FIRMWARE v2.0 PRESETS
Versatile
This patch is the most versatile preset in the pack. You have your clean tone, first stage drive, second stage drive, and some modulation effects. There’s an envelope filter, chorus, rotary, and tremolo. There’s also an analog delay and a subtle cloud reverb. This preset can do anything from rock to country to RnB to pop and everything in between while having the possibility to get into experimental territory with the modulation effects.
Rock
This preset was meant to be heavy and get heavier. With overdrive and distortion options there’s enough gain on tap for lead guitars, crunchy rhythm guitar sounds and solos with a dedicated FET boost switch. You also have some modulation, delay, and reverb effects that help to make this lead tone sing.
Worship
This is similar to the Nobes Versatile Preset but with just more cloud reverb and a vintage rack delay. This is perfect for worship tones or more of a versatile ambient tone than can be used for different forms of alternative, progressive rock and pop. Along with the modulation effects, I also have an octave effect that works great with these genres.
Ambient
This preset commands slow, well thought out playing. With long delay and reverb trails, you can make deep, spacey soundscapes. There’s an additional delay, subtle in the mix, that creates and octave shimmer with particle textures. You also have a stereo expander, chorus, and a slow rotary to help texture the stereo image. Use the drive to add more grit and edge to your ambient playing.
Wah
This preset is used for funk and disco. A nice clean signal that is punchy and present with just a touch of spring reverb. I use the Hotone Tuner Press on expression mode to engage the wah. You can add chorus and get into some distortion wah territory as well.
FIRMWARE v1.0 PRESETS
Clean
This works for every genre that requires that solid clean guitar sound like R&B, neo soul, alternative, country, and more. It has just a bit of delay and reverb, a transparent overdrive, and a chorus and tremolo on tap ready to be engaged
Lead
This one is heavy! Perfect for leads and solos. It has a comfortable layer of delay and reverb to help elevate your lines, and is packed with a FET Boost and chorus if needed!
Stage 2
You’re on your clean setting, you turn on your transparent drive, and now it’s time to shift to another gear. The Nobes Stage 2 has more drive on tap, but won’t take away from your chords or rhythm playing. The perfect in between drive tone!
Ambient
Now here's the magic! It is the perfect combination of a tape delay and a cloud reverb that gets you into ambient territory without taking too much away from your clean signal. This is crisp, clear, and dreamy and is my favorite sound preset out of the bundle!
Lead 2
This is essentially the Nobes Lead, but with an ambient twist that perfectly curates the tape delay and cloud reverb for those lead lines that you really want to ring out!
Delay
This is my dialed in dotted eight delay sound with a drive pedal and some cloud reverb. It sounds great for rock and indie genres that call for that U2 kind of delay we all love!
