By far this year’s most requested Gift of Tone, today’s release is from Neal Schon of Journey. The man is an institution and literally needs no introduction.
🎁 Neal’s Gift of Tone is a preset from his live rig containing four scenes from clean to lead. You might look at it and say, “Wow, that’s so simple. Is this really his preset?” Yes, this preset is what he plays through, but to truly get Neal’s fantastic tone you’ll need to learn to play like him. (We wish you the best in this endeavor!)
REQUIREMENTS: Axe-Fx III firmware 23.05 or newer. FM9 firmware 5.0 or newer. FM3 firmware 7.0 or newer. (To import a preset, use Import Preset in the top level Preset menu of your product’s editor.)
NOTE: This preset requires two expression pedals: one for wah through “External 1”, and the other for Delay and Reverb levels through “External 2”.
The EV pedals are available in our Shop.
In the electrifying world of live performance, the spotlight shines brightest on center stage, but there’s an unparalleled talent out there every night with P!NK that shines brighter than any pyrotechnic. Justin Derrico is the exceptional guitarist who powers P!NK’s sensational shows from stage right. His guitar mastery is more like guitar MONSTER-Y. You can also catch him and his Fractal Audio gear on NBC’s The Voice, where he is the guitarist in the house band—one of the most recorded in history, where he learns and performs 75+ songs every week.
🎁 Justin’s Gift of Tone is a Preset-Cab Bundle containing the scenes used in his live rig heard across the world’s biggest stages. It features a clean, a rhythm, and two leads — one based on his coveted JMP tone! There’s a whammy and a wah, and multiple effects (fewer FX on FM9 and FM3 versions).
REQUIREMENTS: Axe-Fx III firmware 23.05 or newer. FM9 firmware 5.0 or newer. FM3 firmware 7.0 or newer. (To import a preset, use Import Preset in the top level Preset menu of your product’s editor.

FROM CHRIS
Since I’m a self professed studio rat, I use these sounds exclusively for recording. My philosophy with my presets is to have a block for anything I might want, even if it’s not on, it’s there with a good starting point on each channel, ready to go. I like to build presets based on an overall sound, with the scenes used for different options. For instance, I have various presets for clean, dirty, heavy and special effects. Within those presets I’ll have a different sonic option on each scene so I can quickly audition different sounds depending on what part I’m recording. These are all starting points and once I find something I like, I’ll save to a new preset number and start tweaking for the record I’m working on. This preset combines a few of those scenes into one preset:AC-20 – Clean, AC-20 – Breakup, Tucana – Clean’ish,Tucana – Drive
JVM – Rhythm, JVM – Drive, Revv Gen – Heavy, Rev Gen – LeadThis gives a variety of sounds to use when producing a rock type track. Obviously guitars/pickups can have a major effect on these sounds, which is why I’ve built in EQ’s in front of the amp block and after the cab block. Don’t be afraid to tweak it here to make it work for your setup.
PS: although I still use traditional IRs quite a bit, I’m loving the ease of use of the new DynaCabs, so I’ve included those here. Again, don’t be afraid to grab those controls and quickly shape the sound to your liking.
