A small petition for IR makers - no room in the IR please!

[aziz]

Please, do not mic the IR's so that there's lot of room in the IR, if the intended IR is to be used as an ultrares IR in the Axe. If I was recording a song with a regular amp, I can't think of any reason to record with a very short gated reverb baked in to the recording right from the start. A proper room sound is a different thing, but unfortunately that is not possible with current IR lenght in the Axe. (But do save the long IR's for Axe3!) :encouragement:

The room can be eliminated by switching to standard res IR, but that loses the benefits of ultrarez.

IMO, the IRs of close cab-micings are never longer in the time domain, as Ultra-Res supports. So, ... the only problem with "truncated room verb" could happen in ambient & far-field positions, sometimes also in "rear cabinet" positions ... but normally, most of the time, close micing ist wanted and there you should not get into this problematic... ?!
