Hey guys, I'm going on the road for about a week, so if I'm incommunicado, it's not because I'm being rude, it's because I don't have an Internet connection.

And for those who are upset about not hearing from us often enough, try adding our support email address to your whitelist. We aren't very aggressive with our updates. We don't want to annoy people. But, when we do send out periodic updates, they seem to get trapped in spam filters a lot. I...

That's cool. I certainly understand where you're coming from. The mixIR2 can do everything the free plugs can do and more: The most innovative thing besides it's "speed" is the routing system. Basically, you have two routing options. Parallel and serial. Parallel is for mixing different IRs...

That's right we're not selling it. We were going to sell it a long, long time ago when we first started developing this plug-in and that web page. But, it took so long, a raft of IR loaders with similar (although not quite as awesome) features have come out in the meantime. So, we decided to...

2-3 weeks.

Damn you Googlebot! The plug-in's not even out yet. That page has been sitting on the site, not linked into anything for a few weeks while we make the installers, finish the manual, and exorcise the last ghosts in the machine. Not sure how Google picked it up. Anyway, it'll be free to anyone...

Like Wild Hades said, you can put the Curve before or after the Cab. It adds a bump in the lows at the speaker's resonance point, scoops out the mids and then adds presence and a lot of air. A tube amp will do this because, compared to a SS amp, it has a relatively high output impedance which...

In the pic above, the unaffected signal comes in around the peak of the blue line, so there's no boost to speak of, mostly some shaping of the mids. Peak to trough it's about a -10db cut. You can play with the amount of "shaping" by using impedance curves of various degrees. We included 50%...

Ran some white noise through the curves and made these pretty pictures:

We've been working on this for a while. We had to work up a little box for measuring the speaker's impedance curve. We were going to wait until we sampled all the speakers in the collection, but this thread made me realize there are people who could use them now. We have the Vintage 30...

Try again, roflsaurusrex. You should be good now. And do yourself a favor and remove your email from your post, lest the spambots get you :-)

Hey guys, Those of you looking for a more scooped tone may want to try the impedance curve IRs we just released. You can download them on your My Stuff page at the bottom, under Updates. They do a nice job of simulating what a tube-based power amp does to the frequency response of a speaker...
