RELEASE NOTES
based on our massive sounding Mesa Boogie™ Standard 4x12 angled (A) cab. This iconic oversized cab sounds huge and is THE standard for high-gain tones. This cab is loaded with it’s original mesa-spec Vintage 30 speakers (8 ohm versions). When compared to the straight (B) cab, this angled cab offers a more forward midrange crunch. Check out the Full Stack pack for 50-50 cab blends - the best of both worlds!
This IR pack is a part of our new XR IR Collection [XR = extreme realism], which is the result of countless hours of IR experimentation, development, and A/B testing. The XR Collection is our latest and most accurate line of impulse responses that we have ever created. When compared to the real mic’d cab using the same amp, it is difficult to discern any difference. We are proud to say these IRs deliver the truest representation of a cab in tone, feel, breakup quality, and harmonic information when pushed. Unlike our previous tone-matched IRs, these IRs are universal and can be used on any platform that can load IRs and are not dependent on using specific amp settings to sound correct. A Tone Factor Starters folder with 10 hand-selected IRs from the pack is included to help you get started quickly.
