IR Format Guide

• IR Data Length

IR Length Options

Choose from two recording lengths:

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

Sample Rate Options

Use 96kHz, 48kHz, or 44.1kHz folder to match your device.

• File Type

File Types

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

mic preamp

API™ 512c

The quality of IR data depends heavily on your capture gear.

Delivers ultra-low noise and musical coloration from API's original 2510 and 2520 op-amps.

Provides deep, tight lows, clear highs, and punchy tone ideal for rock and metal.

Based on: Mesa Boogie™ Rectifier Armor Cabinet
Speaker: Celestion™ G12 Vintage30 (1995, T4335)
mic preamp: API™ 512c

This IR was created using the Mesa Boogie™ Rectifier Armor Cabinet, known for its robust construction, paired with a 1995 Celestion™ G12 Vintage 30.

We focused on capturing the tight low-end, rich midrange, and clear high-frequency response produced by the Armor Cabinet's sealed construction.

This model was recorded using an API™ 512c preamp with different mic positions from the Neve™ VR Preamp version, featuring enhanced brightness and clarity.
