Carr Rambler preset

Close · 68/100 confidence. Most values readable. Minor gaps filled by inference from similar circuits.

The Rambler is one of Steve Carr's earliest designs: a hand-wired, single-channel club combo in the American 'deluxe' mould, offered as a 2×12. A 12AX7 input stage feeds treble, bass and mid controls and volume, then a second gain stage. A 12AT7 drives an all-tube spring reverb recovered and mixed by a further 12AX7 stage, and there is tremolo. Two cathode-biased 6L6-family tubes run with no negative feedback, with a pentode/triode switch.

Schematic-derived preset files for 16 Fractal and Line 6 modelers: Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, Axe-Fx III, FM3, FM9, and the full Helix family (Floor, LT, Rack, HX Stomp, HX Stomp XL, Native).

Gridleak extracts amp parameters from original circuit schematics using AI vision — component values, gain staging, tone stack topology, tube types — then generates native preset files for every supported modeler. Every extraction is scored 0–100 and the score is published.
