Experience the legendary guitar tone of Images and Words

Introducing a premium-quality tone bundle to provide a complete and high-fidelity recreation of all the main guitar sounds used by Petrucci to record songs that defined a genre.

This pack features 8 scenes designed through a process of extremely detailed patch engineering. Thanks to the reconstruction of the gear originally used by the artist and the involvement of powerful DSP technology, the outcome is an inspiring series of tones that perfectly match the ones heard in the record.

The presets are compatible with all Fractal Audio devices: FM3, FM9 and Axe FX.

Scenes:

• Rhythm - tight and harmonically rich rhythm tone heard in each song of the album. Based on the original settings of the Mesa Triaxis
• Clean - cristally, bright and fairly compressed clean tone with a warm touch of modulation
• Lead - juicy and sustained Mark lead tone, more presence in the mid range
• Light Lead - lead tone to perform Take the Time (06:45), Surrounded (01:22) and Learning to Live (08:40)
• Surrounded - lead tone featuring the delay settings used to perform the solo in "Surrounded"
• Pull Me Under - matches the tone used for the arpeggio intro of "Pull Me Under"
• Metropolis Intro - recreates the delay patterned tone in the intro of "Metropolis Part 1 - The Miracle and the Sleeper"
• Under a Glass Moon - that spacey intro tone featured in "Under a Glass Moon"

This pack is our tribute to an iconic tone, we're in no way affiliated with the mentioned artists.
