CAB and mics

The cab used is a custom made 1*12, front-loaded with a Celestion® G12H30™ Anniversary (16 ohms). It has approximately the same size as the German112 used in other overdriven.fr collections. This cab is made of light wood and does not have a port : it produces a quite powerful sound but with less extension around 120 Hz, and this provides a more even, less scooped sound. The bass section is strong though, as I decided to lower the HPF used for recording, to preserve more of the 100-200 Hz area. You will need to set an HPF when playing to clarify the low-end if you want to achieve clear-cut palm mutes.

IR informations :

• The preamp used is the “TubePreamp2” (JJ Selected Gold).
• Custom 112 CAB loaded with a Celestion® G12H30 Anniversary, 16 ohms
• 9 dynamic mics, 1 ribbon mic, 90 IR files in WAV 44 kHz format
• “-2” in the file names in this collection are additional takes of the same position : it means that the original was recorded with saturation (mainly in the bass area of the speaker) and the tube preamp was acting as a limiter. Interesting to hear the big differences in tone results between the takes 🙂

  • DYN-R20
  • DYN-7B
  • DYN-CN-7
