SAMPLE PRESETS
"On one hand I am obsessed with every part of how a particular sound was made--what type of guitar, with what gauge of strings, every microphone, pedal and piece of outboard gear in the signal chain, who played it, in what room, in what year, and why. But at the same time, I couldn’t care less how it was made, it either excites me or it doesn’t. All that matters is the song and whether or not it moves you.”
- Darren King
