CHP ADA 2X12 G12S50 - SUPERCAB IR LIBRARY

ADA 2x12 G12S50 is the Choptones Supercab IR Library created by capturing a Ada* 2x12 with Celestion* G12S-50speakers.

It is an extensive and systematic capture created with 11 microphones, 8 to 16 positions each microphone and multiple Mic preamps, for more than 300 IRs globally.

In the 80-90's it was really easy to find a couple of this amazing cabs on several stages. Really nice and balanced tone, a must for old guitar tone lovers. The speaker, perfect match for the 80's Ada 2x12 cabinets, it's a 50 Watt Celestion speaker with a boost on the high-mids.
Captures are performed with a motorized mic stand in order to have consistent measurements across libraries.

SPECIFICATIONS

The microphones used during the capturing session are:

• AKG* C414.
• Audio Technica* 2035.
• Beyerdynamic* M160.

Every microphone has been moved to 4 different horizontal position (Cap, Cap Edge, Cone and Cone Edge) and two distances, for a total of 8 IRs each.

For some microphones, the set of 8 measurements has been repeated with the microphone off axis (45 deg).

All the measurement set has been repeated twice, with two different Mic preamps: a Neve* 1073 and a German preamp.
