Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted I know. I've been real busy making videos and playing & things like that. Anyway, I have a new Patch Download Area web page. If you look to the right panel under links you will see it. It not only has my best individual patches from all my Youtube vids but also my entire bundle from my GT-10, X3-Live & XT-Live. I even did some audio samples so you can hear what each patch sounds like before you download it. There are detailed instructions on importing the patches into your Boss or Line6 units. I just put the page up so if any of you have any problems with it please let me know so i can sort them out.
Talk to ya soon, :)
Glenn
Hi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteThis patches are crazy awesome!
May i check, the sample tat u recorded is via the 1/4" L and R from GT10 to the AI? or USB/Phones/Digital Out to the AI?
Tx!
Bryan
Those were all recorded L&R output of the GT-10 and X3-Live and XT-Live.
ReplyDeleteHey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteGreat work! I have a newbie question on compression. I love your patches but some of the higher gain patches sound better to me with the compression turned off, not as much noise when not playing. I notice you use comptession on most of your patches, so I figure there's something I'm missing.
Thanks for the input. Loving the videos, beautiful work!
Ronny S.
Hey Ronny, I just like the way it sounds with the compression and I also have lots more headroom with it on. I don't get any noise though when not playing. I guess it's my pick-ups. IDK. Just turn down the level a bit if it's too noisey.
ReplyDeleteThanks Glenn,
ReplyDeleteLet me ask this another way. Take for example a couple of the GT10 presets P05-1 (Delayed Twin) and P03-3 (Stereo HiGain). With the volume off on guitar and the volume pedal fully engaged there is a lot of hiss or background noise in the HiGain patch. This is what I hear when compressors are on also. Is there a way to compensate for this and clean up the higher gain patches? I run direct to PA and always have to remember to roll the volume pedal back between songs, much like I've seen you do with your guitar volume control in your videos at the end of a sound demo.
Thanks for advice.
Ronny S.
Those are factory patches. I'm not sure about the delayed twin but the Stereo High Gain has waay too much gain. That is what is causing that noise. It's the way Boss programmed that patch. I don't know why they have those patches like that. I always start from scratch when I make a patch. I don't think you can do anything about that noise on those patches.
ReplyDeleteSo it sounds like it's a gain issue then. A similar comparison could be between two of my favorite patches of yours, the Country Lead and the Plexi Lead. The country lead is cleaner of course and the plexi lead has more of what I'm calling the background noise. Turning off the compressor seems to clean it up quite a bit. I see you have the noise suppressors after the A&B preamps, maybe I can make adjustments to NS1&2. I love the sound of the high gain passages and I'm just trying to learn how to tweak them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind reply.
Ronny S.
Glenn,
ReplyDeleteI saw one of your videos that shows the GT-10 in a Flight Case, I read a comment on that video where you indicated the model of the case was;
CNB PDC-4100E Flight Pedal Case
As i really like your setup and I want to buy the same case...That model number at Rondo Music indicates the dimesions as:
27" Long x 11 3/4" Wide x 4 1/4" Deep
The GT-10 is 10 1/4" Wide itself...and it's clear from the video that your "Doghouse" is more than a 1/2" wide.
Can you give me the dimensions of your case?? I would really appreciate it.
Eddie Engledow
eengledow@cox.net
Hey Eddie, I'm sorry, the one I have is actually the CNB PDC 4100G the dimensions are
ReplyDelete29.5 x 15.75 x 5.5
Thanx Glenn,
ReplyDeleteIf it's not to much of a hassle..would you share how you made the "Doghouse"??
Eddie
Hey Eddie, I went to the hardware store and I got some standard shelving wood and a long hindge and some screws. I then measured all the pieces I needed for the top, back and both sides. I cut all of the pieces with a standard crosscut saw, made sure they all fit together nicely. Then I drilled all of the holes for the hindge and all of the screw holes that would hold it all together. I then covered all of the wood with black vinyl sticker material and then I screwed everything together.
