What Is an IR and Why Should I Care?



A speaker cabinet impulse response or “IR” is essentially a digital audio snapshot of a cabinet that captures the acoustic characteristics of that specific cab, along with the signal chain used to record it — microphone(s), preamp(s), cable, etc. — and the room in which it was recorded. IRs allow you to “virtually” switch between different cab sounds in the same way you would swap physical cabs.



SGT-DI is the first physical Ampeg product featuring IRs and IR loading.



SGT-DI comes with six preloaded Ampeg factory cab IRs, three of which may be replaced with your own:



- Cab Mode includes Ampeg Heritage B-15, Heritage SVT-410HLF, and SVT-810 Squareback IRs.

- User Mode includes overwritable Ampeg SVT-112AV, SVT-210AV, and SVT-212AV IRs

- The Cab Level control enables you to adjust and save the amount of cab IR sound in your signal.

- The IR Off Mode bypasses the IR circuitry altogether.
