When people talk about a cab being tight they mean the bass. I'm talking about how quickly it stops sounding when you stop. I originally thought this was all in the gate and amp settings, but I TM'd a lesser piece of gear and it stops so quickly that you hear mostly tone. It also almost completely rounds off the attack. The overall tone is a bit intense in the high mids, but the attack and decay are exactly what I want. None of the stock IRs do these things, I haven't heard any IRs in recordings that do, and I'm reluctant to buy libraries just to see if one does. Does what I've described make sense, and if so does anyone know of an IR that acts this way? I'm mainly looking for a 4x12, though a 2x12 might work, too. Playing style is old-school-ish metal.
