Cab (HeadRush / Revalver)
The Cab category is a list of popular guitar and bass amp
cabinets, which contain the speakers. HeadRush Core
recreates not only the sound of the cabinet but also the type
of microphone recording it.
Preset: This is the current cab preset, which includes the
model, all its settings, and its color assignment.
Cab Type: This is the cab type. Numbers notated as
_X__ indicate the number of speakers it has and the
size of each speaker (e.g., 2X12 denotes a cab with
two 12-inch speakers, 4X10 denotes a cab with four
10-inch speakers). Numbers notated as __W indicate
the emulated wattage (output power) of the speaker.
Mic Type: This is the type of microphone being used on the cab. You can select different models of dynamic
(Dyn), condenser (Cond), or ribbon (Ribbon) microphones.
Mic Settings: These are the settings for the microphone:
• Break Up: This determines the amount of speaker “breakup”—the natural distortion that occurs when the
audio signal overdrives the speaker.
• On-Axis: This determines the microphone position relative to the cab. On-axis placement (On) positions the
microphone at the center of the speaker, usually resulting in a brighter sound with more definition. Off-axis
placement (Off) is slightly offset at an angle from the center of the speaker, and it often sounds darker in tone.
• Out Gain: This is the cab’s output gain level.
• Amp Gain: This is the amplifier’s gain level.
Color: This is the assigned color, which will appear in the Hardware Assign screen and the switch indicator if
the cab is assigned to a switch.
