Hey all. I'v had this pedal almost a year. IMO its a pretty cool tool. Not great for gigging, but good for messing around at home. Well anyway, the pre-installed patches suck overall but after some tweaking you can get some awsome tones. So I thought it would be cool if we had a place to share our patches.
This is my Accoustic simulator.

I'll have to disagree on the not for gigging. this one has run stereo into just about everything.
And kicks after a tweaking,
A friend of mine who plays a mesa asked once how in the h*** can you get all that sound out a stomp box and two 15w crates.
But any how: heres a couple that should bring some life into things. you may want to tweak the eq for your pickups.
These are ones use mostly when I use to take it out .
Important: Set your amps on clean channel.

What I ment by not great for gigging was that it has a delay when switching between patches. So if you wanna switch tones mid song the patches would have to be near each other. It could cause problems.
I gotta try out that Marshel Sound patch.
Oh and thanks for the links Musi.
Awsome! The first link had this one.

"As about as similar to Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page as one can get with this gadget. A nice warm tone, with a mild blues distortion. Adjust the gain +5 or -5 depending on the song. For best results do not use bridge pickup by itself."
I Have A Fender. Now I can have that warm Les Paul Sound 8)

Yes, you have to group the presets.
I usually put a rhythm sound and the lead sound that complyment each other next to each other.
