In the previous article, we mentioned that some brands have launched a product that simulates an amplifier with one effector, but sometimes guitarists have difficulty making a choice. At the same time, they want Fender’s Clean Tone, but they also want to put the sound-breaking effect on a Marshall-type amplifier. , at this time you can consider the effect device that simulates three types of speakers to be introduced this time. Extended reading: 2023 Single Speaker Simulation Effector Collection (2) Effector series in which one effector only simulates one speaker. This kind of product that simulates three effectors in one device usually has one thing in common, which is that it is mainly used to become Designed by the effect platform, they do not deliberately simulate High Gain timbres. The timbre range is concentrated from Clean to Crunch timbre, and there is no effect loop design. The simplest way to use it is to place it on the effect The last position of the instrument tray directly enters the PA system at the performance site or the user’s recording interface. In other words, it is really like the concept of connecting your own effects instrument tray to the live speaker input during a performance. 1. Strymon Iridium If we talk regarding the first shot to open the single speaker simulation effects market, Strymon Iridium should be well deserved. In the past, this kind of function only appeared in comprehensive effects, but due to the increase in the number of users of personalized single speakers , Strymon Iridium identified business opportunities early on. Iridium simulates three classic speakers – Fender Deluxe Reverb, Vox AC30 and Marshall Super Lead. It abandons the analog cabinet and uses pure IR function to improve the realism of the sound. It emphasizes the ultra-high sampling rate of 500 milliseconds 24bit 96kHz to make the overall sound high-quality. For the IR performance of other brands, of course, third-party IR files can also be input through the computer. Iridium has also added a Room knob. In the past, the fatal shortcoming of cabinets or IR products was that there was no sense of space. If you use headphones for long-term monitoring, there will be an overly dry and direct impact, which will make your hearing easily fatigued. Room can greatly reduce this discomfort. It can also make the sound fuller. Other special selling points include two-hole stereo output, headphone output, support for expression pedal control parameters, and footswitch function that can switch Presets, allowing users to switch between the current setting and a group of Presets, or switch via MIDI More preset sounds; in addition, you can also use only the speaker simulation or IR functions separately, which is very convenient for interactive use with other equipment. 2. Walrus Audio ACS1 does not allow Strymon to be more exclusive than before. In recent years, Walrus Audio, a popular boutique effector brand, has also launched an almost identical product ACS1. They are different from each other. They are very similar in terms of functional design and interface design. However, following it was launched, it seemed that Lei Sheng Heavy raindrops are small, so following around September 2023, a major update to firmware 2.0 will be made in response to customer feedback. Except for the Marshall type being changed to the more traditional Bluesbreaker, the simulated speakers have the same content as the Strymon Iridium simulation. The IR part cooperates with the well-known sampling company Tone Factor, focusing on using real old cabinet samples, with a more faithful Classic effect. ▲ Because the specifications are so similar, Iridium and ACS1 are often compared. 3. Tech 21 NYC SansAmp GT2 Tech 21 NYC, which has mainly promoted the Fly Rig analog comprehensive effects device in recent years, is actually one of the pioneers of speaker simulation effects. It only uses analog simulation, which is naturally somewhat different from the current digital sound. Tech 21 NYC in 2023 There is also a complete re-engraved version, which can be regarded as a tribute to the tears of the times! SansAmp GT2 is an effect device that simulates Fender, Marshall and MESA/BOOGIE types. Each speaker has three power levels to choose from. The power level can reach very High Gain, which is different from the previous two new generation products. It is special GT2 itself has cabinet simulation and microphone pickup simulation that cannot be turned off, and can switch between three pickup angles. Therefore, although the official website introduced it as a pre-amplifier, when you actually use GT2 in the post-amplifier of a real speaker, the sound is still the same. Slightly strange. ▲ SansAmp GT2 still retains the sound of traditional analogue simulation. The above is the introduction this time. Of course, many manufacturers will also hope to provide more choices and functions to attract consumers, so we will introduce these gift pack-level speaker simulation effects in the following content, so stay tuned.Written by: Puppet Picture source: Official websites of each brand ????Feel the pulse of music that inspires endless inspiration, Musician’s Nest Magazine Vol.18 “Midnight Taipei” published: 2023 Single Speaker Simulation Effects Comprehensive Collection (1) Before Choosing Speaker Simulation What you need to know
