[@RoccoPezzin]

Incredible work, these sound amazing! Thank you guys!🤘

[@LeonTodd]

Can't wait to hear what you do with it. The Michael Thompson style detuned delays are my favourite lead delay atm

Two legends in one comment section

[@r.llynch4124]

Thanks to both of you for this. It's a lot of hard work and to give these out for free is very special!

[@LeonTodd]

Enjoy!!!

[@ChasingSoundGuitar]

Hey man! Been subbed to you for a while, and always link to you in my newsletter. I've had a AX-8 and now am getting an FM3 tomorrow, so I'm psyched! I've never listened to Ragdoll until today, and I'm really happy I gave you guys a go. The music sounds awesome bro! Thanks for all the great videos.

[@BobGuido]

The Nick & Leon CFR pack will be the holy grail for Fractal users. Bring it!

[@208414]

Major props to you guys for taking the time to put there’s presets together and sharing them with us.

[@LeonTodd]

Pleasure!

[@stevenmgyori3826]

Good morning Leon! Thanks to Nicolas for sharing. Lovely Tones and emulation. Be Well All!

[@LeonTodd]

Strat tones for Monday!

[@MarkPritchardGuitar]

Thanks a lot Leon, will have a play later.

[@LeonTodd]

FWIW the Microshift #231 is the same one EVH used ;)

[@MarkPritchardGuitar]

@@LeonTodd nice, thanks mate 👍😎

[@mentoneman]

great sounds my brother from down under! you really do the fractal fx great justice and noticed your clean tones are getting cleaner! :)

[@LeonTodd]

Much appreciated mate! Been watching the Tim & Pete's guitar show episode with Michael Thompson and my lord that man had THE tone

[@seventhsealhere]

Thanks Nick and Leon! Can't wait to try these. Fun to see good ole' HW reproduced on the Axe FX. 👍

[@LeonTodd]

Enjoy!

[@BrettPapa]

Dude that sounds AMAZING!!!! I have got to get one of these!

[@LeonTodd]

Lush and greasy hey! Nearly all of this will work on the FM9 too.

[@DeathMetalGuitar]

Brett, you better check with Mr. Taccone LOL🤔😂

[@DeathMetalGuitar]

LT - as always - these sound sooooo smooth. greasy goodness! thank you 🙏

[@2005vinnievincent]

Fantastic Sr! Thanks so much!🤘🤘☠☠

[@patoloco9516]

Leon, sos un genio, gracias por tanta magia.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@_mysilentblue2227]

Are you guys kidding me!!! These are great, thanks Nick & Leon. Basically archiving historic gear tones into eternity. Now if we could just get Cliff to model the MP-1 that would be great. It's the most requested amp model on the Fractal gear request page.

[@LeonTodd]

I'd happily send my ADA's to Cliff to model, that would be UNREAL

[@J.Feliciano-FOREVER-JAM-N]

Hey Brother! Sounding great as usual, love the Chorus tones. Sold my CE 1 last year as i have a boss CE-20 multi effect pedal, & could faintly hear a difference between the 2. You have absolutely nailed Zack's tone for "No more tears" love it. hadn't even got to that sound on my FX 3. Peace and Love !

[@LeonTodd]

Funny you mention this as I've been searching for a CE-20 recently - I've got the EQ-20, DD-20 and OD-20 so I'm trying to collect all the Dragon Balls :p

[@johnfritzenjr.1240]

My favorite Kings X song

[@arkistriph1]

Thank you Leon.

[@LeonTodd]

You are very welcome

[@davidlambert5123]

The ADA chorus just makes me thing of the clean on Queensryche’s Operation Mindcrime album…these are great!!!

[@theanalogkid4171]

Outstanding! Love love LOVE me some Chorus !!!!!

[@gitarman666]

Good stuff brother (and Nicolas of course) I’ve got the ADA and the H3000 frankly I’ve been fighting with this box for months but these are very satisfying!

[@TheCjbowman]

That was pretty brilliant, all in all. Great tones! 🤘😁

[@LeonTodd]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@LesPaulVOS]

You rock! Thank you.

[@LeonTodd]

You're welcome!

[@davidshankle7359]

All of them sound great as always I really like the S like the SPX90 stuff is wonderful pitch D tuning and all that can never go wrong with that wonderful my friend.

[@billyarsenault1970]

Whenever you demo clean effects I can hear King Diamond singing falsetto over the top of it. Nobody can conjure the 80’s better than you.

[@LeonTodd]

It will not surprise you to learn that the clean tones on Abigail and Them are probably my favourite "metal cleans" ever

[@billyarsenault1970]

@@LeonTodd Appreciate the clarification- The Metal Cleans. Definitely should not be hearing the King over your awesome bluesy, funky, Hendrixy, classic rock cleans- unless I’ve been drinking grandmas tea again.

