Cab Lab Can Defy Physics!

I purchased Cab Lab yesterday, so I was messing around with using different mic impulses for the same cabinet.

Then I did something by accident that rocked my world.

I imported into Cab Lab the Echoplex Preamp impulse that sombody posted in the forum with a V30 4 X12 along with a couple differently mic'd G12T75's.

For giggles, I I started loading differnet levels of each in a mix into the scratchpad and playing around with them. Really cool sounding.

Then I messed around with one of the God Cabs, along with a Manowar, and one of the Vox AC30's that someone posted.

Again pretty magical.

If you want I will post CabLab screen shots so that you can see my recipes and try them out.

Nice job FAS!!!

This is an interesting recipe for an AC-30 cab that has nice presence with a clean amp setting that just totally breaks apart with gain in an interesting 60's garage band kind of way:

Much obliged to the users who posted these IR's. You opened up a whole new sonic palette for me.
 
This one is an interesting blues or rock kind of cab recipe that uses a Man-o-War mix cab along with some of the Kalthallen and God Cabs impulses.

Thanks everyone for posting great IR's. I hope you don't mind me telling people how to combine them to make interesting IR mixes.

Please support your IR makers whenever possible.
 
I use these two cab recipes in my dirty bird preset on the Axe Exchange for a bass preset, but they are equally compelling for some guitar parts as well.

The recipes use the same sources that I posed above.

Please enjoy.
 
Thank you very much for sharing these, and for including the screenshots as well.
I wish more of the gurus here would do it that way :)

I will check it out tonight ..

thanks again
 
The way I do it is I build a preset in Axe-Edit that is just Cab 1 with the shunts to both input and output. That's it.

I select the scratchpad for the cab 1 & save the preset to the AF2.

Then go into Cab Lab load up the files, set the volumes and send the recipe to the Scratchpad. You should be able to hear the cobination.

You can save a new recipe to the scratch pad as you make changes to hear them as an audition.

Then if you want to audition amps, just insert one into the signal chain in that preset you made.
 
I'm still learning about cab lab. Worth every penny, I can't wait for the update. I hope it's during the weekend so I can have time to play with it.

Is there a thread about members posting recipe examples?
