Carstens Grace 100

🅰️2️⃣ ready! Get the ✨full✨ Carstens Grace 100W "MultiLoad" pack here: 👉 https://ko-fi.com/2dornam/shop 🙏 Ladies & gents, it's my pleasure to present the Carstens Grace 100W: Billy Corgan's (The Smashing Pumpkins) signature amp developed in close collaboration with Carstens Amplification. The Grace is a 100W, single-channel amplifier with a massive, wide open 3-dimensional tone, very high harmonic content offering articulate high gain & exceptional response to changes in guitar volume & attack. It can go from clean, crunch to overdrive with the turn of the guitar's volume or simply using a lighter touch. ℹ️ “MultiLoad” - what’s this about? The cabinet (or load) a tube amplifier interacts with has a considerable impact on the tone & feel. For this pack, I used 2 iconic cabinets and reamped all settings with each cab. ℹ️ Summary The full pack features a Carstens Grace 100W (EL34 loaded) amp captured using 2 iconic cabinets loading down the amplifier. Since this specimen has no FX loop, the pack only includes AMP captures; no isolated preamp (PRE) or isolated poweramp (POW) captures included this time around. ✅ All profiles calibrated ✅ 2 iconic guitar cabs used as loads (no reactive load): 🟣 Mesa 4x12 OS Straight 🟣 Marshall 4x12 1960BV with Marshall G12 Vintage speakers ✅ DI and MIC-ed up flavors for each AMP profile ✅ NAM A2 ready ✅ Extended, anti-aliasing signal leveraged during reamping ✅ High-fidelity signal chain used during reamping ✅ Stompbox / OD profiles included ✅ Kikusui PCR1000MA used at reamping for ultimate consistency ✅ IRs included: Mesa 2x12, Mesa 4x12 OS, Marshall 4x12 1960BV The full pack includes includes: • 100 x DI AMP head models • 500 x MIC-ed AMP head models • 60 x OD pedal profiles • 15 x IRs (Mesa 4x12 OS, Marshall 4x12 1960BV, Mesa 2x12) ✅ Efficiency Streamlined for users across platforms AMP & POW profiles offer 6 flavors: • DI = raw poweramp <-> cab signal tapped with a DI box, no Microphone • SM57 = full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with a Shure SM57 on the top-left speaker • SM58 = full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with a Shure SM58 on the top-right speaker • BLEND #1: full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with 2 mics (Shure SM57 & SM58) blended • BLEND #2: full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with 2 mics (Shure SM57 & SM58 @ +4dB) blended • BLEND #3: full-rig chain, cab mic-ed with 2 mics (Shure SM57 @ +4dB & SM58) blended ⚙️ Reamp chain details • RME Fireface UCX II -> Lehle P-SPLIT III -> Carstens Grace 100 -> St.Rock React:IR II (Mesa 4x12 OS Straight / Marshall 4x12 1960BV) -> RME Fireface UCX II • SEND level: 18.995 dBu Use the "Calibration" feature (video linked) in the NAM plugin to get the most out of these profiles: www.neuralampmodeler.com/post/neuralampmodelerplugin-v0-7-12-is-released • [AMP] = full head (pre & poweramp) • [OD] = overdrive pedal • Mar412 = Marshall 4x12 1960BV cabinet used as load • Mes412 = Mesa 4x12 Oversized Straight cabinet used as load • STD (A2) = new go-to NAM A2 standard architecture • TSMINI = Tube Screamer Mini • MXRM77 = MXR Custom Badass Modified O.D. • FORTIN14 = Fortin Fourteen • FORTi.BLADE = Fortin Blade • DWHAMER = PedalPCB Dwarven Hammer • DFXKoD = DemonFX King of Drive • DFXKLON = DemonFX Centaur • DFXDBOOST = DemonFX Dual Boost, Exotic EP mode • JR.TheJef = J.Rockett Audio Designs The Jeff Archer • GRIND = Fortin Grind • ODD = Warm Audio ODD • BO$$ = Boss GE-7 Equalizer • TC.Electro-Line.Driver = TC Electronic Line Driver & Booster • TC.Electro-Int.Preamp = TC Electronic Integrated Preamp 📒 Spreadsheet with settings & inspiration for all profiles: mega.nz/file/2shgiLRL#g7lLOCv5ZIflUcZHkyc3TubwGqxVNwO0dh6F86yAkBI