The black horsemen!

@@Lenser Right on Brother. Check out Leon Todd’s 5 killer King Riffs for some serious 80’s nolstagia.

When you put it through the Mark IV, that was some dirt nasty tone. The gurn of approval appears.

[@LeonTodd]

That's my happy, gurny place.

[@shellsjoint]

Love it!!

[@BobbyLaneProductions]

thanks to Niklaus (spelled correctly I hope) and you LT.. awesome work and effort by both of you.. cheers!

[@BobbyLaneProductions]

have just drifted off into space with H3000.. so nice!!

[@BartekEVH]

4:30 like my Digi 2120 :))

[@ShredHeads]

It would be cool to have some of those old rack effect units however, if you have an axe fx III it can recreate the sounds pretty well. Leon proves that it's possible. 👍

[@LeonTodd]

We want for nothing with the III :)

[@wolfsdenmusic9404]

Ohhh...you tease, Leon. I saw the words FREE...recreations...ADA MP-1....I just glossed over the the Axe FX III part. lol Sounds awesome though!!

[@TalleyWacker1000]

Awesome! I've been looking for something that comes close to the H3000 preset on the H9 and for general detune tips and tricks. Will give these a shot!

[@LeonTodd]

Enjoy! These sound bang on with my h3000

[@rockstarjazzcat]

Love to hear the good stuff nailed! Fun!

[@rockstarjazzcat]

Love the overseas collaboration with Nicolas!

[@LeonTodd]

Yep, how awesome is the web :p

[@nordic2112]

Nice patches and demo Sir. I find it curious though that people place the chorus after the amp, since nobody would have run a CE-1 like that. Alex ran foot units into amps up to the Grace Under Pressure era and later his stereo effects came from racks. I've got the Gallien Krueger CPL he used during the Hold Your Fire era and man, the chorus is brutal.

[@LeonTodd]

Good point. The first time I used a CE-1 it was like that, such a cool sound

[@attillal4821]

Dude .. first of all , your a solid guitarist 💪. Love your style. Question regarding the boss ce-1 setting in the axe fx 3. How could you model or replicate the pre amp that is built into actual boss ce-1 inside the axe fx 3?

[@LeonTodd]

Try a drive block on the SDD preamp or tape dist type

[@attillal4821]

@@LeonTodd good shout. Thanks for the tip 👍👍

Well that is a whole bunch of fantastic.

What was your wet to dry ratio on the pitch ?

[@Maldo-hq4dz]

Hello, great video as always. I’m new to the axe fx world so im still learning big time. I downloaded the bundles but it don’t know how to load them. Can you explain how to load them or can someone explain how to load them. Im using the axe fx 3 mkii. I can load patches but not sure how to load the bundles. Thank you

[@MrBombhouserec]

Goldilox! Love it!

[@LeonTodd]

Always like to throw that in to bring out the King's X fans :)

[@MrBombhouserec]

@@LeonTodd I had the honor of seeing King’s X on the self titled album tour 1992 ish? I was a teenager, watching Ty Tabor play the guitar that night changed what I thought about guitar. So inspiring!

[@NytronX]

Where's the original preset from Nick? Is that the factory preset called "CE-1 Chorus/Vibe"?

[@LeonTodd]

Check the video description for a link to the preset.

[@NytronX]

@@LeonTodd yeah I saw it there, but that's the one you had modified to be dirty. Wondering where the original one was that you said Nick had

[@SnappyJCM800]

Hey Leon what’s your thoughts on Trixter? Their first album is great. Would love to see a riffs and tones video if you’re a fan of theirs. Line Of Fire is one of my favorite songs

[@LeonTodd]

Steve Brown rips hard!

[@SteveRayMorse]

Does this work at FM3?

[@altonreid9726]

Someone plays Rush….stop what you’re doing and hammer that like button.

[@SnappyJCM800]

I have been trying to learn that Nuno line from He-man and I just can’t get it to sound right. Even slowing down. Any tips?

[@LeonTodd]

It's a weird one, I need to be warmed up to even get close. It's almost like a funk riff where it's very "wristy"

[@ngronlund]

How about a Robbie Blunt preset?

[@LeonTodd]

Oh that Big Log tone is one of my favourite cleans ever. What was that, a CE-2 into a pair of princetons or deluxes?

[@BartekEVH]

Hi Leon. :) What action strings have you in this guitar (mm)? Very low. :)

[@LeonTodd]

10-46 on the strat. We're heading into summer here so the heat/humidity means it needs a fresh setup soon.

[@BartekEVH]

@@LeonTodd thanks. But how much mm on 12th fret E1? :)

[@MrBombhouserec]

Will the presets work on the FM9?

[@LeonTodd]

I haven't teseted them but they should work fine except for the SPX90 preset which requires 2 multidelay blocks.
