the IRDX difference
Like tape saturation, the IRDX effect may seem subtle at first. But going back and forth between enabling and bypassing it, here’s what you’ll notice:
- With IRDX Core disabled, every stroke on the guitar sounds similar, and the guitar seems somewhat two-dimensional and lifeless.
- With IRDX activated, differences between the individual strokes are more discernible, the sound wakes up, and you get all the changes over time that are so important to keep the listeners’ attention.
- Using IRDX Core in a mixing situation adds width, movement, and excitement to guitar tracks. It also helps guitars sit better with the other instruments.
- With IRDX Core activated, the guitar sound reacts more realistically to your playing when you play through an amp sim in real time.
