Free Metal Guitar Impulse Response Library (2024-2025)
This free guitar impulse response (IR) library offers a meticulously curated collection of high-quality metal guitar tones. It’s a streamlined version of a well-known library, focusing on essential elements for efficient workflow. All samples are 200ms long, available in 44.1kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz sampling rates, and utilize minimum-phase conversion for optimal audio quality. Unnecessary elements like speaker/cabinet mixes, quick-start guides, and extra samples have been removed to minimize file size.
