OwnHammer Impulse Response Librairies 412-GTR MAR-CB Pre-Rola-M25 Multi Mic Collection
11 June 2016 | 1.81 GB
The OwnHammer Multi-Mic Collection libraries provide a massive array of microphone and placement options for the discerning tone connoisseur that wants micro-level control over their guitar sound. The best power amp, DA/AD converter, cables, and microphone preamps for recording electric guitar are in the chain, and microphone selection and placement can cover all manner of source tones, even with just a single cabinet and speaker. The inherent techniques and overall sampling methodology allows for much diversity in this regard, and the readymade mixes give a fantastic starting point for experts and beginners alike.
THE CABINET
The 412-GTR MAR-CB is based on a 1970's Marshall "checkerboard" 1960B 4x12 cabinet.
THE SPEAKERS
The M-PR25-A and M-PR25-B are based on 1971 16-ohm Celestion T1221 75-Hz cone "pre-Rola" 25-watt G12M’s.
THE MICS AND MIC MIXES
In this library, the speaker cabinet was sampled with many microphones and capture types. For microphones with position numbers 00 through 10, these positions represent movement across the face of the speaker from brighter and closer to center (00) to darker and further out on the cap or cone (10). These numbers do not represent any specific unit of measure and are just sequential arbitrary definitions.
Below are explanations of the mic models and pre-made mix types:
2011C
Based on a DPA 2011C condenser microphone.
AE2500
Based on an Audio Technica AE2500 dual element dynamic and condenser microphone.
ARTIST MIXES
Mix-KK is based on a multi-mic configuration used by songwriter, engineer, and producer Kato Khandwala.
Mix-OH1/2 are based on multi-mic configurations used by OwnHammer owner and operator Kevin Rowe.
Mix-SP1/2 are based on multi-mic configurations created by Scott Peterson.
AUXILIARY
FF-KM is based on far field captures taken with a vintage Neumann KM84 consenser microphone.
FF-TC is based on far field captures taken with an Earthworks TC30 consenser microphone.
The far field captures were taken in a silent reflection free outdoor environment. Captures go from directly on axis (1) to progressively further off axis (5).
Floor is based on a floor plane placed AEA R92 ribbon microphone.
MF is based on a mid field placed AEA R92 ribbon microphone.
Rear is based on a vintage Neumann KM84 condenser microphone.
Room is based on a vintage Neumann KM84 condenser microphone.
Sub is based on a Yamaha SubKick dynamic microphone.
C414
Based on an AKG C414 B-ULS condenser microphone.
E906

FATHEAD
Based on a Cascade FatHead II ribbon microphone.
I5
Based on an Audix i5 dynamic microphone.
KM84
Based on a vintage Neumann KM84 condenser microphone.
M88
Based on a Beyerdynamic M88 dynamic microphone.
M160
Based on a Beyerdynamic M160 ribbon microphone.
MA200
Based on a Mojave Audio MA200 condenser microphone.
MD421M

MIX-HG
A multi-mic combination most ideally suited for high gain guitars, pickups, amps, and tones.
MIX-LG
A multi-mic combination most ideally suited for low gain guitars, pickups, amps, and tones.
MIX-MG
A multi-mic combination most ideally suited for mid gain guitars, pickups, amps, and tones.
PHASE OUT MIXES
The “Phase Out” mix files utilize slight time and phase misalignments that can result in a more pleasing touch, feel, and frequency response than perfectly aligned mics in multi-mic mixes. This alignment type slightly rolls off the high and low end, and provides a more complex and interactive midrange that while still useful in studio applications, can be very beneficial in live sound and individual practice applications.
The PO-Cut mix is more forward and direct, while PO-Fat is more full range and all purpose.
PR20
