Hi,
I'd like to experiment with farfield IR's get more of an amp-in-the-room feel to live tone. I play high gain/metal and I've read SP's old post on Speaker Resonance and plan to use the OH Mesa Recto Cab (V30) as my NF cab (from his pack, not the one included in the Axe).
Question is, do I need to match the cab? For example, find a farfield IR of a Mesa V30 - or does it not matter?
Also, does this work particularly well for high-gain/metal or will it sound muddy? I can understand how effective this would be for Marshall rock tones/leads and Fender like cleans - but something tells me the FAS Modern might end up sounding a bit muddy, especially if you reduce the NF by -6db as suggested in SP's thread. (I would just try and see, but I'm at work and interested!)
Hope you can help!
