I own Nolly ,Gojira , Mesa , Petrucci , Cali , Soldano but can’t find the right sound for me.
Are there any presets for it? I would really appriciate it !
In general I am looking for Randy Rhoads and Zakk Wylde sound.
Davlav has a video on these tones where he gets pretty close, using the built-in amps, FX and cabs. Definitely close enough to be a good starting point:
But I don’t have Cortex…
Ah right…in that case, iirc Nolly has a Crunch amp that’s 2203-ish, else maybe try with a lower setting on the Cali (aiming for AC/DC levels of gain from the amp itself), then boost it with a pedal ?
The recipe of both tones basically is Les Paul → some pedal (RR is a MXR D+, ZW is a Boss SD-1) → single-channel Marshall (cascade-modded Superlead for RR, 2203 for ZW) with some modulation and reverb, using the doubler should also help quite a bit.

Thx but I’m not that good at this , looking for put and play.
Randy used a MXR distortion coupled with a MXR 10 band EQ to crank the midrange etc., all running straight into a 59 Marshall Plexi with supposedly stock Marshall cabs. I agree with @ScreamOfAnger that the Nolly plugin will get you there fairly quickly with some minor tweaks.
