Anyone with direct experience with multiple IRs and specifically into metal (death, black, doom, thrash)?
Cab IRs are key to a good ITB guitar sound and I'm not sure I'm 100% satisfied with what I have... I have used and have a few IRs: Redwirez (the whole v1 package), Recabinet (whole package + Remaster), Giacomo Pasquali IRs, and some freebies.
I didn't get anything new in quite a few years and wonder if you could recommend new releases that are high quality and would fit extreme metal (I dig Mesa, Engl, Marshall, but open to others). Wouldn't mind a couple extra packs for clean / experimental (i.e. Fender).
Often you can't demo IRs, hence asking for opinions.
I heard great things about York Audio, ML Sound Lab, OwnHammer, Bogren, GGD.
Very much looking to keep it clean and limited, if possible... I mean, I'll need different mics, positions and distances, but I don't need another 50 cabinets captured with 30 mics is 70 positions![:lol:]( "Laughing")
When micing, I mostly used a Powerball or Dual Rectifier head with Mesa or Marshall cabs and recorded with SM57 plus a condenser or ribbon (which varied each time: 414, 121, a few Neumanns).
As IR loaders I have MixIR2, Cab Lab 4 and currently demoing Cabinetron (find it fantastic, but very expensive)... got them to almost null with the same IRs, so I'd guess it really doeasn't matter, but still welcome any recommandation about loaders, too.
Would love to hear about your experience.
