Impulse shootout with JMP-1, including Guitarhacks/Recabinet/Poidaobi impulses

[noarin]

Here is a fair impulse shootout clip I've made, including the new Recabinet demo ones.

Chain: Gibson Les Paul studio+ -> JMP-1 Pre-amp out -> Firepod -> Voxengo Pristine Space.

No post processing whatsoever at all, exact same track used five times, the only difference is the impulse used!

impulse 1: Noarin Diezel V30 impulse
impulse 2: Recabinet Ghandi 4x12 EL34 57 edge grill impulse
impulse 3: Poidaobi's ENGL higher presence impulse
impulse 4: Guitarhacks NEW IR Set1\3\edge-half impulse (not sure which one it is, but it's one of my fav. GH ones.
impulse 5: Recabinet Damien 2x12 EL34 57 edge grill impulse

[...] wrong thread

 

[noarin]

I've read your post in the other thread, hehe
in case someone wants to try with other impulses, or in case someone thinks I'm doing something wrong, here is the original preamp out track in 24-bit wave.

Can you upload that Diezel impulse, I dont have that one yet.Thanks

Haven't checked it out yet, but for clarification, the Damien cabinet in the Recab demo is a Marshall 2x12.

[hoehlentroll]

yep 2x12!
@noarin sorry I followed the link and somehow thought I'm still inside the other thread
I wouldn't say one impulse is clearly worse or better than the others, just depends on the situation

 

[noarin]

I'm sorry, I have edited it in the first post. Thanks for noticing 006!
The Diezel impulses are here:

(the soldano impulse is much better than the 6505 one, don't know what went wrong with that one)

 

[noarin]

yep 2x12!

haha, not a problem

Hey dude, could you add a test with my impulses to that? Here's the link (my favorites are 57 On Axis 1 and 4, both with more presence) I'm curious to hear how they stack up!

 

[hoehlentroll]

+1
metaltastics impulses are tasty too!!!

 

[006]

Seriously yes man, try out Marcus' Stilletto cab impulses, v2, they are pretty damn good!

[noarin]

not a problem! hadn't heard your impulses yet metaltastic, they are awesome

here is the new clip: figured I'd put your impulses in between the others so as not to get all the impulses and than two of yours after each other.

http://www.sanandreas-web.com/noarin-impulse-shootout2.mp3

1. noarin diezel v30
2. recabinet ghandi 412 el34 edge grill 57
3. metaltastic stilletto on axis 1 more presence
4. Poidaobi's ENGL higher presence impulse
5. Guitarhacks NEW IR Set1\3\edge-half impulse
6. metaltastic stilletto on axis 4 more presence
7. recabinet damien 212 el34 edge grill 57

 

[noarin]

I like your on axis 4 more presence impulse a lot!

 

[Metaltastic]

Thanks for the props guys! And listening to them all compared, I definitely think mine are the most cutting by far; in comparison that might not sound too good, but I know that compared to my other (darker) impulses that I made, those two (1 MP and 4 MP) are my favorites in a mix, so I'll stick with 'em! (and I have the small pride of knowing I'm using my own ) Thanks Noarin, great idea!

 

[Metaltastic]

Although upon reconsideration, I think Poidaobi's might be the best balance between the shrillness of mine (thank you JSX) and the extreme muffled sound IMO of the others - so good job Poi!

 

[006]

I need to make some impulses of my Mesa 4x12 for me to use, and share of course Would be cool to have my own, I think.

And Marcus, the 2nd version of your impulses are actually really good, great job on them

Great stuff, thanks for posting this.

Just a personal opinion and I guess it's a matter of taste, but to my ears GuitarHack's impulses still remain undefeated