ReplyDeleteHey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteI figured out my background noise issue. I run a Line 6 DL4 in the S/R loop. Turns out the power supply for it was too close to the guitar input side of the GT10. I moved it away from there and no noise! I was chasing down the wrong path. Just thought I'd let you know in case someone else has a similar issue.
Thanks!
Ronny S.
Oh OK, I'm glad that's all it was.
ReplyDeleteCheers
Hey Glenn:
ReplyDeleteDownloaded all your patches from your new download area. Thanks for takling the time to make the preview mp3's. I used them for the first time live with my band in a practice session and I was wondering, are they in the order in which you group them on your GT-10 when you play live or are they in a different order? I find that your vintage patches work really well with my fender bassman setup and my strat, but your lead patches I like are on a different bank and are not easy to switch to. I know I can change that but just wondering how you use the groupings as they are.
Dear Glenn,
ReplyDeleteI have to congratulate you for the video on youtube : what a great job ! I saw them because I'm looking for multi-effects pedal and a have a question for you : which of the pod or the gt10 do you prefer ? I'm sure you will give me a good advice.
Best regards from France.
Johnny
Hi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteReally enjoy your videos and website. Thanks for all the hard work and effort that you put into it, I love your patches and the Free to Fly song. I'm hopeful that you could answer a couple of questions regarding your G-10 set up. I notice you use boss 5u (unlatching switches) and not the boss 5L (latching switch)for your switches 3 & 4...is there a reason for that? Also how do i hook up my sacherator,& eq up to the Boss GT-10 the same way you did in your video...I can't seem to get mine to work with the boss even though I hooked it up to the send/return loop...can you help me out? Thank you...God Bless Kurt from Idaho
Hey Mike D, Yes they are in the order I use for live. You know you can "exchange" patch locations. Hit the write button then hit the right arrow on the dial next to the screen and you will see "exchange".
ReplyDeleteHey Kurt, the reason I have the 5U's is because I already had them before I bought the GT-10 and they worked so I use them. About the EQ & Satchurator, You have them hooked up in the loop but you have to turn the S/R loop on. If you go to the Master Pedal/FX menu, scroll until you see the S/R function and enable it. Also in the FX chain make sure the loop is before the pre-amps.
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn
ReplyDeleteI've really been enying your videos on the Pod X3 Live and I am a bassist! I was hoping you would be able to make some "bass related" videos or share some settings using the Pod X3. I'm sure the rest of the bass playing world would enjoy it as well!
Take care and keep up the great work!
Brent Simons,VT
Hey :) I have an cheap ibanez guitar which I bought a year ago. When I play on it with some metal distortion I get this creepy hollow sound. If thats the right way to describe it. I also have a cheap morgan les paul, but it sounds awesome compared to the ibanez. Both guitars have humbuckers.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any tips on how to tweak it right or do think the guitar Henrik, Norway ;)
Great videos on youtube by the way !
Hey Henrik, I think it's the guitar pick-ups in the Ibanez.
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn great stuff/work on all your vids!! I am doubting to buy a X3 myself but also have seen some impressive stuff Axe Fx Ultra demo's on YouTube. I am aiming for the edge sort of playing. Did you do any comparison with the Axe Fx? Whats your opinion? Any hints or tips is more than welcome! Cheers Marc
ReplyDeleteHey Marc, no I have not got my hands on the Axe FX but you need to check out the Eleven Rack from Digidesign. This seems to be the next big thing and it is cheaper than the Axe FX Ultra.
ReplyDeletehi glenn, thank you for your great patches!
ReplyDeletei have one problem, i cant open the 'enitire X3 bundel'. the description says i need to change the .zip into .x3m, but when i download it it already sas .x3m and it wont open with winrar...
Hi there, the description says to REMOVE the ".zip" from the end of the file. Do this by renaming the file. Once you do this it should open in Gearbox.
