Version Notes
The Recabinet 2.0 impulse responses were captured using new techniques, resulting in a much larger, higher resolution library that recreates the feeling of playing through miked up guitar cabinets with far more detail than version 1.0. With both Recabinet 2.0 Modern and Vintage packs installed, the complete library spans over 1600 impulse responses and 400 megabytes (40 times the file size of Recabinet Modern 1.0.)
