The Mission
In 2020, I wanted to develop an efficient, no compromise way for me to reamp guitar tones. I’m a guitar player myself, so the task was that I should not be able to distinguish between a real cab and mic combination, with an IR of the same rig.
I made over 2000 phase matched IR’s of my favourite speaker + mic + mic preamp combinations.
Your Tone
If you come into the studio and record with me, then we’ll build a unique sound for you, perfectly tailored to your music.
This is the digital version of exactly that.
- Get the benefit of being able to have a tone engineered for you by a pro and use them in your own productions.
- Use the same amazing tone when playing live and practicing.
Can you hear the difference?

Each mic is captured at 5mm increments from the centre of the speaker cone, all the way to the edge. All mics phase matched. Mic combinations not for the faint hearted!
