OwnHammer - Impulse Librairies - 412-GTR MAR-CB MIX Modern-Speaker-Collection

The OwnHammer Studio Mix Libraries have a specific goal in mind – to implement mic choice, mic placement, and mic amplification in a way that is most suitable to a specific cabinet and the types of speakers, amps, and tones most commonly associated with it. Once the configuration is set, it is static for all speakers loaded in that specific cabinet. Both traditional and non-traditional speakers to this configuration then provide the variable shades of sound beyond mic choice and mixed blending. With different cabinets comes the possibility for changes to the configuration, and such are the OwnHammer Studio Mix Libraries.

THE CABINET
The 412-GTR MAR-CB is based on a late 1970’s Marshall 1960B 4x12 guitar cabinet. This specific model of cabinet is often referred to as a “checkerboard” cabinet due to the type of grill cloth used.

THE MICS
CND 70
Based on a close mic’d Microtech Gefell UMT70S large diaphragm condenser microphone.
DYN 57
Based on a close mic’d Shure SM57 dynamic microphone.
DYN 421
Based on a close mic’d Sennheiser MD421 dynamic microphone.
RBN 121
Based on a close mic’d Royer R121 ribbon microphone.
ROOM
Based on an ambiently placed Microtech Gefell UMT70S large diaphragm condenser microphone.

THE MIXES
Please Note – none of the mixes in this library contain the “Room” capture, which can add dimension and bark to low and mid gain tones respectively. Adding this ambient character can pull a guitar track back from the forefront of the sonic array and is why it is left to the user to blend in to taste.
