The Impulse FAQ/Tutorial Thread

I just set up my Adobe Audition 3.0 for VSTs and Impulses after finding this thread and doing some googling. It's a ton of fun, thanks for the FAQ/thread.

And, thanks for sharing your collection, mnemonic.

+1 for the sticky.

 

Hey guys,

Can anyone rec a good bass plugin compatible with pro tools m audio?

I got my impulses working perfectly in TL space but my mix would sound so much better if I had a nice bass in it.

Thanks!

 

^ IK Ampeg SVT....?

 

I just downloaded that. It pretty nice.

 

Dunno, if anyone has been through this. I set everything up on Cubase like this thread says, and got some great tones on my guitar. However, when I mix down to a stereo track and try to play this wav file on Audacity it sounds terrible! all fizzy and over-distorted.

What am I doing wrong?

 

So you can hear your track in Cubase fine, but when you play it in Audacity, it sounds overly distorted? Is your output volume clipping? Are you rendering your track properly? I dunno ... need more details ...

 

i feel like an idiot, the moment you mentioned clipping, i went in and checked and it was clipping like crazy. i turned the overall level down and it sounds great now. thanks.

what a n00b mistake.

 

Does anybody have any experience with McDSP Revolver? I just tried uploading a few impulse responses in PTLE 8 using my POD as the pre amp and the tone still sounds terrible. I turned off the pod's cab sim and it still sounds fizzy and weak. Any tips guys?

 

Anyone?

 

Question: I've been trying to impulse my Djent tone, but nothing seems to come through as well as my Pod Cab sim.

what am i doing Wrong?

this is with just experimenting, doing a sweepthrough with each and every mix sim, and catharsis's sound the best to my ears, but non of them sound good enough.

does this mean my amp setting is flawed? or have i just found something that works for me with the Pod Preset?

i use it, and i lose a lot of my usual "forward-leaning" feel to the tone.

 

...yerp. lol

i'm guessing i shouldnt, but thats the thing, my monotioring is bad so it's damn near impossible to tweak it as I'm working with it.

 

yeah, i got these new SEXEH monitors working, so i don't have to have headphones smashed against my head 24/7 either. go me.

 

I went to download it and my code was YAY3

Also the sneap plugins link is expired

 

Glad i was bored and started clicking around today, I ran across this and tried it out on some of my POD recordings in Logic and they instantly made the guitars sound more like a real miced cab and life like. Very awesome, humans are starting to get pretty damn start to be thinking of shit like this hahaha

 

In December, I toured NASA's Plum Brook facility, which has the largest vacuum chamber in the world - 100 ft diameter and 122 ft high. If you spoke, the reverb lasted a good 30-45 seconds (it was near impossible to have a conversation). Anyhow, I'm trying to imagine what the reverb impulse response would be like for that!!!!!

 

A noob question....when working Impulses in keFir, y turn off my POD Farm cab, but this makes me loose distortion and only a clean signal comes through.

I understand I'm supposed to turn off the cab sim in POD Farm, so how do I fix that issue?

Thanks
