Kevin,
My apologies if I have missed this elsewhere; are you planning any Celestion Blue or P10Q IRs for this new generation?
Really looking forward to the release - and an opportunity to pay for it!
Regards,
Dan
Just a note to let you know there is a new release of AOMdsp available which has nine input slots. Actually now the default is nine, but you can set it as high as 25 in Settings (for windows) or Preferences (for Mac).Just got the AOM and am working on mixing. There are only six slots for ir's to sit in. How do you add the other three to mix all nine?

...Actually now the default is nine, but you can set it as high as 25 in Settings (for windows) or Preferences (for Mac)...
In the manual it points out (uselessly) that it can be set from 3 to 25. :evilCrap, in the Newsletter I just mentioned 9 instead of that it can go from 9-25. Next time I need to RTFM!
25 slots. Some of you IR mixing junkies will be in heaven!!!
How would someone with comparatively little experience (to your's) know how to select the 'appropriate' IR for a given sound? Each of your samples sounds interesting in its own way. Yet people speak of them in what seems to be a 'this is soo much better than that' and 'its obvious' sort of fashion.
From what I've Tried of the Beta Bogner Cab (Man I wish I was in Town when the JumpStart was Released) these New Cabs really have the Sound I love.
So do you think the Old OwnHammer and RedWirez still stack up against these? I hear Game-Changer Being Tossed around a lot.
Obviously the OwnHammers will get updated as they are updated... But how about RedWirez? Would these Pale by Comparison Now?
I make a conscious effort to not be in the hype game, so I personally never used the 'game changer' terms. I do feel these are a very different animal than the prior/current offerings available because they include the mic/preamp timbre as part of what is offered. I hear/feel/notice and enjoy the difference greatly.
I find the sonic qualities and overall timbre far more musical and pleasing at any volume, but more so at actual gig volumes.
That said, you can take the original OH and RW IR's and make them work with EQ, Low-Cut/High-Cut just as many (most?) have been doing for years.
The major advantage here is that it takes all of that work, expertise in EQ and knowledge and distills it into an IR that is essentially a 'plug-n-play' after you choose your flavor of ice cream. Find the IR that works and go. If want more of this or that, it's often just choosing another version of the same IR and you can go further by mixing different IR's but that is - and remains - more of the advanced type of approach.
That is probably why I like them so much... I know only a little about proper Mic'ing and EQ'ing. So they "Speak to Me" cause they're getting me where I want to go...
I didn't get to do any Live Playing Since Firmware 6 and only had Lower Volume mixing going to 7 and then 8.
Since then I one of 2 things happened to my Favorite Preset the Mesa Boogie Vintage Orange that Started from a Factory Version I tweaked.
1) My New Patches with the JVM+Greenbacks, and my Diezel+Bogner Beta OwnHammers just sound so good it is overshadowed.
2) Changing from 6 to 7 then 8 changed the Mesa Vintage Orange.
I am not sure which it is, but when I hit the Band Room my Mesa Patch was doo doo... Just really muddy...
So I am looking maybe for a whole IR Pack... Maybe for A select Few IR's... Not Sure.
Maybe I need a better V30 Cab???
Any Suggestions?
