Product Detail
IronAxe is a high - end physical modeling software that replicates the beloved electric guitar. After years of R & D, it authentically captures the beauty and expressiveness of a real electric guitar by simulating the physics of its acoustic and electronic components. It outshines old, costly, and bulky sample libraries. With IronAxe, you can customize your Stratocaster or Telecaster, select pickup types, numbers, and positions, adjust tone knobs, choose plectrum hardness, or pluck strings with fingers. Control it all in real - time using a MIDI keyboard or a MIDI guitar. It comes with a full set of analog modeled stompboxes, legendary amp/cabinets, and room simulation, making it a perfect tool for advanced guitar sound design without extra expensive software or hardware. It uses cutting - edge technology to simulate all aspects of the guitar, from strings to pickups, along with performer actions and unpredictability. The result is a realistic and 'alive' instrument with many benefits like smooth dynamics, fast loading, and a small memory footprint. You can easily create complete and realistic electric guitar tracks. It also offers various modeling options, multiple engines for performance, and comes with useful effects and a full MIDI CC mapping. Supported sample rates are 44.1 / 48 / 88.1 / 96 kHz.
Using IronAxe is easy. First, install it on your computer, which takes less than a minute. Then, start customizing your electric guitar. You can choose the guitar model, like a solidbody with 2 or 3 pickups. For the sound, select the pickup type, number, and position, and set the tone knobs. You can decide whether to use a plectrum and its hardness, or just pluck the strings with your fingers. To play, you can use a standard MIDI keyboard or a real MIDI guitar. When using the MIDI keyboard, you can perform multi - techniques like palm muting and tapping harmonics. The KeyPerformer Engine lets you play complex strums, phrases, and riffs, and the StringsToucher Engine helps you play individual strings for arpeggios. As for the effects, use the master compressor and equalizer, and insert effects from the four slots. Remember to choose the right sample rate for your project from the supported ones: 44.1 / 48 / 88.1 / 96 kHz. Keep your computer updated to ensure smooth performance. Also, since it has a small memory footprint, make sure you have enough space on your RAM and hard disk. There's no special maintenance required, but if you face any issues, check the official Xhun Audio website for updates and support.
