STP in a Patch
Helix
While there are several great patches of Dean DeLeo on Customtone, my goal was to faithfully replicate his actual setup. Dean’s rig starts with a Dunlop Wah ~~>Boss Chorus CE-1 in stereo, with one side routed to an SIB Varidrive~~>AC30 amp equipped with Blue Alnico speakers. The other side of the split signal from the CE-1 chain goes into a Demeter preamp,~~>Rocktron Intelliverb, and finally, VHT power amps in stereo which drives two Marshall 1960a 4x12 cabinets.</p> This Helix patch closely mimics the signal path and with added goodies and replacements as Helix does not have it all and the Preamp models by themselves are eh so I needed to add extras for thickness.</p> Snap 1 – Clean’ish: Chime of a VOX model with the subtle warmth from a Placater model, which adds depth. For Deleo’s light crunch, stomp on the Varidrive.</p> Snap 2 – Ryth I: a DeLeo style crunch that captures every note, blended with the Placater for that distinctive sound he’s renowned for. Stomp on the Varidirve for even more depth and crunch.</p> Snap 3 – Ryth II: Similar to Snap 2 just more growl.</p> Snap 4 – Ryth/Lead: More bite and tad more sustain.</p> I have this patch setup with 4 Snapshots on top and 4 Stomps below.</p> Stomp on Sizzle for Wicked Garden, Sin, Piece of Pie, Dumb Love, Crackerman, Interstate love song, and Plush to name a few.</p> Stomp on Auto Wah for sections of Vasoline and position the Expression pedal near mid way for that nasal riff in Vasoline. And for songs like Silvergun Superman</p> My Guitar setup for this patch: Washburn N24 w/ Bridge Pickup, Bill Lawrence L-500, Neck Pickup Seymour Duncan '59n.</p> NO Aftermarket IR / Firmware 3.71
