What's Cabinet IRs

  • Engineered to Inspire

    TacoSounds IRs are generated after meticulously selecting microphones tailored to each cabinet's characteristics and fine-tuning the mic positions. This approach aims to capture the true sound and unique personality of the speaker cabinets. During the miking process, it's essential to play the head amp and cabinet, listening carefully. This step is critical in determining which speaker units to drive and at what volume to create the IRs. Our IR data is rigorously refined to closely match the quality of tracks recorded live with those processed through a head amp and IR loader.

  • The Gear Matters

    TacoSounds IR's goal is to deliver vibrant, authentic tones that harmonize beautifully within an ensemble. To achieve this, we go beyond just selecting microphones; we use carefully chosen outboard gear, power amps, and cables of high quality. Capturing the cabinet accurately is vital, and the recording environment plays a crucial role in this. By combining these elements, TacoSounds creates IR data that faithfully represents the cabinet's characteristics.

  • Passion for Music

    TacoSounds enables users to quickly achieve superior tones with ease, thanks to our skilled miking techniques and proven microphones. This reduces the time spent on sound selection, helping you focus on music production.
