Preset Collection

The Preset Collection is a tool to organize your presets in logic, simple, advanced or mysteri- 1ous (?) ways (it’s up to you!), or just a simple mechanism to save your favorite sounds and easily browse through artist's presets. You can either use the simplified version in the menu bar of each Softube plug-in, or you can press the open window icon  to open the full Preset Collection. MARSHALL USER’S GUIDE | 5

Plug-in Settings vs . “Metadata”

A Softube preset consists of two parts: the plug-in’s set- tings and the description of it, what we call “metadata”. Metadata is everything that’s not the included in the plug-in’s settings, for example preset name, description, color, rating, tags. When you make a new preset by clicking “Add new preset…” the only metadata that you save is the preset name. You need to open Preset Collection to add other metadata, such as a description and tags. If you instead use “Save as…” when you save a preset, the metadata Type “name:” before the search criteria to limit the search to the name of the (for example tags) in the currently selected preset will be preset. carried over to the new preset. Whenever you change the settings in the plug-in, the preset name will be marked with an asterisk * to indicate the current settings are different from the current preset. It also indicates that the preset has changes that aren’t saved. You need to click “Save” or “Save as” to save those changes.

Asterisk (*) indicate that the settings of the plug-in is different from the saved preset.

When you make changes to the metadata, you don’t have to save these . All metadata changes are saved immediately in the preset database .

The menu shows the current search criteria, currently selected tags, and options to clear the filter and search criteria.

Workflow

For a plug-in with hundreds of presets, the easiest way to start is to type something in the search field, such as “bass”, or select an appropriate tag.

Info pane Type in the search field to find presets.

Use the keyboard up/down arrows to step through presets, and if you find something you like (or dis- like), change the rating of that preset so that you can easily find it later.

Click on the stars in the Info pane to change the rating. It is also possible to right-click the preset and change rating from the context menu. 10 | PRESET COLLECTION

Tags are a simple way to create “folder like” struc- tures, but without being limited by placing the preset in a single folder. A tag can be a use case, a project name, or just about anything! With the preset’s description you’ll be able to add info, for instance how many dBs of gain reduction you need for the drum bus to really glue together, and with names, tags, ratings, categories, and colors you can organize those presets any way you want. The tags become power- ful if you want to organize presets after projects you’re working on. Tag each preset you make/use with the project name, and you’ll have an extra dimension to use when you browse presets. Don't be afraid to add or change metadata in the factory pre- sets .

User Interface 2 Softube Marshall plug-ins are “what you see is what you get” prod- ucts. You should be able to intuitively learn the products within minutes, so that you can work fast and efficient with them. There are a couple of things that remain the same for all of our plug-ins, such as the menu row. These will be explained in this chapter. For detailed information of a particular plug-in, please see its chapter.

Menu Row

At the top left of the plug-in interface you will find control buttons and areas for Preset Collection which were described in detail in the previous chapter.

Directly to the right of the Preset Collection icon you will find the value display:

In the Settings window you can change settings that will affect all instances of that particular plug-in and in some cases affects all Softube plugins on your computer. The different options vary between Windows and Mac, and also different formats and plug-ins. The most common options are: • Use OpenGL graphics: Disabling OpenGL will force the computer processor to draw all graph- ics without the help of the graphics card.

Kerry King Marshall 3 Signature Amp Kerry King has used Marshall amplifiers throughout his hugely successful career. – My sound has always been more about punch than distortion. It’s also creating a tonality that makes a riff sound great, so every single note and chord gets its point across without being disguised by too much gain. This amp does that in brutal fashion! The Marshall 2203KK Kerry King Signature Series amplifier is based on the original Marshall JCM800 2203 amplifier – “The Beast” – that Kerry King used in conjunc- tion with a graphic EQ throughout his early career to boost the signal even further. The 2203KK delivers the ferocity and tone that Kerry King’s sound demands. In this plugin, Softube has carefully modeled the 2203KK amp for you. MARSHALL USER’S GUIDE | 19

The amplifier

In Kerry King’s own words: – I have this one JCM800 amp that I call “The Beast”, because it annihilates all others. It’s as if Satan reached up, touched that head himself and conspired with Jim to create something miles ahead of the rest! It’s the “Golden Child” when it comes to my sound, and it’s been my main live and recording head for pretty much my entire career. – So when it was time to work on this project, I gave Jim’s R&D gurus “The Beast” plus my main graphic EQ. They did a shitload of measurements and copied both exactly – putting my unique EQ curve on a single control called “Assault” and building in an incredibly effective noise gate. As opposed to the JCM800 2203’s four EL34 power tubes, “The Beast” has four KT88s for added warmth and girth plus making it a very loud amplifier! 20 | KERRY KING MARSHALL SIGNATURE AMP

The speaker cabinets

Kerry King’s choice of speaker is the Marshall Mode Four MF400B model, of which he uses several, both in a studio setting and as a live rig. The Marshall Mode Fours are equipped with Celestion G12K-100 speak- ers, giving the cabinets loads of low end to handle Kerry King’s intense rhythm style playing. Two Mode Four cabinets were carefully mic’ed and produced by world-renowned producer Terry Date and recorded at the famous Henson Studios in , . The signal measurements of the provided five different setups where then carefully analyzed and recorded by Softube’s Kim Larsson and Patrik Jensen. By doing so, we have been able to carefully recreate Kerry King’s sound through the production genius of Terry Date and the exquisite recording facilities of the Henson Studio.