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your Boss patches. Admittedly and ashamedly, I have been relying on pre-sets mainly since I bought the GT-10 because my 'tweaks' sound terrible and I haven't had enough time to spend monkeying with it. You saved me a lot of time. I play an LP and a PRS and your patches sound great - thank you!! Love your playing style as well.
God bless,
FJ Fortner
Hey you're welcome FJ. Man I'd love to hear what my patches sound like with that LP. That is one guitar that I don't have yet.
ReplyDeletehi, to come back to opening the zip file:
ReplyDeletewhen i download the enitire bundle the name sas:glendelaunebundle_9-14-09.x3m(without changing anything)
but when i try to open it i get an error massage from winrar saying the file: glendelaunebundle_9-14-09.x3m.ZIP is damaged.
then when i try to chenge the name the file doesn't end at .zip but at .x3m
are you still following? ;)
when i try to change the name the file ends at .x3m, but when i try to open it it ends at .x3m.zip
wat should i do to open it?
thanks,
Sorry you are having problems. I just downloaded the file from here. It is just as I describe. The file ends in the .zip. You must rename the file before you do anything. Take the ".zip" off of the end of the downloaded file. then you can open it in Gearbox. There is no need to use Winrar for anything.
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn, your download area is hi-jacked i think.
ReplyDeleteit,s a pity, but keep up the good works.
Keep on rockin.
Yes, bare with me on that. It should be back up soon.
ReplyDeleteHey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteSorry didn't know if you missed my post on bass specific videos or patches for the X3? I think it would be great if you had the time.
Thanks,
Brent
Hi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteThe LP (Supreme) sounds great, particularly with your Plexi Lead and Marshall tones... When I'm 1/2 as good as you (someday maybe) I'll shoot you a video or something so you can hear how your patches actually sound :) I'm currently using an Egnater Rebel /212 setup for an amp. Very cool amp btw. One question... probably a stupid one. In some of your videos you use just the GT-10, which is all I'm using right now, but in others, you add in the Bad Monkey or Satchurator. I'm curious what they give you that the GT-10 doesn't. Can you explain?
Thanks,
FJ Fortner
Hey FJ, I use the external pedals for different levels of boost or just an added distortion. I only kick them in on a lead if I need a little extra boost. The sounds of the pedals are a little different than the GT-10 so it adds a little something extra..
ReplyDeleteHey Brent, I actually use the X3 for my bass recording. Honstley the bass patches that come stock in the X3 are great. I use the Detroit preset.
Cheers,
Glenn
Hello,thx for sharing your exp. in effects and programming eperience.I see in your vid's that you combine 2 patch together and was wondering is this for fullness effect?
ReplyDeleteAlso are there a good place to learn effect teq. For dist,eq,chours and so forth
in trying to achive other guitarist tone's
it all seem's rather complicated : )
thx again
Yes, it is for getting a thick tone. The only way I know of learning how to program tones is by actually doing it. Just spend some time with it. You'll learn. Once you get the hang of it it's not hard at all.
ReplyDeletehey glenn nice vid's what kind of pickups you got in your silver prs? does your live setup with the
ReplyDeletelin6 sound the same as your recorded sound?o yea you are in the review's on musician's friend on the line 6 pedal.
Glenn, your Marshshall Plexi patch from bank 18 sounds amazing as a rhythm channel with the LP. Also the vintage crunch and plexi lead. Those are my 3 favs. Thank you again!!
ReplyDeleteHi, my PRS has Custom #6 Zebra bobbin Pick-ups with a coil tap pull switch. They only made 200 of these guitars. I was lucky enuff' to snag one.Yeah I saw that on Musician's friend, Cool LOL!!!
ReplyDeletehi nice blog.lots of info.i read on here that you run your line6 or bossgt through more routing before recording.do you tweak them even more through software and routing hardware?
ReplyDeletejust asking if the tones are even further
enhanced.
