Colt and Jason interview David Hislop and Kenyon Reed at ‪@Tone_Factor‬ about the newest Impule Responses (IRs) they created for the ACS1 Amp + Cab Sim's 2.0 firmware update. They go deep in discussing what IRs are, why amp emulation is so popular, working on new custom IRs specifically for the ACS1 and more.
Visit www.tonefactor.com/ACS1 to explore their new XR IR Collection and see all of the complete IR packs with more microphones and placement options.
For firmware 2.0 you'll find:
• Improved tube-driven breakup. Higher gain and more saturation across all three amp models.
• New organic & and more lively IRs created by David Hislop and Kenyon Reed at Tone Factor that capture the feel and air movement using the actual Amps that the ACS1 is modeling.
• Enhanced Boost with up to +4dB more gain
Update your ACS1 now for free at www.walrusaudio.io.
*Note - To update, you’ll need a Micro USB data cable and a computer using a Chrome browser.
Amps used to capture the IRs:
Dartford - based on a 90’s UK-made AC30 6TB with Blue Alnicos
London - based on a Marshall JTM50 Tremolo Bluesbreaker 2x12 combo with UK-made 6402-cone G12M Greenbacks
Fullerton - based on a Vintage 1966 Fender Deluxe Reverb with its original Jensen C12NA

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Walrus. My ACS1 sounds absolutely unreal with the new update & ToneFactor IRs and I couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic job Walrus - it's a new pedal in the best way.

Great work on the update, and can't agree more that the 90's made in England AC30s, this is heresy, maybe are better than getting a 50/60 year old vintage one. Great quality builds, much more consistent, and has nearly the same sound. Maybe even a bit throatier. Also love the fact that it's a 57 and a 121. If you run those in stereo you can blend them in very, very close to the way a studio will mix at mixdown. Awesome stuff.

Tried these on my Iridium and Tonex and compaired them to others and the EX IR's are above the rest IMO.

What are the EX IR’s? Do you mean someone else that’s not Tone Factor

Hey Walrus guys, could you please help me? I updated and bought IRs pack AC30 and prosonic. Im very new to this, which file should I load to AB and C? I opened IRs folder and there a lot of different files, not sure what to load and where. Thank you.

IRs can feel a little overwhelming when first buying packs. We recommend you start with the stock ones that Tone Factor just made for this specific update. They were made with the ACS1, for the ACS1. Once you start to explore other ones, its just a trial and error of what sounds good to your ears. It doesn't matter which cab goes into the A, B, or C slot. Just totally up to you and how you want to access what cab!

@walrusaudioeffects I already bought them, so I want to use that pack

@@oleksandrk4853thanks for checking out the IR pack! For the ACS1, use the 48k format. Check out the manual for guidance on how to go about auditioning IRs. There is a “Starters” folder with 10 hand picked IRs from the bundle - this is a good place to start. Beyond that, try different microphones at position “3” to see which mic you like. Adjust the mic position or processing type from there. Try the “enhanced” and “top boost” versions as well to see what your favorite is!