The microphones

Different microphones do different jobs, and in this plugin we’re taken advice from the experts. Producer/engineer Terry Date has recorded Kerry King and oceans of other metal and rock acts. In the speaker section you will find five of his ready-produced setups for capturing Kerry King’s sound. FOH (PA) engineer Chris Paccou has done numerous live gigs with Kerry King, and his ready-produced live setup can be found under the second tab of the cabinet section. MARSHALL USER’S GUIDE | 21

The amplifier panel controls The Cabs On switch The knobs

Where the Standby switch is usually located, there is now a switch that allows you to bypass the cab section of the plugin. This will result in only hearing the direct sound of the Kerry King Signature amplifier. This setting is useful when combining this amp with other cabinet/ microphone models. These include the Softube Bass Amp Room (includ- ing 8x10), Metal Amp Room and Vintage Amp Room (including Half Stack). Presence This control operates in the power In all these plugins, the amplifier section can be by- section and adds high frequen- passed.

Turning this control clockwise adds more bite to your sound, mak- ing it crisper and more cutting.

Bass This adjusts the bottom end. Turning it clockwise increases the amount of low frequencies in the sound.

Middle This control adjusts the level of those all-important mid-range frequencies. Turning it clockwise increases the mids and fattens your sound, giving it more punch. Turn- ing it counterclockwise reduces the mids, producing a more 'scooped' tone.

Treble Here you can adjust the top-end. Turning it clockwise increases the amount of high frequencies present in the sound, giving your guitar tone a brighter edge. 22 | KERRY KING MARSHALL SIGNATURE AMP

Renowned engineer/producer Terry Date has analyzed and recorded impulses from two selected Marshall cabinets recorded with a bunch of fine microphones. The location was the legendary Henson Recording Studios in , Los Angeles. For this job, he chose a combination of Shure SM57, beyerdynamic M88, AKG D19 (all dynamics), and a Neumann U87 condenser microphone. The 5 tabs give you different combinations of these mics, each excellent in their own ways. Custom

The third tab in the Cabs section is called Custom. Here you can tweak your own sound from the variety of Terry Date’s ready-produced mic setups. A total of 7 micro- phones can be mixed any way you want, as they have one mixer channel each. ThePan slider lets you position a mic in the stereo panorama and the Volume slider sets the volume. A convenient On switch makes it easy to try out differ- ent mic combinations and the Phase invert switch adds further variations to the sound. 24 | KERRY KING MARSHALL SIGNATURE AMP

A word of warning: When using two or more microphones and pressing the Phase switch on one channel, please make sure you test the sound in mono . Two similar signals will often cancel each other out, if the phase is reversed on one channel . The result will be a thinner sound at a considerably lower volume .

Marshall Legends

4It’s impossible to exaggerate the iconic status of the four guitar amplifiers that are modeled in the Softube Marshall Legends series.They do not only represent milestones in the history of Marshall, they represent milestones in the very history of rock ’n roll—from Jimi Hendrix’ ear splitting solos at the Woodstock performance, the warm crunchy tones of when he played with John Mayall and the Blues Breakers to the fat and smooth distortion from late 1980’s players such as , John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers and many others. These sounds and tones are all available here, but there is also much, much more to be found. This is not least thanks to the long list of presets made by recording engineer Tony Platt (AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Motorhead) who also had a large part in developing these models. 26 | MARSHALL LEGENDS

Marshall Plexi Super Lead 1959 Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend, Angus Young, , Yngwie Malmsteen—the list of Plexi users is a veritable who’s who of rock n’ roll history. Forget all stereotypes about British reserved manners and stiff upper lips. The Plexi is brash, rude and gives you the instantly recognizable sound of rock n’ roll rebellion.

Marshall Bluesbreaker 1962 Marshall’s first ever combo amp was nicknamed the Bluesbreaker after Eric Clapton had used it exclusively on the classic self-titled record by John Mayall and the Blues Breakers. The Bluesbreaker’s amp section is warm and crunchy, and the use of alnico speakers in an open back cabinet adds an unusually chimey and three-di- mensional sound for a Marshall—which has contributed to its status as a genuine workhorse far outside of the blues genre.

Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555 The Silver Jubilee series hit like a bomb in 1987, and tapped perfectly into the rock sound of that era. Un- surprisingly, guitarists such as Slash and John Frusci- ante took the amps to their hearts. The three different channels, flexible EQ and the ability to switch the power amp between pentode/triode operation made it a ver- satile amp that could go from vibrant cleans to soaring leads by the push of a button. MARSHALL USER’S GUIDE | 27

Marshall JMP 2203 The Marshall JMP 2203 first saw light in 1975 and put a new creature in the hands of the proto-NWOBHM bands ever searching for that harder edge-sound. Later on, this amp became the legendary JCM800 but still holds its own when it comes to great rock tones. Artists known to use the JMP 2203 are , Zakk Wylde and more or less all of the early UK heavy metal bands.

