This pack, for firmware 2.91 and above, has 102 presets and 101 IRs for the HX Stomp with firmware 2.91 and above. The idea was to use as many different electric guitars/pickups as possible and make acoustic simulation presets for each of them, to maximize the chances to have presets that will fit your guitar.
These are brand new presets, not a simple conversion of the Helix versions : I used 5 different acoustic guitar sounds sources to make this pack, so for each instrument/pickup selector position (like a Fender Stratocaster in neck position), there are five different presets, each using a specific IR made from one of the five acoustic sources. Each preset also has 3 snapshots.
The sources are as follow :
1 A Musicman Majesty piezo sound (simulating a piezo sound often works better with an electric guitar)
2 A Taylor 914ce recorded with a AT2035 microphone
3 A Taylor 914ce DI sound (from its piezo pickup)
4 & 5 are third party acoustic guitar recordings, carefully chosen after pre-selecting a few dozen recordings.
