Brett's AC-20. Axe-FX III, FM9 & FM3 Factory Preset

Back in 2012 I went looking for a more reliable stage solution than a traditional amp. I loved amps but they were proving to be fraught with danger (blown preamp valves, bad mike placement, TOO LOUD, crappy speaker, etc...). My brief research told me that the industrial-strength answer was Fractal Audio's gear. There were other players but really, if you wanted the best, just get the best. Fractal Audio. So I put my name on the waiting list and waited for about 18 months or so. It was worth the wait. At that point it was an Axe-FX II which I used on some big tours here and overseas. I've been using Fractal Audio gear on stage and in the Youtube room ever since and it's been outstanding. I'll never look back. Now I'm honoured to have a few of my own patch creations burned into the latest factory presets. "Brett's AC-20" is one of them and this video makes an attempt at demonstrating what was going through my mind when I put it together. It's free of course, for anyone who owns an Axe-FX III, FM9 or FM3. Rock on.
