Garageband Legacy Presets

El Sabado
This is an guitar amplifier preset that uses the standard 'British Gain' model. As you might guess from the name, it's sort of loosely inspired by Tony Iommi's tone. It sounds much heavier than the stock 'Classic Rock' preset, but less grindy and buzzy than the 'Metal' preset (though, I think, fatter and more crushing. Good stuff.

You can hear 'El Sabado' rocking away on some of my home demos like 'On the Hill', 'The Colour Out of Space', 'Over the Wine-Dark Sea, and 'Bad Man'. I think it sounds all right for an amp sim!
