It's on the to-do list.
Cliff, what about non-MP factory cabs?

a football hit it when I wasn't looking and snapped it sideways, ouch. Fun fact, I taped it and finished the game, but that was not fun.Did someone pull it too hard?
Thanks for the response. When you say “IRs as computer files,” are you referring to .syx files?We ran into some hurdles on that one. We needed permission to distribute the IRs as computer files, which would be the only way to get them to you. Some of the providers were cool with this, others not so much.
It's funny you ask that because the other day I loaded User 1 and 2 with non-MP versions of the factory cabs. Then I spent about an hour doing blind A/B tests. Now I like to think I have some good ears and I couldn't hear a difference. The waveforms don't even look all that different. Guitar speakers are essentially minimum phase devices so an MP transform has minimal effect.Cliff, what about non-MP factory cabs?
And if so, would there be a way to replace the MP factory ones with non-MP ones 1-to-1 (thus not requiring user cab slots)? Of course knowing that presets with 2+ cabs would need to be auditioned.
You could run into a few more when shooting FF IRs in that indoor sports stadium.We ran into some hurdles on that one.
Couldn't you just replace the factory IRs with them and add a MPT switch in the cab block?We ran into some hurdles on that one.

No as this would require storing the entire 8K IR.Couldn't you just replace the factory IRs with them and add a MPT switch in the cab block?
By 8K you mean sample lenght?No as this would require storing the entire 8K IR.

In this case I don't get it, why is that different than loading a raw or auto-trimmed IR in a user cab slot?
If I'm not asking too much
And also we already have an mpt switch in the cab block (sort of): smoothing parameter set to a non 0 value.
Yes I know, what I mean is that if you load a non-mpt IR and apply smoothing (even 0.01) the IR gets minimum phase transformed, just look at the align graph and it'll be evident.Smoothing (De-Phase) is different from MPT.
It decreases dips and peaks.
This seems in contrast to what you said here: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/non-minimum-phase-irs.146046/#post-1726942It's funny you ask that because the other day I loaded User 1 and 2 with non-MP versions of the factory cabs.

Guitar speakers are essentially minimum phase devices so an MP transform has minimal effect.
Then I tried A/B comparisons using mixes. Again I couldn't hear any difference and the takeaway was that non-MP is a pain in the a** because you have to manually align every time you change an IR.
