I made some new patches using knowledge I have picked up since making the first patches in 2015 an I feel that I have improved them a lot tonally and more accurately with revised timings to the head positions.
This really is a good machine and for those on a budget is a very good affordable option to get even closer to the sound we love.
This can never be a real Meazzi, nor is it capable of cloning a TVS3, but I will say with confidence that sitting and playing in my living room, the sound is more authentic than I ever managed to get it with the old Zooms, Alesis & Magicstomps. I put it down to the improved technology with the components and of course experience.
I'll make new patches available to all for free, as soon as I'm satisfied with them all.
That's very generous of you Dave, more so considering you have both a Meazzi and a TVS3, so have no real need for the patches yourself.
I'd love a set for myself, so will be keeping a close eye on developments . Once you're happy with them and they're out "in the wild" so to speak, if I can be of any help in terms of distributing them, I'd be more than happy to assist.
