    Free Redwirez IR Library • Marshall 1960A • Celestion G12M-25s

    Ah, the legendary Marshall 1960A. Pretty, ain't it? With its grill-cloth glistening in the bar-light as this beast muscles out power chords in an amaranthine haze of smoke, hot lights and adoring fans... this cab positively reeks of rock... the raucous, beer-soaked, unapologetic kind. Oh, and it sounds great, too.

    It was the first cab we ever sampled and is still one of our favorites, so it seems fitting to release these IRs into the wild on Redwirez' birthday.

    I know... we had you at "FREE" but here are some highlights just the same:
    • Loaded with four, well-traveled 25-watt Celestion G12M "Greenbacks"
    • 17 industry standard mics, so explore countless tonal possibilities:
      AKG C414B-ULS
      Audix D6
      Audix i5
      Beyerdynamic M160
      Coles 4038
      Electrovoice RE20
      Heil PR30
      Neumann KM84
      Neumann U47
      Neumann U67
      Neumann U87
      Royer R121
      Sennheiser MD409
      Sennheiser MD421
      Shure SM57
      Shure SM7
      TAB-Funkenwerk SM57

    God’s Cab 1.4

    [​IMG]

    Description
    • Free
    • 700+ Mesa OS IRs (.wav)
    • Axe-FX ready files (.syx)
    • 44.1, 48, and 96 khz sample rates
    • All IRs truncated to 1024 samples (except rooms)
    • Detailed manual
    Why use “God’s Cab” (v1.3)?

    1. It sounds great.
    2. It’s free.
    3. The samples are 100% phase coherent. You can mix any of them together with minimal phase issues.
    4. It comes with Axe-FX ready .syx files.
    5. It comes with unique IR’s that utilize a TS9 (see Tube Screamer section).
    6. The impulses were made with great gear by cool audio engineers.
    7. We will make more if they are popular.

    Signal chain:
    Sine sweep (sent from Allen & Heath Zed R-16) --> 6505+ power section (FX return) --> Mesa OS cab --> various microphones --> Allen & Heath Zed R-16 pre-amp --> Voxengo Deconolver software.

    How to use Impulse Response (IR files):

    Download a plug-in that can emulate a guitar head, or record a guitar head direct in (do NOT plug speaker level outs into your mixer! (Note that a tube amplifier must be plugged into a speaker cabinet at all times, you will need a load box to run it silently).

    Here’s a plug-in that can emulate a guitar head:

    Nick Crow 8505 lead: http://sites.google.com/site/nickcrowlab/

    Download something that can load IR files.

    Try getting LeCab from LePou’s plug-ins. It’s got a lot of great features tailored for guitar cab impulses:

    LePou Lecab: http://lepouplugins.blogspot.com/

    Now open a new FX chain and add Nick Crow 8505 lead first.
    Now add LePou’s Lecab.
    Load a God’s Cab IR - Try 57_1_inch_edge_pres_3.wav as a starting point.

    Axe-Fest Germany 2014 Cab Pack

    [​IMG]

    This was a tough job to do! Not only the capturing, but also converting to all formats (also Standard & Ultra & .wav 24/32bit!), pics, plots, backround infos (read the PDFs!) and bonus Presets (yeah, read the PDFs!)

    Note: .wav files and plots are based on HighRes, NOT UltraRes (of course, you know why ...).

    It`s Freeware and non-commercial, but we think, the package is worthy like a commercial [​IMG]. So, if you like the IRs, a DONATIONwould be appreciated by the Cab Pack Crew [​IMG] Saving for the missing Royer R121 ...[​IMG] [​IMG]

    wow very nice sounding delay!
    Rubbadub
    [​IMG]
    Download: Win VST | Mac VST/AU Bundle

    Rubbadub is a delay effect plug-in designed with versatility in mind. As a dub delay, it can be tempo synced and offers a state variable filter in the feedback line. At the lowest extremes of delay line lengths, Rubbadub becomes a through-zero flanger with a variety of modulation options. Time is split up into three modes (H, M, L) to provide detailed control over delay time, and even finer control is possible with the command key. When modulation is pushed to the limit your sound transforms into a rubbery gelatinous substance that defies description.

    Split-spectrum reverb with independent time controls for low and high bands.

    https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~adam/++/index.php?page=effects&effect=smear
    Smear
    [​IMG]
    Download: Win VST | Mac VST/AU Bundle

    Smear is a granulation effect. It offers the basic parameters of sample-based granular synthesis, only the "sample" is a (maximum) one second buffer of incoming audio. Four grains are created from the input, the sizes of which are random values between the minimum and maximum grain size controls. Individual level and panning controls are provided for each grain.

    Smear also has a feedback control which is the level of the granulated signal that is fed back into the buffer to be further granulated. Thus, as a mult-tap granular delay Smear produces interesting results on a variety of inputs.

    Further, smear offers a selection of the popular window shapes (Gauss, Hann, Blackmann, etc.) plus some non-standard shapes that produce more glitchy or percussive sounds.

    ChucK : Strongly-timed, Concurrent, and On-the-fly
    Music Programming Language



    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Welcome to ChucK!
    what is it?
    : ChucK is a programming language for real-time sound synthesis and music creation. It is open-source and freely available on MacOS X, Windows, and Linux. ChucK presents a unique time-based, concurrent programming model that's precise and expressive (we call this strongly-timed), dynamic control rates, and the ability to add and modify code on-the-fly. In addition, ChucK supports MIDI, OpenSoundControl, HID device, and multi-channel audio. It's fun and easy to learn, and offers composers, researchers, and performers a powerful programming tool for building and experimenting with complex audio synthesis/analysis programs, and real-time interactive music.

    CTR Entropy – Stereo Cross-over Delay

    [​IMG]
    Entropy by CTR is a one of a kind delay plugin! This delay has complete control over delay in each channel separately, but that isn’t what makes this plugin special. Entropy is a stereo cross-over delay. This is a unique type of delay that delays the signal from the left channel and places it in the right, and delays the signal in the right channel and places it in the left. This creates a whole new kind of delay and interesting stereo effects.

    Features:
    • Delay up to 2000 milliseconds
    • Unique Crossover Delay Effect
    • Feedback control
    • Dry/Wet mix control
    • VST Format
    • Available for Windows and OS X

    Free SoundFonts - Free Quality SoundFonts (sf2) - bs-16i SoundFonts
    [​IMG]
    This aim of this site is to provide high quality SoundFonts (virtual musical instruments in sf2 format) that can be played using a midi keyboard connected to a computer, tablet or smart phone. Emphasis has been placed on real or acoustic instruments particularly piano and other favourites for keyboard players (pads, strings, electric pianos, organs and orchestral) but some SoundFonts here also include high quality guitars, some synths and ethnic instruments. There is also a nice GM set for playing general midi files. The SoundFont format sf2 is widely supported by lots of programs/apps and devices.

    Welcome to MFOS! We are going to be continuing to operate Music From Outer Space, building on the analog synth DIY work developed by Ray Wilson. In addition, we have plans underway to improve and extend MFOS modules, including moving MFOS designs into recognized modular synthesizer formats like 5U and eurorack.

    All of the content, humor, documentation and imagery will be retained to support the existing and new generations of synth DIY enthusiasts. Ray's spirit lives on through each of the MFOS projects that get built!

    From time to time, I'll share a story or two about Ray and his life and works, so you'll get to know him a little bit better through my musings.

    Thank you for your continued support of MFOS, and always feel free to reach out with questions or feedback.