Well, good question!! I run my final output through a Harmonic Converger. Google it!!! IMHO, my patches sound good without the HC but this device adds something special to the "digital" sound. It kinda makes it sound not so digital ya know??
ReplyDeletehi glenn...BBBBIIIIIGGGGGGGG fan of urs...i'v gt an x3 live & it roxxxxxxxx...thnx for all the tones...i'm having a problemb with the tone bundle you've put up for download...i downloaded it but when i tried to unzip,gives an error message saying that the zip file is corrupted or damaged...help me out!
ReplyDeleteIt's not actually a zip file. You have to remove the ".zip" from the end of it and then it will open in Gearbox.
ReplyDeletestill not workin' dude...cd u plz send m d files as gearbox files to my mailbox..wud b very grateful dude...deborsi@gmail.com...n btw,i just LLLLLLOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEE your songs dude...u r a gr8..honestly...
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteI really love your GT-10 patches! And the moment I saw your guitar setup I immediately ordered the Satchurator and Equalizer. The problem is how to connect them to the S/R of my GT-10? Which one should come first and which one should be next?
Hey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteYour tutorials on YouTube are the bomb. Any chance of a David Gilmour patch? Thanks for all your hard work
Eric, I have my pedals in the GT-10 S/R loop. I go out of the loop into the Boss-EQ7 > Digitech Bad Monkey > Vox Satchurator> back into the GT-10 S/R return. The next thing is make sure the S/R loop is before the pre-amps in the GT-10. Do this by going into the Pedal/FX menu and moving the S/R block before the pre-amps.
ReplyDeleteHey thanks DanoWorks, I have been contemplating doing a Gilmour Demo video. Soon I hope!! Thanks for your support. :)
ReplyDeletehi glenn,
ReplyDeletecould you also send me the x3 live entire bundle in gearbox format? 60dagenlang@gmail.com thank you :)
thijs,
Hey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteIncredible ear that you have and playing. Can you find it in your heart to create a Allan Holdsworth patch for the X3 live
Dave Percell
Hey Dave thanks, I already have Holdsworth patches in my X3L bundle. You can download them and check them out. I'm also a huge fan of Allan's. The patches I have were made to sound like Allan's work with JLP Enigmatic Ocen album from 1977. Good stuff!!
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteI have downloaded your patches and wondering what is the best way to setup the input level on the Boss GT10? By that i mean input on the meter go to 70% or more/less to allow your sounds to be fully appreciated?
I would really appreciate any help as i am a bit of a pedal retard and didn't even realise there was an input level meter(i suppose not reading the manual doesn't help!! haha)from what i read the Input level setting is Very important to how you will sound, aswell as patch levelling and level.
I thank you for the time in answering my question and look forward to your answer.
Thanks
Vince(UK)
Awesome vids by the way and loving the Guitars!! \m/
Hey Vince, yes I set my input at 12 noon. That is in the system menu>input settings.
ReplyDeleteCheers from USA
Hi Glenn, Im from Mexico, first of all, thanks for such amazing videos.
ReplyDeleteMy Equipment:
1.GT10
2.Fender DeVille 212
3.Ibanez Prestige S5470 FVRK with factory pickups (H-S-H)
I have few questions, i make all my effects at a low volume (in my bedroom), but when i play live, i have to crank up the volume on my GT10 Output Level, the effects sound brighter to the point that they are kind of annoying (treble boosts a lot), they also tend to sound dirtier, i suppose due to the 6L6 tubes, anny recommendation? the other question is, the knobs in my amp (Bass, Middle, Treble) are all in 5m the Outpur Select in my gt10 es JC-120, and the Input/Output EQ is Factory Preset, What knoob chanfes do you recommend, I let my ear be the judge, but i cant get a sound like yours using your presets. (i use the 4 cable method also).
Finally, i like the sound of Petrucci, Gutrie Govan, Glenn DeLaune:), what pick ups do you recommend me?
