IRs sit better in the mix.Why Redwirez Each BIGbox cabinet is sampled at 0, ½, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 12 inches – at up to 6 different speaker positions.



This systematic sampling method results in a grid of IRs with small, linear changes between them.



Because the samples are predictable you can pick a starting point from our Dialing in your tone checklist or choose a preset, then quickly zero-in on the perfect sound.You can use the same micing techniques used in a studio because each library is like a real cab.



You like the graininess of your 57, but it has a little too much sizzle, then move it closer by an inch.



You want two 57s with one off-axis.



Go for it.



You want to mic the cone and boost those highs for more air.



You can.A good guitar tone is built with many moving parts.



Your setup is unique.

Constant level across IRs so you can make decisions based on tone not volume.Mix IR³ plug-in is not included with the Vintage Classics library IR Sampling Redwirez IRs are sampled using a rigorous system.



As a result, the change from one IR to the next is consistent and predictable.



This allows you to dial in the perfect tone.We sample the upper left (or top) speaker of each cabinet using up to 6 positions.



The positions are (as shown above):Cap center Cap 45° Off Axis Cap Edge Cap Edge 45° Off Axis Cone Cone Edge Off-axis means the mic as tilted at a 45° angle rather than pointed directly at the speaker.For each speaker position, we sample at up to nine distances: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 12.The mic will pick up different aspects of the cabinet depending on the mic position.



The farther the mic is from the speaker, the more bleed it will pick up from the other speakers in the cabinet.The cap position is the brightest.



It has the most high end.



The closer you move to the cone position, the less high-end you will hear.Mics also thin out as they get farther from the speaker.



This is caused by the proximity effect exhibited by cardioid and figure-8 mics like the SM57 and R121.



It boosts the low-end when the mic is close to the speaker.Not every mic was sampled in every position and at every distance.

The Celestion website describes this speaker as having a “glorious dampened attack, warm lows, mellow upper-mids and brilliant belllike top-end.” Guitar Player magazine has this to say about it: “The Blue is far and away the most tonally sophisticated -- as well as the loudest -- speaker in this roundup.



Its chime and midrange complexity are truly magical, and it never sounded harsh or brittle.



The Blue handles sparkling rhythms and milkshake-thick lead tones with equal poise, and is an unbelievably dynamic and multi-dimensional speaker that sounds great with any amp.” Details...Speakerbox 1×12(1) Celestion G12.

The Celestion website describes this speaker as having “a heavier magnet than the G12.



M, this faithful recreation captures the unmistakable mojo of late 60s rock guitar tones...



It exhibits a pleasing, strong low-end, complex and buttery mid-range and a finely detailed top-end, the G12.
