03In depth

Lead and clean tones for dense mixes

The developer describes the pack as engineered for lead and clean guitar tones that stand out in a dense mix without harshness. The leads and cleans are presented as separate from the rhythm sounds, with a different process used for each guitar role to reduce frequency buildup and clashing.

The impulse responses are pre-EQ'd and matched to real recording sessions. Bogren Digital says they capture the full chain used in those sessions, which is meant to give a finished tone without further processing.

Using the IRs with your amp or loader

The pack needs an impulse response loader and any amp or simulator to run. Bogren Digital states that its IRs are phase-aligned so they blend well, and that the pack works with software and hardware IR loaders, including the Quad Cortex, AXE FX, Kemper, Mooer, Line6, Boss and Strymon.

If you already use the Rhythm IR Pack, the Lead + Clean set is positioned as its companion, so you can cover rhythm, lead and clean parts within one IR workflow.
