Free Dynacab pack

[skolacki]

As many other software, upgrading it and having a discount. I´d rather pay for CAB LAB 4 and having the actual DCs from the unit, them buying extra cabs

FAS is a generous company, much more so than their competitors. They are entitled to turn a profit. The Dynacabs in the unit are more than enough really. CL4 is free, and you can choose to buy a cab you’re interested in, rather than that and a bunch of cabs you don’t want. $30 is fair. The people complaining about this remind of how my kids used to act when they couldn’t get their way.

I would just pay the money for the new dyna cabs BECAUSE FAS has never charged me a dime for all the FW upgrades in the last few years that I have owned this awesome piece of gear. Think of it like a tip jar for Cliff's awesome work.

I agree with the people that say you should be able to use the DynaCabs from your Axe-FX III with this product. Yes, it is a free piece of software but last time I checked, I paid over $2,000 for my Axe-FX and it is the third one I've purchased (previously owning an Ultra and II). DynaCabs are the default format moving forward. I don't object to Fractal monetizing their technology, it's just I feel I've already paid for this. I'd like to be able to print from my Axe-Fx without a cab and tweak in the mix. When I mix, I don't even have my Axe-FX driver enabled in my DAW. It just creates problems with my DP/Apollo based system. Agreeing also with another comment, the stock DyanCabs sound good. I'd be willing to pay a modest fee for this, say $15. I'm not a fan of the physical 1960TV for my needs, so I wouldn't pay for this product. A Boogie or Engl 412 or something would be more attractive to me. I imagine these are coming down the road.

I've also bought AxUltra/2/3 - those purchases never included CL packs. CL packs were always a paid additional product afaik (there may have been a freebee giveaway now and then - but generally, a paid product).

The underlying data is actually raw .IR files!

Got it. Does that mean the underlying IR for the dyna cab is longer than 2084 samples?

Yes.

This is definitely the wrong product to take care of the pence so that the pounds will take care of themselves

30 bucks is one cab pack, but once you acquire a taste for it, you'll come back and the transaction will look like this:, especially taking future cab packs into consideration:

After all the time, effort and resources that Fractal Audio puts into improving and adding new features to the firmware for free, I am glad to contribute to their revenue by purchasing some of these packs.

Ditto.

Oh man what a great movie!

 

[Rogerthat]

Yes.

Killer, thank you.

 

[davem77]

Yes.

does ir dynacab (2048 samples)are compatible with axe fx3 mk1 or convert an ultra res?

 

[Oshin]

A pack is $30. Dust the cobwebs off your wallet cheapskate.

As someone who has bought three units and a foot controller over the years and here in Australia they are expensive, I don't think anyone who buys fractal products are 'cheapskates'

You work/run a business and you don't want any money for it? This is simply supply and demand. Not for everyone is 30 dollars a lot of money, especially if the product solves their problem. Just saying.

I kinda did think that being an Axe III owner that I'd be able to load in the factory cabs that I already own. But I guess they're not copy protected in any way, so I understand why I can't. But.... here's the thing - the current packs don't offer the cabs I am interested in, so won't be buying those. And the Cab Lab 4 software is not as good as Cab Lab 3 is when using single IR files. Cab Lab 3 has been my primary IR loader for years now, and very happy to have bought it and I use it all the time.

The number one thing is, it has a browser, which Cab Lab 4 does not. I'm really hoping that is going to be added to Cab Lab 4 in the future.

So right now Cab Lab 4 is promising, but isn't really suited to my needs at present.

Each slot has a Browse button. Or you can simply drag-and-drop from File Explorer onto the desired slot. All the functionality of Cab-Lab 3 is there w/ a better UI except there are only four slots instead of 8. We found no one was using more than four.

Talking about this view....



Which to be honest is about a million times better for browsing and auditioning IRs than this:

This got severely misinterpreted. I said exactly the opposite of "30 dollars is too much" for these new cab packs. My message was that the cab packs are so good that he will likely spend much more than 30 dollars once he tries it out and sees the value in it. I have all 4 currently offered cab lab 4 packs and many more previous Fractal IR packs. Never complained about prices, either.

It's in perspective and I do respect yours. On the other side the DCs, in the unit, and that technology, was free.

I agree with you. The browse function on Cab Lab 3 was easier to use. It’s the only thing I miss in Cab Lab 4

 

[unix-guy]

does ir dynacab (2048 samples)are compatible with axe fx3 mk1 or convert an ultra res?

Can you ask the question again?

I don't think I understand what you're saying?

DynaCabs are supported on all the hardware. Axe Fx III supports 2048 sample DynaCabs. The model of Axe Fx III isn't relevant.

Also, the onboard DynaCabs aren't relative to CabLab which can export UltraRes IRs (that are supported on all current generation hardware).

M160 - That’s my fav mic for guitar… the old grey ones are the best ones.

Yeah me too. It would be great to have those as options in the dyna-cab packs.
