Overloud SuperCabinet Library: CHP Barber SK112 V30

The Barber SK112 V30 is an amazing Choptones SuperCabinet IR Library. It was created by capturing a Mezzabarba Skill 30 1x12 cabinet with well - known Celestion Vintage 30 speakers. This cabinet features a straight - front design, is made of Birch plywood, has an open back, and is very compact. The Celestion Vintage 30 speaker, famous in the guitar world, can handle more power and overdrive. It combines an old Celestion 'H' magnet with a new cone and coil, delivering warm low - ends, a rich mid - range, and detailed top - ends. For this library, captures were done using a motorized mic stand with 12 high - quality microphones. Each microphone had 8 to 16 positions, and multiple Mic preamps were used, resulting in over 300 IRs in total. The microphones used include AKG C414, Audio Technica 2035, Audix i5, and more. Every microphone was moved to 4 horizontal positions and 2 distances, creating 8 IRs per mic. Some measurements were repeated with the microphone at a 45 - degree off - axis angle. All measurement sets were repeated twice with different Mic preamps: a Neve 1073 and a German preamp.

Using this Overloud SuperCabinet Library is a breeze. First, install it on your audio software that supports IR libraries. You can then choose from the over 300 impulse responses (IRs) to get the sound you want for your guitar tracks. When selecting an IR, think about the type of sound you're going for - warm low - ends, rich mid - range, or detailed top - ends. You can experiment with different microphones and their positions to create unique tones. As for maintenance, make sure to keep your software and the library updated to ensure the best performance. If you're using a computer, keep it clean and well - ventilated to avoid any overheating issues that could affect the audio quality. Also, be careful when handling the audio files and don't delete any important parts of the library by mistake.
