Sound Design Overview

The Low Tuned Essentials wave audio format impulse response library is based on an OwnHammer proprietary cabinet captured and mixed in such a way as to complement extended range and heavily downtuned guitars for use in contemporary music styles and production. While not exclusively useful within these parameters, the primarily intended application is for guitars with the lowest pitch being B1 and below. When increasing the unit weight of a string in combination with down tuning, the inherent resonance of the string changes tonality. In simple terms it gets muddy; where the thicker the string and the lower the pitch, the more it builds. The IR's in this pack combat this by shaping the tone in such a way as to reduce that mud, yet provide additional support for lower fundamentals so that tones are clear and detailed, without being harsh or thin, while still full bodied and retaining authority.
