TAF Blue
Supercab Fluid IR Library: VOXAC30* 65/66 Cab with Celestion Blue-PreRola speakers
TAF Blue Fluid IR Library
TAF Blue is the Supercab IR Library created by Andy from TheAmpFactory in his Orangetreestudios HQ, capturing a VOXAC30* 65/66 with Celestion Blue-PreRola speakers.
"This speaker is and was the main reason why I went into producing my own IRs. "Blue" speakers have there own sound, but this one in particular has its VERY own character not like any other, - its softer, more gentle, unless you poke it and it becomes unfriendly but in an adorable way!. - if someone asked me what is the pinnacle of guitar tones, Id always refer to this, its what always comes to mind when thinking any guitar based sound, it will never age, it will never die. and best of all, its now eternally captured."
- Andy (TheAmpFactory)
This Amp & its speaker was in Abbey road, and the special thing is that this was one of the amps used for many of the Beatles recordings.. To this day, the amp still lives on, still in its original format, with no problems thus far!. - just don't ask me to turn the thing on!

Made for the supercabinet
The library is created for the TH-U SuperCabinet, which allows to:
- graphically browse the IRs in the library
- blend them together
- craft new cabinet tones with the unique Multiband mode
- use the IR in the software
- export the IRs in .wav, compatible with the software IR loaders and all the major hardware modelers
FLUID IRs EXPLAINED
Fluid IRs are an advanced form of impulse responses that encapsulate more detailed sonic characteristics compared to traditional IRs. Unlike regular IRs that merely mimic a speaker's frequency response, Fluid IRs also reproduce the speaker's dynamic behavior and harmonics. This enhancement delivers a tone that is more robust, lifelike, and direct, with better management of the bass frequencies.
As of version 1.4.26, all cabinets in TH-U and all of the SuperCabinet libraries have been upgraded to include Fluid IRs, which are provided to users as a free update.
Additionally, users have the option to upload their own conventional IRs into TH-U, taking advantage of Overloud's proprietary Fluid IR technology. This technology utilizes an AI algorithm trained to transform your IRs by recreating their dynamic and harmonic responses.
