More questions

What is a mandolin impulse response?

Mandolin impulse responses are uncompressed WAV audio files. They contain the digital acoustic fingerprint of a mandolin. Applying these files to the source signal of a mandolin is, today, the best way to get closer to the pure acoustics of an acoustic mandolin with an electric mandolin or with an acoustic mandolin equipped with a pickup.

The IR file must be downloaded into a device capable of applying it to the original signal of your mandolin. To do this, you can use a multi-effects processor from the brands Line6, Zoom or Boss for example, a small effects pedal called an IR loader (Impulse Response loader), or even a DAW software like Ableton and its plugins.

The download of a zip archive will be automatically launched as soon as the payment is validated. It contains several IR WAV files containing the acoustic imprint of the mandolin. Each file was recorded from the same mandolin, but the positioning of the microphones has changed. This implies changes in the sound capture. We advise you to test the different files to select the one that best suits your needs.

No, you have no obligation. You are free to use the files as long as you do not resell them directly. You may not sell these IRs directly to someone. If you would like to specify the use of the files, we would appreciate it. Please read our terms and conditions to know more.
