13 Friedman Cabinet IRs Included

The Friedman Editor software includes 13 free Friedman IRs to choose from. The first 3 listed below are the ones which are factory set to the hardware.

1. 6402 57 121
Dave Friedman's favorite 4x12 cab in bare wood. This is Dave's primary workshop cab and has been used to voice his amps since the very beginning. It is fitted with four 6402 Greenback speakers and was captured with an SM57 and R-121 for a nice balance of cut and body.

2. 1960 GREEN 5757121
This cabinet IR is the classic 1960B cabinet from the 80's. Fitted with 20w British Greenbacks. It has a distinctive sonic signature that sings 80's to modern rock tones. Captured with a pair of SM57 on 2 speakers, along with a R-121 to help fill out the body of the sound. These were fed into a set of API preamps with a touch of EQ to enhance the presence.

3. DS112 57 1973
The Friedman Dirty Shirley 1x12 open back speaker cabinet with a G12-50GL features a detailed top end with an airy bass and mid response. Great choice for clean sounds or if you’re looking for a more bluesy sound. Captured with an SM57 and a Soyuz 1973 into API preamps.

FLEXIBLE RIG INTEGRATION

The IR-D’s transparent effects loop allows you to easily integrate your favorite effects with everything from the most straightforward setups to the most complex digitally controlled rigs.

IR-D INTEGRATION

All-In-One
IR-D's surprisingly compact size turns your pedalboard into your entire rig. Run your favorite dirt pedals and filters directly into the IR-D's input as you would with any amplifier and place your favorite time-based effects in the effects loop. Now send all that tone directly to the board with the stunning-sounding benefits of IR technology.

Standalone Preamp
Do you want all the benefits of IR-D's all-tube preamp section but prefer a live cabinet onstage? No problem. Simply connect the effects loop Send to your time-based effects and then to your amps power section. You can still send the IR output to the console to avoid the hassles of live mic'ing the cabinet (see manual for details).

IR-Loader
To utilize IR-D's IR technology independently of the preamp section, just plug your preferred preamp or pedals into its effects loop return. It's a great way to harness all of its power amp and speaker simulation onstage or in the studio.
EXPANDED MIDI CONTROL
IR-D is MIDI-capable. Whether pulling up presets with a pedalboard controller or switching channels with the laptop running your entire show, IR-D is ready for the job. It truly is the perfect marriage of modern control and classic tube tone.
IR-D EDITOR SOFTWARE
IR-D gives you astounding tonal control, but its included Friedman Editor software takes it to a new level. With it, you can tweak each channel’s power amp simulation via the Thump and Presence controls, load your favorite IRs, activate the Boost Lock feature, select loop ON/OFF and save it all to 128 MIDI presets.
