So, I’ve owned the AX8 for over a year or so And I think I’ve got a pretty good handle on programming sounds that are appealing, though I think that I could use some more help understanding the idiosyncratic resonances of certain cabs and IR’s made by fellow users or companies such as Ownhammer, etc.
I guess my question is, are there any hard fast “rules” for getting cool tones or authentic tones? Or is it primarily trial and error in this digital format.
For instance, I’m trying to program a magnatone amp and can setup. I know research is essential in trying to recreate some of these amps, but I wonder what IR’s would get me in ballpark range not only in the size of speakers department, but the responsiveness, equalization, etc.
Pardon the ignorance and thanks in advance for any info and advice you guys can offer regarding impulse response creation and selection in your patches, especially patches where you isn’t end up using a “stock” or “traditional” IR because you thought it sounded better.
