff Leon. Been using Atomic as my alternate rig since the first 3 button Amplifire shipped. Love your videos like this, you never stop learning and you show me methods and systems of approach that are useful and informative. Thanks!!! Keep on doing what you do!!

[@LeonTodd]

Cheers man. Pretty impressed with this thing especially given the size and price. If the FAS gear is the king then this is the kings guard.

[@rccampbell460]

Could you dial in a 80's hard rock rhythm tone on the Amplifire?

[@LeonTodd]

yes, soon!

[@mikepadgett8074]

I agree with Nugelous 100%. I learn a lot when you do these kind of videos. Awesome tone.Thanks!!!

[@3745green]

Ok, I'm sold on a backup for my ax8.

[@WholeLottaBulldog]

Such a fantastic device the amplifire. Imo feels a mile better to play than helix, cant say how far its from the axe fx

[@gordontubbs]

Power overwhelming.

[@apofire]

Leon, Leon, Leon...AMAZING stuff!!!! I stumbled onto your videos a few days ago and I'm so glad I did. You have helped me tremendously with dialing in tones and understanding how certain parameters work to create amazing sounds. I look forward to future Atomic Amp vids from you.

[@FlightSimDude]

I've never had any luck with Amp sims and IR's . Right now I'm using a Bugera 1990 and a Twonote Captor 16 . I do like the sound you are getting .

[@kostas4758]

Nice video, keep it up with the AA stuff ! Subbed

[@LeonTodd]

Should be some more soon!

[@kylegrossi8175]

all of these are solid

[@antoinefleuriot2509]

Great demonstration by the way

[@billtrantos19]

Best Atomic videos on KZbin! Another conquered modeler after the Fractal stuff you show us! I'm practicing through S-Gear 2 at the moment, but I'll probably get a modeler soon and your videos always help for decisions like this.

[@LeonTodd]

Need to try S-Gear again, heard good things recently

[@aarondesmond2739]

Thanks so much for openly sharing your knowledge. I have been learning so much from your channel. The Atomic can be overwhelming at times You break things down so amazingly. Thanks again! Looking forward to more of your work! All the best:)

[@rangerdoc1029]

Please do the SLO dial-in next.

[@bobbitchn5290]

Brother Leon kick it, thanks for the tips!

[@bryamuuareme329]

I really wish that I could thumb up more than once. Really amazing content. I'm going to start watching your Axe videos too and I don't even own one of those. Just an AA6. But you're such an amazing teacher with this that I want to tap into those just to get more info on how to tune a modeler in general. Bravo brother! Bravo.

[@LeonTodd]

The AA6 is a great piece of gear, more than happy to help!

[@12jburnard12]

Any chance this IR is still available somewhere? Thanks for the great content!

Another sweet AA video Leon! All killer, no filler! Can’t seem to find that IR though.

cheers, you’re a gent!

[@kevin6624]

Hey Leon. It's HoosierDaddy. I'm on my friends pc. Question for you .. Can you adjust things like sag on these |Atomic 6's? Also, Do you like the effects? I mean, I like to use a harmonizer from time to time, and delay and reverb, and that's basically it. I also will use my Bad Horsie Wah, and I can't think of anything else except maybe some compression for a clean tone. I only want a clean tone, edge of break up, and lead tone, and lead tone with a harmonizer .. Sorry for the long question, but you're the master of the modeling domain sir. :-)

[@dropthesun]

Awesome job, like always Leon!

[@LeonTodd]

Cheers mate!

[@santilozus5370]

Have you tried Waves Archon sim? Impulses are limited to 50 ms there, though, so it would also be interesting to test what effect IR length has on the final result and who can actually feel a difference.

[@LeonTodd]

yeah i've done a review on here. Pretty good IMO

[@santilozus5370]

@@LeonToddThank you very much! in the spur of the moment I overlooked that. I will check it this afternoon at home! I have it and kind of think the shortening of the impulses is a weird move on their part.

[@redsilverjack]

Leon Jesus Christ myman. You got One more subscriber amazing channel. Thanks for the time you put on this I do appreciate it as I have one amplifire 12 but not expert on how it works (I am actually finding out) Would you do a video on setting up on between 2 presets. Gr8 gr8 tone

[@LeonTodd]

Added to the list, cheers mate!

[@danicaraballo]

Thank you very much Leon , i've bought a Amplifirebox and it's incredible.. top quality , ultra portable and easy to dial great tones, any chance you could share this Arkhan preset?? sounds amazing, man!!!!

[@LeonTodd]

I'm overseas at the moment but I'll dig it up when I get home

[@danicaraballo]

@@LeonTodd thanks so much!!

[@anthony27436]

Do you have a standard rule set for adjusting eq setting for cabs? IR?

[@thiagogueri]

What are the pups in this axe? Their output is so hot. I get half of the heavyness you get on the "stock settings" lol

[@constantinosmavroyannis9409]

great vid. isnt that arkhan model great? you can even get it dirty and tight enough without the boost and then clean it up with the guitar pot

[@Flonkation]

Todd, do you reckon there would be a market for "simulated IR responses"? I've looked around trying to find something like this. some software to construct an IR.

[@TheJoecoool]

where i can buy this ? its sold out at the company site !!!

[@crappyboy6522]

What strings need to use with Drop C and 25.5 scale ?

[@Brennosguitarsandgear]

Sounds great bud , any chance of sharing the patch ?

[@LeonTodd]

I'll transfer it today ;) Your AA3 made me want one of these!

[@thelasthardman71]

great video..please share your cab sim..can't find it anywhere

[@Zhorellski]

I have the old 3 footswitch AA, is this available via firmware update?

[@LeonTodd]

Should be

[@antoinefleuriot2509]

Not your fault but this video shows just how incredible over complicated and frustrating it is to get a good sound from the Amplifire. I am not a sound tech, I have no idea what frequencies to cut and boost and don't really want to spend hours trying to get it right only to discover when you play this at high volume certain frequencies get emphasised and other ones lost, its too fiddle. I have this and the Kemper the Kemper is dead easy to get a great sound straight away but the Amplifire I have spent frustrating hours with but still get a crap sound I am not happy with, even though I know it is capable of great sounds. Rather spend the time playing guitar with something simple user friendly to setup and get great sounds like the Kemper(I am not a Kemper salesman)

[@LeonTodd]

The Amplifire UI is my biggest gripe with it. Sounds great but it's not as plug and play as a kemper.

[@antoinefleuriot2509]

@@LeonTodd Thanks for replying. Yes I think also if i'm correct not all the settings that are on the Amplifire are on the UI and visa versa. Just to further complicate things but this would be true for all amps and modellers is the sound will vary depending on the guitar, weather single or humbucker pickups, hi or low gain and pickup character frequencies. I feel a bit like I need to put a white lab coat on to set it up, wish I could afford a guitar/sound technician to set this gear up.lol

[@bluenetworks1216]

Antoine Fleuriot you could try purchasing some premade presets that could help
