So has anyone else heard of, or better yet tried Recabinet with their recording rigs? I've been hearing good things about this software, and if it sounds better than the cab emulations in PODfarm it could definitely be worth having.
Recabinet - Album quality guitar tone, direct.
Recabinet Complete 2.0
Recabinet Complete 2.0 is our flagship product, and includes the entire Recabinet Modern and Recabinet Vintage libraries, for a total of nearly 2000 impulse responses of cabinets and microphones spanning the 1950s to the present day. The entire 2.0 library was sampled at Fox Force Five Recorders in Los Angeles using a pristine analog signal path into world class A-D converters (API 3124 mic preamps into Apogee Rosetta converters.)
Cabinets
* “Tangerine 4×12” - Orange 4×12
* “1960 4×12″ - Marshall 1960AV 4×12
* “Excel 4×12” - Randall RS412XLT100 4×12
* “Ghandi 4×12″ - Mesa Standard 4×12 (newly resampled for version 2.0)
* “Motown 1×15″ - Ampeg Portaflex B15N bass amp.
* “Blackface 4×10″ - Fender ‘65 Super Reverb 4×10
* “Tweed 1×12″ - Fender ‘53 Deluxe 1×12
* “Green 4×12″ - Marshall 4×12 with Greenbacks
* “Zodiac 2×12″ - Selmer Zodiac Twin 30
* “Top Boost 2×12″ - Vox AC30
Microphones
* “57″ - Shure SM57 - industry standard dynamic microphone, the most popular microphone for guitar recording.
* “545″ - Shure Unidyne III 545 - sought-after vintage predecessor to the Shure SM57, known for its smooth response, appreciated by those in the know.
* “121″ - Royer 121 - legendary modern ribbon mic, extremely popular in modern recordings.
* “409″ - Sennheiser MD409 - legendary vintage side-address dynamic microphone, used on many modern and classic recordings.
* “421″ - Sennheiser MD421 - legendary dynamic mic, used on many modern and classic recordings.
* “i5″ - Audix i5 - modern industry standard dynamic microphone, for a full-range, aggressive response.
* “D6″ - Audix D6 - modern kick drum mic, great for getting the low “cabinet rumble” tone as a blend-in with your primary tone.
* “U87″ - Neumann U87 - legendary condenser microphone with incredibly detailed, musical response.
* “RTA” - DBX RTA reference microphone, known for its perfectly flat response and high SPL rating. Useful especially for Fractal Audio AxeFX users, and cool for everyone else!
Bonus - Recabinet Modern 1.0
Recabinet Complete 2.0 also includes the entire critically acclaimed Recabinet Modern 1.0 library, which includes the following additional cabinets:
* “Ghandi” - Mesa Standard/Oversize 4×12
* “Angora” - Line 6 Vetta 4×12
* “Igor” - Krank Krankenstein 4×12
* “Genzie” - Genz Benz G-Flex ported 2×12
* “Sterling” - Marshall Hand Wired 4×12 (late 1960s reissue)
* “Damien” - Marshall 1936 2×12
* “Kirby” - Carvin 4×12 British Series
* “Manatee” - Ampeg SVT 8×10 Bass Cabinet (using Ampeg SVT Pro Classic power section)
* “Trapezoid” - Roland Micro Cube (using native power section)
These cabinets were sampled using the Universal Audio 610 tube mic preamp, with the following mics:
* “57″ - Shure SM57 - industry standard dynamic microphone, the most popular microphone for guitar recording.
* “i5″ - Audix i5 - modern industry standard dynamic microphone, for a full-range, aggressive response.
* “4060″ - Audio Technica 4060 - modern high-SPL condenser microphone, for warm, full-bodied tone.
* “D6″ - Audix D6 - modern kick drum mic, great for getting the low “cabinet rumble” tone as a blend-in with your primary tone.
Since this is a stand-alone plug-in, I'd also be able to run the direct out from my Mesa-Boogie into my M-box and record it w/Pro Tools in addition to all the amp models in PODfarm.
Check out some of the audio samples on the site...it sounds pretty good, potentially better than anything I've heard w/PODfarm or Amplitube alone...
