The Friedman PLEX (EL34) NAM pack has arrived!
Community pack up for grabs on Tone3000: https://www.tone3000.com/tones/friedman-plex-el34-community-pack-49343
Full pack: https://ko-fi.com/s/04ac0fa133
Summary
This pack features the Friedman PLEX (EL34 loaded) head captured using a Mesa 4x12 Oversized Straight cabinet loading down the amplifier.
Bonus OD pedal profiles included.
The Legendary Tones “Mr. Scary” mod was used in 5 profiles as well for some fiery tones.
Calibrated profiles (2 architectures included: STANDARD and REVyHI) showcase the amp’s tonal range.
Since the PLEX has no FX Loop, the pack contains only AMP profiles but covers both HI and LO inputs on both the “High Voltage” and “Low Voltage” (Variac aka Brown Sound) modes.
The full pack includes includes:
• 126 x AMP profiles (1 x DI and 5 mic-ed up, full-rig flavors for every knob combination used)
• 27 x OD pedal profiles
captured using a high-quality signal chain.
TOTAL: 1,512 individual NAM amp. files (756 in STD architecture and 756 in the REVyHI architecture)
Efficiency
Streamlined for users across platforms (Dimehead, Valeton GP-5 etc), AMP profiles offer 6 flavors:
• DI = raw poweramp <-> cab signal tapped with a DI box, no Microphone
• SM57 = full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with a Shure SM57 on the top-left speaker
• SM58 = full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with a Shure SM58 on the top-right speaker
• BLEND #1: full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with 2 mics (Shure SM57 & SM58) blended
• BLEND #2: full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with 2 mics (Shure SM57 & SM58 @ +3dB) blended
• BLEND #3: full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with 2 mics (Shure SM57 @ +3dB & SM58) blended
Reamp chain details
• RME Fireface UCX II -> Lehle P-SPLIT III -> Friedman PLEX -> St.Rock React:IR II (Mesa 4x12 OS Straight load) -> RME Fireface UCX II
• SEND level: 18.995 dBu
• RETURN level: 13.195 dBu
