Melda MCabinet

Available from Gear4Music at £86.86 ($110).

Melda MCabinet is a revolutionary guitar and bass cabinet simulator which offers unique parameters for crafting a unique tone. Instead of using thousands of IR files MCabinet gives you a small number of parameters to create virtually infinite number of cabinets. MCabinet can also produce various creative tones a very natural sounding stereo expansion and even double tracking and short reverberation. MCabinets main core is based on a statistical analysis of measurements of actual physical cabinets impulse responses resulting in the profiles. Guitarists are used to browsing thousands of IR files and using one or a few of them in parallel via convolution. While this is certainly possible it is extremely clumsy requires having tons of tiny files (usually commercial) on your computer and selecting the right one is hit and miss process taking lots of precious time. A profile can be made by analyzing a single IR file but the true magic is made by analysing thousands of them. MCabinet extracts whats "common" between all the recorded cabinets as well as how much they differ from each other. The profile itself can often sound better than the original IRs since it avoids the intermediary faulty resonances but the true fun comes from using the MCabinets parameters. First you can alter the cabinet response by various processes such as spectral smoothing and tilting. But the actual creative power is brought by the resonators and wideners. As a result MCabinet is able to produce pretty much infinite number of cabinets and you can control various aspects of these cabinets directly instead of just browsing thousands of files. There is also a dynamic equalizer to fine tune the resulting sound. Please Note: This product comes in the form of a digital download code that will be sent to your email for activation.
