We recently had the pleasure of reviewing and demoing the first of two new Omni pedals from out friends at Hotone Audio, the AC Acoustic Simulator, which was a blast to play, and a surprisingly great acoustic pedal. Today, we’re going to check out the second pedal in this lineup, the IR Impulse Response Cabinet Simulator. This compact-sized simulator delivers organic, precise cabinet sounds for both guitar and bass, with a bright, hi-res OLED screen and easy setup, making it a useful tool in the studio or on the stage.
There’s a lot going on with this little unit, let us tell you: the advanced DSP platform features a high-quality 24-bit A/D/A conversion, which produces great dynamic response at any setting. An internal voltage boost circuit provides great headroom with any standard 9V DC power supply, you have access to 40 high-quality legendary guitar/bass cabinet IRs and a detailed 4-band EQ with flexible frequency range and 12dB max boost/cut. Questions?
Oh yeah, you can also hook up the Omni IR Impulse Response to your computer via the USB jack for firmware updating, or loading and managing different IRs with free PC/Mac software:
There’s even an Aux input and headphone output for practicing and jamming, along with 40 available presets right at your fingertips. The Omni IR provides you with a multitude of options for getting your favorite cabinet sounds without having to lug around an actual cabinet, and it plays nice with pedals as well, so your rig can be customized to suit your setup, regardless of genre, gig room size or even your skill level. With something for everyone, all at an affordable price point, the Omni IR Impulse Response Cabinet Simulator is the answer you’ve been waiting for. To hear a couple of samples from its database and to see some of its functionality, check out our demo below, and see if the Omni IR from Hotone Audio is right for you!