Marshall Bluesbreaker 1962

5Eric Clapton’s performance and sound on the John Mayall & The Blues Breakers self-titled album from 1966 was so seminal that the 30 Watt 2x12 Marshall amplifier combo he used on the record was soon nicknamed “Bluesbreaker” after the band. This Softube plug- in model is based on Marshall’s own specimen of a Series 1 Bluesbreaker model 1962 amp, kept in pristine shape by Marshall since 1965. In the making of this plug-in, Softube worked closely with Marshall’s product experts as well as legendary engineer Tony Platt (AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Motorhead and many more) to ensure that the Bluesbreaker was captured in the best possible manner.

Marshall JMP 2203 6 When Marshall JMP 2203 was introduced in 1975, it didn’t only take over the Plexi’s place as the mainstay of the Marshall range. It became the amp that all other rock guitar amps were gauged against. From 1981, the amp was cosmetically redesigned and named JCM800 2203—probably a more widespread name than the JMP 2203—but the circuit remained identical under the hood. 34 | MARSHALL JMP 2203

Rock and Metal Marshall’s Reference JMP 2203

The 2203 became very popular among rock and metal Just as with the UAD plug-ins Marshall Plexi Super players, and there was hardly a band in those scenes Lead 1959, Bluesbreaker 1962 and Silver Jubilee from the mid-70s to the late 80s that didn’t use the 2555, the amplifier that was used in the creation of the 2203.

AC/DC Producer Included Let There Be Rocker Switches To make sure the plug-in made justice to the 2203, The idea for the 2203, and its 50 watt sibling 2204, Softube collaborated with iconic rock producer Tony mainly came out of the demand for an amp with a Platt (who among other great rock records engineered master volume.

Marshall Plexi Super Lead 1959

7It is impossible to exaggerate the iconic status of the Marshall Plexi Super Lead 1959 amplifier. Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend, Eric Clapton, Angus Young, Eddie Van Halen, Yngwie Malmsteen – the list of Plexi users is a veritable who’s who of rock 'n' roll history. Forget all stereotypes about British reserved manners and stiff upper lips. The Plexi is brash, rude, and gives you the instantly recognizable sound of rock 'n' roll rebellion. This plugin is a “what you see is what you get” product. You should be able to intuitively learn to use it within minutes, so that you can work fast and efficiently with it. 40 | MARSHALL PLEXI SUPER LEAD 1959

The amplifier

Softube has worked closely with Marshall’s product The particular amplifier that Softube modeled is not experts and legendary recording engineer Tony just any Marshall Plexi. In the making of this plugin, Platt – who engineered AC/DC’s Highway to Hell Softube worked closely with Marshall’s product and Back in Black – to ensure that the Plexi was expert Chris George, who lent us this amp from captured in the best possible manner. The result is Marshall’s own reference collection. this plugin that allow computer-based musicians to This very amp, built in 1967 and kept in pristine enjoy a legendary Marshall stack without getting shape (at least on the inside) by Marshall’s techni- evicted. cal staff, is Marshall’s own reference to how a Plexi should sound. MARSHALL USER’S GUIDE | 41

The speaker cabinet

The goal for this plugin was to capture how the Plexi sounded when it was new back in 1967 – to get the sound Jim Marshall himself intended. To capture the typical late sixties tone, Tony and Chris – after much testing at Marshall headquarters – chose to use a straight 1960BHW 4x12 inch speaker cabinet, loaded with Celestion G12H-30’s. These are relatively low wattage speakers, similar to those used at the time, which will saturate more easily compared to modern constructions. This adds a lot of character to the end result. The particular speakers in this cabinet were not from the sixties. Speakers that have spent nearly 50 years repro- ducing the sound of 100 watt guitar amplifiers, will have deteriorated and give a much different sound compared to what was intended. The speakers used had however been well broken in to reach their full potential and liveliness.

The microphones

Tony chose to make three different setups with three microphones in each – two close mics and one room mic. Clicking on the Channel Strip sticker on the right side, gives you access the control panel. Here you can select between the three sets of microphones and adjust their individual levels and panning. The settings are named FET, Valve and Dynamic to indicate what microphone types were used. 42 | MARSHALL PLEXI SUPER LEAD 1959

Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555

8The very limited Silver Jubilee series came out in 1987 to celebrate Jim Marshall’s 25 years as a guitar amp manufacturer and 50 years of working in the music business. The unique sound and striking appearance of the Silver Jubilee 2555 made it a big hit among guitar- ists such as Slash (Guns n’ Roses), John Frusciante (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Alex Lifeson (Rush), and since it was only produced for a limited time, it quickly became a rare collector’s piece. This plug-in model is based on Marshall’s own golden unit Silver Jubilee 2555, which Marshall have kept to themselves at their headquar-ters ever since its release. Softube worked closely with Marshall’s product experts and leg-endary engineer Tony Platt (AC/ DC, Iron Maiden, Motorhead and many more) to ensure that the Silver Jubilee was captured in the best possible manner.
