Sweet Emotion
The dreamy, vocal-like intro that 'talks' the title — a guitar fed through a Kustom 'The Bag' talk box, with Perry mouthing the vowels into a vocal mic. Underneath is a Strat into a hot Ampeg V-2, with an early Eventide DDL adding short stereo slap. The descending main riff hits clean and mean. The signature is the talk box plus the studio's tight ambience, not high gain.

What we checked
Computed by a program, on this recipe, every time this page is built. How this works
Preset files — 0 of 3 complete
- Helix 1 block missing from the file
Which ones
Not in the file: Voice Box. The recipe calls for this block, but we have no verified model ID for it on this platform, so the preset is written without it. Add it by hand using the settings above.
- Quad Cortex 6 blocks replaced with a stand-in model
Which ones
Replaced with a stand-in: Vintage Comp, Vocal Formant, Brit 1959 SLP, 4x12 Greenback, Room, Tilt EQ. These load cleanly but are not the model named above — the file will sound wrong here until we map them. Set these blocks by hand.
- Katana 3 blocks replaced with a stand-in model
Which ones
Replaced with a stand-in: Crunch, Delay, Room. These load cleanly but are not the model named above — the file will sound wrong here until we map them. Set these blocks by hand.
What we didn't check
- Nobody played this through a real amp. There is no human listening test behind any number on this page.
- The settings are reasoned from the sources below, not measured off the record.
- No audio has been rendered for this recipe yet, so you cannot hear it before you load it.
- 3 platforms on this page (TONEX, Kemper, Fractal) get a model pointer, not a preset file — nothing was built or checked for them.
