In working through some mix problems I noticed just how different the cab "High Cut" function is from the options available in the filter block. So, I did some tests and attached are some files for anyone interested. "Basics" has a raw clip, just a boosted SLO and cab, along with the DI. In 500Hz and 5000Hz respectively there are files demonstrating the audible impact of the different options: The cab Hi Cut, the filter Hi Cut with both 2nd and 4th order options, and the selectable Low Pass of the filter block with a Q of .707.
What was interesting to me is just how much high frequency energy is getting through the cab blocks high cut function - there's a sizzle present even when you filter all the way down to 200Hz. Obviously no one does that normally so these very low frequency clips are just for analysis. Some might say even 5kHz is too far but with how much is getting by the cab filter, depending on your goal, the cab block just might not be doing the trick.
