Miracle Man
The first song Wylde wrote as Ozzy's guitarist, written on the 1981 Les Paul Custom he calls the Grail -- at that point still cream, because the bullseye came later, after he realised a cream Custom made him look like he was trying to be Randy Rhoads. EMG actives into a cranked JCM800 is a deliberately unforgiving combination: it is why the pinch harmonics scream on demand, and why the riff needs a gate rather than politeness.
No Rest for the Wicked
What we checked
Computed by a program, on this recipe, every time this page is built. How this works
Preset files — 1 of 3 complete
- Helix builds complete — every block in the recipe is in the file
- Quad Cortex 7 blocks replaced with a stand-in model
Which ones
Replaced with a stand-in: Gate, Studio Comp, Green Scream, Brit 2203, 4x12 Blackback, Chorus, Room Reverb. 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 2 blocks missing from the file; 5 blocks replaced with a stand-in model
Which ones
Not in the file: Delay, Reverb. The recipe calls for these blocks, but we have no verified model ID for them on this platform, so the preset is written without them. Add them by hand using the settings above.
Replaced with a stand-in: Brown, Booster, FX, Delay, Reverb. 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.
