Product Description
Browsing, editing, mixing, EQing, tone matching, exporting… Cataloged but beyond being an IR (impulse response) loader, Three-Body Technology Cabinetron IR Loader & Guitar Cabinet Simulator would be your one and only tool to find every missing process between your amp and your ears.
MISSION ONE: SOUND QUALITY
You may have an extensive IR collection, but please do not waste your precious resources on an IR loader that doesn't sound good enough. Believe or not, every IR loader does sound different, even if they share the same algorithm. and the secret that makes the difference is the rounding errors in convolution DSP codes. Sound quality is always the first thing that matters to us. Just like Adaptive Filter Topologies that they created for Kirchhoff-EQ, they designed a noise-shaping algorithm exclusively for IR convolution, to ensure every of your IR is ‘pushing the air’ in Cabinetron.
OPTIONAL NON-LINEAR ENHANCEMENT
A guitar cabinet can be simulated well enough by convolution because 99% of the cabinet / speaker’s behavior is linear. But what about the last 1% of nonlinearity? Not only as a transparent linear IR loader, Cabinetron also modeled the non-linear behavior of how the voice coil moves within the magnet. With the enhancement of nonlinearity, more real cabinet-like all your IR’s will be, and more ‘3D’ your tone will sound. Of course, you have full control of this parameter. Tweak it or leave it, it’s up to you.
BROWSING
With Cabinetron’s powerful integrated IR File Browser, you can deeply handle your IR catalog, and easily start your workflow without getting lost in your massive collection anymore. The file management system specially designed for IR’s provides you a one-step solution that allows you to search, tag, add to favorites, organize multi-path… Everything that helps to increase your efficiency and focus on the music.
400+ IR PRESETS
Cabinetron offers you over 400 IR presets designed delicately for various genres and styles. They hope that no matter if you are an IR expert, or just stepped into the world of IR’s, will get some flashes of inspiration from their IR presets.
EDITING
Before finding more IR’s, why not tweak the ones you have first? Also as a versatile IR editor, Cabinetron allows you to unleash your imagination to build your own guitar tones. Whenever you would like to compare, or mix the iconic sounds of up to 8 cabinets, Cabinetron is the only tool you need to make that happen.
SPECTRUM SMOOTHING TECHNOLOGY
Cabinetron allows you to ‘smooth’ your IR by smoothing its spectrum. With the ‘fuzzy’ components getting removed from the spectrum, the resonant frequencies and phase chaos will be significantly reduced. If you like, you can even smooth the IR all the way down to an ‘outline’ of its frequency response, to create your distinctive sound.
31 EQ CURVE MUTATIONS
Cabinetron is stored with 31 well-crafted guitar EQ curves that give you the ability to adapt your IR to various music styles. With the Mutation knob, you can apply the variations to any of your IR’s, which means you can get 31 different IR’s out of the original one.
‘FRED’ MIKING TECHNIQUE SIMULATION
‘FRED’ is a commonly used miking technique in the real world - to mix input signals from two microphones positioned at a 45-degree angle, then adjust the ratio of the two signals to bring variations to the recording. The technique now gets simulated… for your IR’s! Be free to ‘FRED’ your tone with a single knob in Cabinetron.
VIRTUAL MICROPHONE POSITIONING
"Not bad. How about move the mic 1 inch further from the cabinet?" "It’s not a real mic. It doesn’t move…" In Cabinetron, IR does move! Cabinetron allows you to move your ‘virtual microphone’ by adjusting its horizontal ‘position’ and vertical ‘distance’. There you get another dimension to play with your IR’s.
SPEAKER IMPEDANCE SIMULATION EQ
Speaker’s impedance often poses an awkward issue in IR production. Different power-amps that connect with speakers could generate very different frequency responses in high and low frequencies. You have the freedom to fix that in Cabinetron. The frequency drifts brought in by the impedance get offset by a model based on physical cabinet circuits, which is implemented as a 3-band EQ. You want a growling low end? Just push the knob way up to the top!
