Thank you
@sialtam for helping out!
The mics are SM57, E906, MD421, R121 and recently the M160 was also added to the packs. Some packs have the M160 and some don't depending on if the IR's were shot before I got the M160 mic.
Like Sialtam said there are usually 4 variations of sweetspots per mic per speaker. All of this can sometimes change depending on the actual cab as every cabinet gets a different treatment as is required. Anyways that means a 4x12 pack will have 16 different sounding mic positions per mic and the variety will be way more usable and way more versatile than giving the same amount of options by moving the microphone on the same single speaker which used to be the standard. Placing mics with your eyes is not IMO the way mic positioning is done correctly. It's makes just as much sense as closing your eyes and drawing just by using your hearing as the reference point.
Some mic positions are darker and some are brighter but usually the SM57 positions are all somewhere inbetween cap edge and cone. Also the distance varies depending on the cabinet and how the grill reacts to the microphone placement. It's all work that I've done for you guys. I sometimes shoot way over a 100 IR's per mic per speaker and then I narrow it down to something that's easy to use.
The packs are separated in different folders for different types of users. There's an
Ace folder that has my personal picks of the best IR's in the pack and that's usually small and contains about 20 IR's. Then I have the
single mic folders that include around 16 IR's per mic for those who really want to dial in the mic position. However my signature thing is the
Alloy folders which are essentially two mics blended in together in real life which adds a certain phase realism to the guitar sound. Also the Alloy IR's have been placed specifically to work together which is a completely different type of mic placement technique than the one used for making single mic positions work.
I could write endlessly about the IR's as it is my life's work so please let me know if you want to hear more.
Still I think the best way is for you to try them out. If you're already preferring the stock IR's I made I'm pretty confident you'll love the packs you get as well.
