Steinberg USA has invited Mark ''M.E.'' Edwards, the guitarist for OVERLORDE, to design custom presets for the new VST Amp Rack plugin that comes with their new Cubase 6 DAW software. These presets will be made available via download from the Steinberg website in the coming months.

Meanwhile. M.E. will be demonstrating the VST Amp Rack during two New York City area Club Cubase events during the first week of March. They will be held at Guitar Center stores. Dates and information can be found at this location.

Also, a video has been uploaded to Youtube showing M.E. working on his presets with Steinberg's Sal Pelaez at G&S; Recording Studios in New Jersey. Check it out below:

Screen shots from one of M.E.'s presets can be viewed at his Facebook page at this location.

On a final, and sadder note, below is M.E.s statement regarding the recent passing of GARY MOORE:

"On February 6th, 2011, the world lost a legendary guitarist. Ireland's Gary Moore. When I read the news, I was in shock.

I am a huge fan of Gary's rock/metal work, and had the pleasure to see him live on the Wild Frontier tour. For about 25 years, I have been referring to Gary as "my favorite living guitarist". He influenced me greatly. Just a week before his death, I had performed two of his tunes live. His instrumental 'Blinder', and his version of FREE's 'Wishing Well'. And his influence from tunes like 'Parisienne Walkways' and 'The Messiah Will Come Again' can be found in a number of my songs, specifically 'Lovers'.

R.I.P. Gary Moore. We lost you far too soon.... but your music will not only live on forever in your own recordings, but also in the inspiration you have given other players who will continue to speak your praises."
