Use room reverb so it doesn't sound like you stuffed your head where the mic is on a cab.
For me, lower volume.
Same here. I have some DT-880s that are semi-open technically, but it’s enough to make it not so claustrophobic. As others have mentioned, a little stereo reverb of any variety is huge as well.
For fatigue specifically, I find the high end is what really gets me. Much like putting your ear right inline with a guitar cab, you get all those treble freqs emphasized with a pair of headphones. To compensate, I use darker versions of my favorite IRs or move the mic a notch or two away from the dust cap when using a dynamic cab. This makes it feel a bit more like “standing” off axis from a cab.
Initially, I built a small arduino-based 6 button midi controller that I velcroed to the side of the NC for quick access to more presets when I had it on my desk. Eventually, I realized the 4 did fine for how I was using it. Fun project though!
I haven’t used it in a while, but I’ve used the IR Utility in space designer to shoot IRs of both my real cabs and from other devices. Getting the routing right is probably the hardest part. Aside from that, you are just shooting a 10s sweep with mostly default settings in the utility. Then just convert the resulting track to wave and you are good to go.
I got you, fam. Put on open back headphones, then unplug them and play through a guitar cab. Loud.
I did something similar with a Waveshare Zero for the Tonex One and my MIDI controller! It was fun and a colleague got to 3D print a case for it. There’s a GitHub project for the software which worked really well also. Ultimately it was fun getting it together but too many loose parts. I had a cable from the controller to a HX Stomp and Bluetooth connection to the Tonex, and set it up to toggle Snapshots on Stomp and presets on Tonex.
Thanks! I’ll dive into it when I have time.
I will take a look later but I doubt I’ll experience anything different. That’s worth a feature request imo
You are not alone. This drives me insane. At least take away the node if we can’t actually use it.
Thank you! It's good just having a sanity check on this one. (Next up: searching/ filtering/ ordering downloaded captures...)
That Transparent Blend block is great! It’s how I managed to get my WDW setup running the way I wanted with multiple parallel effects.
It's let me pull a lot of routing stunts on single lanes that would otherwise have clobbered two - and looked more confusing to boot. It's also an effective way to get USB audio inline, if you happen to have a class-compliant audio interface hanging off the USB port, which is essential for iOS MIDI Guitar tomfoolery. (Ahem, Helix/ Stadium.)
Woah, that would be insanely powerful... but a UI/ presentation nightmare I imagine. This is where I assume the Fractal "grid" approach excels, although I personally never managed to get that far.
