you can use Waves R1, Voxengo Prestine Space or Voxengo Boogex (the last one is free), or Altiverb (cost a lot of money)

jjust open the impulse response in there - and youl see what to do next...

Pristine Space is a VST-Plugin. You can use it inside cubase but, I guess you should read the manual... to figure it out.
btw: you better use boogex as it's freeware and it seems you don't know what you're doing yet, and PS is 119$ (But if you have too much money, you can buy PS as well )
The mighty google is a good starting point if you are new to recording: try searching for "impulse response"
or similar. It will sure take a lot of time reading but it will help you get better.

hope i could help you...

I want make an impulse of my cobra but I don't understand why....

 

[kaomao]

Let's say at home you can't crank the amp, what can you do to have a good cobra sound?
Just do an impulse out of the amp at your rehearsal space, at home record the send of the amp without needing to crankin' it up.
Apply the impulse to the raw/fizzy/shitty track and voilà, now you got a great tone without the neighbourhood going crazy

 

[Tachy]

I have no problem to crank my cobra at home becouse I have my little studio here, but if I understand with impulses I can record the cobra with the emulated output directly in my pc without mic the cab...is right?

 

[kaomao]

Yep that's it!!!!
Remember to have a load connected to the amp anyway.

 

[Tachy]

O yes....I plug the guitar into my head and then record only the preamp with the line out of my head in my pc...but with a di box or direct?

 

[kaomao]

D.I.

 

[kaomao]

Anyway I forgot to say don't use the emulated outputs, because the impulse is your "cab sim".
just use a line out (you don't need D.I. this way I think) or the send jack and a D.I.

 

[Tachy]

Ok, but how is the proces to make this impulse? I have waves IR1....

 

[kaomao]

play this sine sweep through the poweramp.
Pay attention to the low end, prior to recording listen to the sine at a low volume and then raise it till it won't blow your speaker, then record.
Record it and then load it in Waves IR.
You can load from impulse or from sweep, anyway choose "load impulse from sweep file" something like that....

 

[Tachy]

Ok, I play the sine in the send of my head and then record it with my sm57, right?

 

[kaomao]

"return" of your head and then record it.

 

[Tachy]

Oh yes, you are right..return...
Maurizio, thanks a lot for the infos..when I'll have the time I'll record this impulse of my cobra head.
Today I have to test the sound of my new 4*12 std recto cabinet!

So...are we talking about going from the direct out on the back of your amp (or a recording out, as some have) straight into your recorder/daw and making it sound badass?
