OTTO WAR YALL 1960 CAB
Regular price $24.99 Sale price $19.991960 WAR YALL - One of my favorite cabs in the room to play, T75's, all 90's. Full, thick and sounds absolutely brutal when mic'd properly. With all the complaining about this cab & speaker being "garbage", I wanted to give it proper respect and create IR's that sound the way this does in the room: Devastating. This cab is one of the favorites of existing owners of OTTO CABS Vol I.
This is a single cab from OTTO CABS Vol I, which is my personal collection of some of my favorite cabs, meticulously & exhaustively captured to give a guitar tone ultimate power, depth, weight & clarity. The work was not done until I could sit in front of my studio monitors and get an unparalleled sound / vibe experience as I do with my cabs in the room pushed by electrified iron & glass. Do not expect these to sound like other IR's. Like the Eleven Eleven, I wanted to feel the air move - I grew tired of the sound of a mic'd cab sitting in the other room. So, after 6 months of relentless a/b testing, shootouts among 25+ mics, 12 different power amps, and landing on a Neve signal path ... borderline obsession... produced an unbridled heavy. A true cab experience coming out of your DAW. With each cab you get 17 mic capture selections and 5 "sweet spots" and varying positions per mic capture, all perfectly phase aligned so you can blend and mix in any dual IR loader.
17 mic captures, 5 positions each - exhaustive and yet easy to navigate and find a great tone right away.
Limitless Phase coherency - Every position and has been phase aligned to perfection for blending with each other at any position, blending with other minimum phase cab IR's. Mix, match & stack for towers of tone without getting messy.
InteRvaled IR's ™ - I refused to stop with just accurate, or heavy - IR's must have clarity, articulation and sound pristine when playing power chords without congestion. Impact on chugs and separation when playing intervals is near top of the list of requirements when choosing a tone to play through or print to my session. How is this achieved? Fine tuning every part of the process and playing/testing by ear, then hand selecting each.
Big Iron Transformed ™ - Power amps that imbue just the right amount of push, texture and harmonics are what make Otto Cabs "secret sauce". Testing thoroughly 12 different power amps, I landed on the one that has "it".
Analog Mojo - You've heard it a million times, but there's a reason for it: analog just gives that warmth, life and something extra that makes audio feel organic - so I landed on running the capture process through Neve® imbued flavor, finely tuned and adjusted.
In finality, most of all, to bear the name Otto, it must grip you and feel great to play; absolutely crush or it doesn't make the cut. Every IR capture was tested and played through to ensure it hits you with a wave of aural violence coming out of your studio monitors.
HOW TO USE: Load into any IR loader placed after an amp sim, use with an Amp di + load box, modeler etc.
