Redwirez Is Shutting Down

[JoKeR III]

So, if you get them for free, is it OK to share them? Asking for a friend

To the best of my knowledge, however limited it may be, the Copyright is still in place and you are bound by the EULA (End User License Agreement).

Wouldn't, you mean, right?
I agree.

Bummer - I was searching for an existing customer's email address as I wanted to purchase the Bass cabs.

Thanks

If you purchased anything from them in the past, you have access to any of their products free of charge now.

Sad, the first high quality commercial IR's available as I remember, and we've been using them since they were released. With all the positions available, they've the closest thing available to our mic locker if desiring a high degree of placement control.

Thanks Mike, and sorry to hear about the hand injury!

One of the few IR makers to shoot Weber speakers. Been using his excellent Weber Blue Dog IRs for at least 6-7 years now....

Also one of the few Dual Showman cabs with JBLs if I remember right.

Technically no, unless he states otherwise. I'm basing this on the fact that you need to be a past customer and am assuming they're only available as a parting gift to those customers. If the owner wanted to give them out to everyone you wouldn't need to enter your purchase ID to download them. There's always the possibility that he will start making them again.

Yeah agreed. Had they released more products and somewhat continuously, it'd have probably generated more interest in the brand.
And while it's great to have the precise control of the mic position, the sheer number of IRs makes it a pain to scroll through. It's absolutely daunting for someone who might be new to this stuff, so it might have turned newer customers away from the brand. Also, it's great to have a selection of good mixes at hand too, rather than making each mix on your own.

The comprehensive coverage of mic positions for each mic would make these the perfect set to base a software IR selection tool like MIKKO on. I wish more IR sellers would be this comprehensive....

Have you looked at Redwirez mixIR3?

 

[Joe Bfstplk]

Have you looked at Redwirez mixIR3?

I have it. Haven't used it very often since getting the AxeFX3 a few years ago....

 

[Dave Merrill]

Have you looked at Redwirez mixIR3?

Is that a free download for past customers now too?

 

[Brewce]

Is that a free download for past customers now too?

Yes. Everything.

 

[JoKeR III]

Is that a free download for past customers now too?

Only one way to find out.

 

[Dave Merrill]

Only one way to find out.

After work, probably tomorrow.

I'd say the v4 era OwnHammer libraries are quite similar in that regard. However the distance between the mic and the speaker doesn't change in them.

I believe with raw WAV format packages, people want simplicity. It gets way too complicated to deal with otherwise. This level of minute control works better with visual IR loaders, which thankfully Redwirez did introduce with the mixIR3 modules.

This. mixIR3 is extremely underrated.

I might still be on mixIR2, then. . Will have to give it a look....
