Ca I use Celestion IRs in BIAS FX and if so then are there any recommendations for clean jazz ?

All said in title - I mostly play clean low gain jazzy stuff - Kenny Burrell or even solo fingerstyle - chord melody. Any IR recommendations for that type of music? - I wanna see that the buss is all about....

open back 2x12 for any jangly jazz....just about anything else for dull/warm jazz I would bet!

If you can't bake in the IR's, NADIR is free

Forum software doesnt say which subforum this is, so if its iOS, maybe fiddlicator, but good luck with that

Man... I am clueless - how do you "bake in" IR?
And is there and IR somewhere I can try for free and see if I can run it with BIAS FX?

You would bake it in by adding an ir to Bias Amp Desktop then exporting it to BiasFX

If you don't have Bias Amp Desktop (and/or you want a quicker way to audition IR's) AND you are using BiasFX VST, run something like NADIR right after BiasFX

If you want to go nuts on options, Redwirez free cab lets you learn a lot about mic placement

If you want simple, working and ready to go: https://seacowcabs.wordpress.com/

Just type free cabinet IR in google and piles will come up and religious battles will ensue over which ones are useable vs horrible

@pipelineaudio Thanks! great advice as always.

Hey - funny thing on Seacow - but I actually own 112 Mesa Boogie with Black Shadow C90.
Really like that cab - my jazz amp is 110 - Evans solid state 150W so extra 112 really makes
things cooking (and I have full collection of 110, 112 and 115 Evans own cabs - someone
was selling them and peanuts price so I thought why not). Thanks again!

Edit: Wow. Seacow does not offer any bells and whistles but - wow. Running stereo BIAS FX rig to stereo Seacow cab with slightly different settings. Dream come through. Thanks!
