200ms → Most devices don't need more than 200ms, so this is fine to start with. 500ms → Longer recording with more natural reverb. Good for BOSS, Iridium, and software apps.
Most devices only use about 21-46ms. If you choose longer IR data (like 500ms), your device will automatically cut it to the right length.
• Sample Rate
Use 96kHz, 48kHz, or 44.1kHz folder to match your device.
• File Type
RAW: Natural sound response (recommended). *All files without "RAW" in the name are still RAW except MPT. MPT: Minimum Phase Transform - Phase-aligned IRs for mixing different cabinets
Based on:Marshall™ 1960B Small Check Grill cloth Vintage Cabinet
The '412 MARS 1960B S-Grill COMBINATION' is an impulse response product based on the Marshall™ 1960B 412 Small Check Grill cloth. This cabinet is equipped with the rare and vintage Celestion™ "ROLA" G12M25 GREENBACK & G12M25 BLACKBACK speakers, renowned for their exceptional quality.
COMBINATION SPEAKER Cabinet
This refers to a specific technique in guitar amplifier cabinets where different speaker types or models are alternately arranged inside the cabinet — sometimes called an X-pattern, as seen in the Bogner Uberkab™. Generally, this approach blends the unique tonal character of each speaker type to create a richer, more diverse sound experience.
This cabinet IR is recorded with mixed microphones only, to reproduce the synthesized resonance of the different speakers. Single Mic IRs are not included and are available as a separate edition.
Mixed Mic IRs | 48 IRs Included
Each IR is recorded with microphones placed on both the G12M25 GREEN and G12M25 BLACK speakers, with multiple variations for each combination.
The numbers in the filename (e.g. 7-3, 6-4, 5-5, 4-6, 3-7) indicate the blend ratio between the two microphones. For example, 7-3 means the first microphone is mixed at 70% and the second at 30%.
