Description

The Jensen Blackbird 10-40 IR Library for TH-U SuperCabinet from Overloud is a SuperCabinet IR library that captures the powerful and natural tones of the Jensen Blackbird 10″, 40W Alnico speaker in 1×10 and 2×10 open-back cabinet configurations captured by 19 microphones for a whopping 1216 total impulse responses. Featuring a speaker with an exclusive reinforced Alnico magnet and a copper-wound voice coil, this IR library is a great choice for dynamic vintage tone, which combines warm tight bass with classic sparkle and chime, suiting both clean sounds and modern high-gain applications equally well.

The 19 mics were used to record in four different horizontal positions, two distances, and two angles for a total of 16 IRs each. Designed exclusively for the SuperCabinet IR processor, a program which makes it easy to blend and create custom cabinet tones and export IRs in WAV format for use in external IR loaders and modelers, the Jensen Blackbird 10-40 IR Library is an ideal choice for those seeking solid, firm bass, open midrange, and airy detailed highs in a versatile and affordable package.

Note:

You must own TH-U SuperCabinet to use this library.
Made for The SuperCabinet
The Jensen Blackbird 10-40 IR library is designed exclusively for use with the TH-U SuperCabinet program, which can either be used as a standalone IR library or with the TH-U plug-in program. SuperCabinet allows you to:

  • Graphically browse the IRs in the library
  • Blend them together
  • Craft new cabinet tones with the unique multiband mode
  • Use the IR in the software
  • Export the IRs in WAV file format, compatible with software IR loaders and all the major hardware modelers
A New Speaker with a Vintage Voice
This is a systematic capture of a Jensen Blackbird 10″, 40W speaker, installed in two different enclosures:

  • 1×10″ open-back cabinet
  • 2×10″ open-back cabinet

The Blackbird 10-40 is a completely new 10”, 40W speaker, with a 1.25” copper-wound voice coil and the exclusive reinforced-alnico-magnet design that Jensen introduced with the highly successful Blackbird 12-40. The Jensen Blackbird 40 speakers brilliantly combine vintage dynamic sensitivity, upper midrange attack, and the openness of traditional alnico speakers, with a tighter bass foundation and a refined top end that suits even modern, higher-gain applications.
