Thought I'd throw this on the interwebs so you can hear the Rectifier in a mix! I really have no idea how to mix anything properly but it was fun doing some chugga chuggas on this amp lol! Really enjoying this amp... this is the Orange channel on modern mode boosted with a Licahtlaerm Aesahaettr :rock:

 
nice man! So really diggin it? The few guys I've talked to that have played/acquired them, have been impressed so far. Not an easy crowd to impress either. Sounds like it's a winner.

Yeah.. I think the amp is a total winner for sure. Really happy with it!

I hated IRs forever until I found a few guys that actually do them right and they don’t sound like bloated messes. Most seem like you have to suck out like 10dbs at 250hz to sound like an actual micd cab.

If you ever get curious check out Josh Middleton, or titan audio.

Cool! Might check them out, thanks for that! Do you find you lose the subtle nuances that a mic will capture and IR's not so much? That's my biggest problem with them. It's that 5-10% difference that makes me inspired or not haha

Yes with most IRs, because they are eqd to death to fit into a mix. So it doesn’t really sound like mic to speaker. They high pass low pass, and suck out all the harsh frequencies. Sometimes creating a low bloated mess. The Middleton ones I found actually sound VERY close to how my micd clips sound. He has early 00s v30s micd up in Mesa cabs and Marshall cabs… etc. my Mesa cab micd with a 57 sounds very very similar to his. He also has pre eqd ones if you so choose.

Yep, this is totally my experience too.

I use wall of sound but have to do a large amount of tweaking to make them usable

Generally speaking, you're going to have to kiss a lot of frogs to find IRs that work for you unless you want the "Youtuber shill" sound

Yeah, and for some of them it works… because most people that make IRs just load up a neural dsp plugin, put all settings to noon then eq the IR.

I like how simple Josh’s are, and he gives a very easy clear breakdown of the pack too where I can go in and be like, this is exactly how I’d mic this and it sounds like the real deal.

Yeah I don't think the IRs in most amp plug ins sound good at all - The Torpedo stuff, Ox, Axe, and Kemper IRs can all be decent but need tweaking

Stuff like Middleton's are the most realistic IMO

I generally make my own IRs or use wall of sound, but ownhammer or middleton's are the easiest to get a more natural sound out of - especially for quickness and ease of use