Thanks for beeing such a "sound" inspiration
You should be making your patches at gig volume not bedroom volume. That is the only way to get the settings right. As far as pick-ups go you should try the DiMarzio Fred. They are very smooth but can also get dirty if you want.
ReplyDeletei do own a jackson jsut like urs but tis black with flame top,,,now did u change ur bridge pickups on urs or is it stock? mine has the Seymour Duncan JB TB4 humbucker but that bridge souds like the neck and no louder than the neck pickup,, and i am at the point to change the beidge pickup out to an evo 2 for the bridge pickups,,,i honestly think there is somehting wrong wiht the tone knob not letting any highs thru,, it soudns like its so ahrd get the horminic out of it,,now my cheap RG370DXGP4 sounds way better than the jackson,,,odd eh?
ReplyDeletei do also own a ibanez jem dkb and jem7 vhw. i bought the jackson cause it has the sustainor in it,,awsome videos i used to own the gt-10 but i liked the digitech 1101 and rp1000 better,,u should mess with one :)
thanks

HI glen I dig your knowledge on multi efx systems well and your stellar playing. I am currently in the market for a multi efx system. I have read a lot on your blog and noticed you originally were using a keyboard amp to drive your sound. I see in your vids you have changed to a tube amp. I am wondering how the connection between your gt10 to your amps has changed between the Keyboard amp and the tube amp. My situation is somewhat similar I have an old tube amp that sounds amazing. But alas has no effects loop built in. So the four cable method is not an option. So my curiousity is peaked because I hear if you just connect it straight in from gt10 to amp input you lose quality of sound. Your advice is highly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThanks
~ Darren t
Hey Darren, the only difference in the connection between my tube amp and the keyboard amp is that with the keyboard amp I was going GT-10 stereo out into the keyboard amp. With the tube amp I am going Left/Mono out of the GT-10 right into the front of the amp. My output mode on the GT-10 is the same, Line/Phones. I did however have to create a new set of patches. I have no loss of tone or quality at all. If you see my latest video you will hear that the tone is strong and full.
ReplyDeleteHi glenn forgive me my English sorry… Excellent the work that beams with the community of musicians really that I congratulate to you…
ReplyDeleteI have a PODxt Live like pordria to make I to place your Patch of the X3Live in my XT if they are with double chain of Effects?
Carlos, X3-Live patches cannot be placed in the XT-Live. I do have XT-Live patches in the Patxh download area of my blog. You can try those.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Glenn

ReplyDeleteOk, Thank you very much Glenn… the problem is that I want an effect as the tone of Steve Vai in For the love of God in my XTLive and I cannot, that you recommend Glenn to me?
ReplyDeleteThanks
Carlos Guillen, Venezuela
Watch my Steve Vai X3 demo and use the same amps I use and you should get a close sound.
ReplyDeleteok Gelnn Thankyou very very Much for you Answer...
ReplyDeletei like very much yours music and style...
God Bless you
Hey there,I was wondering.I have the xt live,and wanted the metallica patch you made on the x3.Do you have a patch for that on the xt?
ReplyDeleteJames you could try the Line6 Modern High Gain on the XT. That should come close to the sound I have with the X3.
ReplyDeleteThx ill give that a try.Its a great sound! Was wondering also do you know if the xt has the same capabilities as the x3 in regards to the 2 sounds on one patch,panned left and right? Cant seem to find that setting.
ReplyDeleteHey James, the XT does not have the dual tone capability.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas
Ah ok,,thx for your help,appreciate it,and happy holidays to you.
ReplyDeleteHave just discovered your awesome video instructional series on the Line 6 POD X3 Live I own~! I have been trying to figure it out myself for over a year now and just met up with intense frustrations up until now thanks to you Glenn!! Your also one of the greatest guitarists I have ever seen & that comes from somebody who has played one on one with the likes of Mark Sganga, Don Alder, Andy McKee, Tommy Emmanuel and many others! Namaste' abwoon d bwashmaya Brother in Christ!!! Many Continued Harmonious Joyfilled Jahmin Blessings to you and your Loved ones, Wah doh, Thanks :D<3
ReplyDeleteEs una página fantástica; me gustaría aprender mucho de usted espero seguir teniendo contacto por este medio....
