![]() ToneX Edition (25,00 EUR incl. VAT) If you like Ritchie Blackmore's sounds from the era of Deep Purple Mark II and III and Rainbow, and you happen to have a ToneX and a Strat, check out these profiles! They were made from a very rare Marshall Major amp (with Ritchie's mods).
This pack contains 30 captures that try to simulate Ritchie Blackmore's sounds during his years with Deep Purple (Mark II and III) and Rainbow. These are captures of a Marshall Major with Ritchie's mods. The best is to play these rigs on a Strat, although many captures also sound great on a Les Paul! This amp was also used by Mick Ronson, Stevie Ray Vaughan and John Frusciante. These captures sound the best on a FR speaker because the H55 speaker is an integral part of the unique sound, and for some song captures, IR's were created from the original records. You will not find this kind of captures anywhere else because there are so little Majors left in good condition! I checked it out and couldn't find any, that's why I decided to capture it myself. Furthermore, it was not an easy task to get the right ingredients for Ritchie's sound... Every component in the sound chain had to be the right one. It took me years of experimenting with amps (Vox, Marshall Vintage Modern, and the Major), treble boosters and speakers to obtain this result.
The material that was used for making theses packs, is the following: a very rare Marshall Major 200W Model 1967 amp from 1971-1972 Good vintage tubes (preamp and power tubes) A Hornby-Skewes clone treble booster to emulate sounds during the period of Deep Purple Mark II An AIWA TP-1011 clone to emulate sounds during the period of Deep Purple Mark III and the first two Rainbow albums The Rivera Rockcrusher to reduce the volume at speaker level A Scumback H55 30 Watt speaker A 1970's Marshall checkerboard 1960B 4x12 cabinet with PR-H55 pre-Rola 1969 55-Hz Pulsonic 014 cone Celestion G12H 30 watt speakers Stamped T1281 Shure SM57 and Sennheiser MD421 microphones Check out the sound samples below. Each sound is produced solely by the amp and the treble booster pedals in front of the amp (no plugins, no adjustments).
