TC Electronic has announced the Impulse IR Loader, a compact stompbox that makes the process of adding cab sims to your pedalboard easier than ever.
In addition to a handy inbuilt screen, the Impulse IR Loader comes with several incredible features, notably the presence of 25 impulse responses, including a dozen from famous British speaker manufacturer Celestion, along with space for up to 99 IRs.
Even better, you can also enjoy Pedal Platform IRs, consisting of amp and cab impulse responses, letting you DI straight from your pedalboard.
Besides standard true bypass switching, the Impulse IR Loader’s footswitch works to A/B between two different IRs, making it suitable for players who leave their pedal always on.
“To get all of our users off to a great start, we teamed up with the most prestigious guitar speaker manufacturer in the industry: Celestion,” TC Electronic Product Manager Paul Robert Scott details.
“They’ve already meticulously created accurate and natural-sounding IRs of their most popular speaker models. So, we’re proud to announce that the Impulse IR Loader comes pre-loaded with 12 of the finest, official Celestion digital IRs – hand-picked from what we believe to be the best IR on the market.
“Furthermore, we succeeded in making the Impulse IR Loader capable of supporting IRs of up to 200ms, which allows for unparalleled accuracy and detail when cab, amp and acoustic IRs resemble the real deal.”
The Impulse IR Loader lists for $129.