ReplyDeleteMuchas gracias
hi, I downloaded the x3 pacthes files but the zip doen't open. It said its corrupted... Can you help me? thanks A LOT!!
ReplyDeleteIt's not actually a .zip file as I explain in the instructions you have to remove the ".zip" from the end of the file by renaming it. It must end in ".x3m" to import the tones into gearbox.
ReplyDeleteOK Glenn, sorry!! my english is rusted.. hehehe... I'm From Brasil! the sounds are GREAT!!!! Thank you man!!!
ReplyDeleteHi guys...I just happened on this page scrounging for GT10 patches...glad I found it.
ReplyDeleteAnyway I'm specifically looking for metal distortion patches. I've got a few extreme metal bands booked at my studio and the stock patches kind of suck. I'm looking for patches that will sound good with downtuned guitars...
If anyone knows where to look please email me greenhitrecordsinc@yahoo.com or message me on myspace or facebook under green hit records.
Thanks
Hi Glen,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for sharing your experience, patience and knowledge!
(BTW - regretfully the X3 bundle folder is damaged. Renaming etc. doesn't work - I've already tried it on several computers (3))
Anyway, your patches sound absolutely great!
Filip
Filip, try it again, I just changed the bundle. It's a .zip file now. All you have to do is download it and un-zip it. Let me know if this works.
ReplyDeleteGlenn
ReplyDeleteI needed a new effects board and after watching you videos I went for the GT-10. Any chance you will ever create a Metallica patch?
Thanks.
I have several High Gain patches for the GT-10 that would be suitable for Metallica songs. Watch my tutorial on downloading my tones and loading them into you GT-10.
ReplyDeleteCheers
Glenn,
ReplyDeleteI would love for you to create a patch to sound like Dean Deleo from Stone Temple pilots. He has such a unique sound. Good distortion but you can still hear the individual notes within his chord structure. Thanks very much for all that you have done.
hey glenn unable to download GT_10 patches to my Mac ! getting A quicktime midi file with nothing on it Bob . but have learned so much from your videos thanks again !
ReplyDeleteOh Sorry Bob, you did download the MAC driver right??
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn
ReplyDeleteHow are you?
With my GT10 I spent one week & learnt how to made Expression Pedal to Increase Overdrive I did everything for e.g. changed source mode toggle to “moment” but unfortunately it doesnt work correctly, could you pls kindly let me copy ur setting so I can complete for what I'm doing.
Ur prompt response to my request would be greatly appreciated. Thx Glenn
Huey...frm Australia
Hi Huey, did you watch my video tutorial on this subject?
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteThx for reply me
Yes I did watch it last 2 weeks ago it was "fantastic video" I'm sorry I could missed out something but I didn't know so I couldn't figure out with set-up how to do it correctly. I really want learn how to do this but unfortunately I've got stuck Rgs...Huey
Hi Glenn
ReplyDeleteEventually I made it successful I did nothing wrong from begin the problem was I turned off the EXP1 Pedal volume I didnt push Exp1 down after set I pushed the pedal down but only can see the light flash on/off but cant hear anything so I think someone might have the same problem like me. Well I just concentrated too much how to do like you & forgot about little thing. Very Good lesson I learnt from you today^ Wish you all the best... Huey
OK Huey, glad you got it all worked out.
ReplyDeleteGlenn
Hey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteNot sure if you if you still follow this blog.
I have tried every possible method to get you X3 live patches to no avail... and I'm pretty experienced at loading in tones.
I love your stuff, is there any way you could send me a .x3m ? justinisasi@gmail.com
thanks,
