ANGEL 4X12 NEOCREAM - SUPERCAB IR LIBRARY

Angel 4x12 NeoCream is the Choptones Supercab IR Library created by capturing a Engl* E412VSB 4x12 with Celestion* Neo Creamback speakers.

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.

The cabinet is slanted front, closed back, solid Siberian Birch plywood construction, a standard for metal guitarists and not only. The speaker, born the get the magical tone of a traditional Creamback with the half of the weight, the G12 NEO Creamback keeps great low end and punchy midrange with a refined top end provided by a Neodimium magnet.
Captures are performed with a motorized mic stand in order to have consistent measurements across libraries.

DISCOVER THE ENTIRE COLLECTION

The SuperCabinet offers a wide collection of IR libraries, created by selected sound designers like Choptones and The Cab Factory.
Any single library in the collection is created after an extensive sampling and editing work, seeking the perfection in every capturing step.

MADE FOR THE SUPERCABINET

The library is created for the TH-U SuperCabinet, which allows to:

• graphically browse the IRs in the library.
• blend them together.
• craft new cabinet tones with the unique Multiband mode.
• use the IR in the software.
• export the IRs in .wav, compatible with the software IR loaders and all the major hardware modelers.

SPECIFICATIONS

The microphones used during the capturing session are:

• AKG* C414.
• Audio Technica* 2035.
• Beyerdynamic* M160.
• Electrovoice* RE20.
• Neumann* U87.
• Royer* 121.
• Sennheiser* MD21.
• Sennheiser* MD421.
• Sennheiser* MD441.
• Shure* SM7.
• Shure* SM57.

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.
