I was just testing an IR I shot using my standard DAW signal chain and exporting it back out to the AxeFX. It also contains an ML Sound Labs Cab from Pack 20 and a room mic from the CabIR.eu Orange pack. I added the room mic at -5dB in a stereo UltraRes cab block. Both cabs are panned dead centre. The room cab just seems to remove some of the harsh frequencies and balance things out a little for my taste.
DAW Chain used to capture the second IR (run in series in a second UR cab block) Slate Tape (2") > Slate Virtual Channel (BritN) > Slate Mic Preamp (FG-73) > Slate FG-N EQ with a high pass at 75hz and +1.8 on the high shelf.
The overall EQ curve on the resultant IR showed that the high shelf also scooped around 100hz which cleared up the mud and there was a boost in the air frequencies also.
I kind of liked what both of these did so I thought I'd share.
The first 2 clips are just some wet clips of my playing. I love how they sound clean, open but with some nice chunk and crunchy in the high end but not harsh.
This clip is with delay and verb turned off but the Slate EQ and Room cab both on.
This clip is the same but with No Slate
Finally this clip has the Slate IR but no Room IR
Anyway, I thought I'd share here just in case anyone else finds it useful.
Cheers
Spence
