IR files - how many ya got?

[Achilles]

On your hard drive and/or in your devices. Individual files, not bundles or packs. Take your best guess.

When I was running just a modeler and plug-ins I'd venture I had about 10K at peak.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

Ugh, does this include the work-in-progress IRs that I haven't deconvoluted or haven't normalized yet?

 

[FuzzyAce]

Other than what comes stock with modelers and software, probably 100? And those were the free ones @Orvillain posted here but I normally just use what comes stock.
Honestly, 20 is enough, and out of those 20 10 would be fine, and out those 10 probably 5 get used regularly... and out of those 5 there are like 2 I'd make work for pretty much everything.

Maybe 3-4 packs and the LT TV mixes from @2112
Still love TV mix7 but for me now its mostly Dynacabs I hate IR Searching and folder diving

 

[Achilles]

Honestly, 20 is enough.

Ya, I mostly only used a handful but I had (among others) a Celestion pack that had 1,000 files in it alone.

A lot, but I pretty much use 4~5 consistently, because I've found what I like.

So 4x12 G12M or V30 with 58,556 different mic positions?

I've been meaning to use yours... will get around to it soon.

Way less than 100 purchased 2nd hand. Just never got the itch and tend to attribute
any deficit in "tone" to myself and not using what I already have as effectively
as I could.

The LT Mix 7 is a go to. That Devin Townsend Blackback IR from the Fractal Gift Of
Tone series is pure fire, too.

"Installed" as in "converted to Space Designer Presets it's around 40k. Quite some more in case I'd count the "hunted" ones.
More than half of the active ones are from Redwirez' Big Pack collection, though.

Right now there's like 5-10 in daily DAW use and 3 in the live rig. Doesn't look much will change with that.

Too f*cking many
