Name: 112 DVRB (stereo)
Cab: Fender® Deluxe Reverb® 1×12
Speaker: Fender® CTS ceramic

Notes: Based on a vintage Fender Deluxe Reverb open back 1×12 combo loaded with a 1978 Fender CTS ceramic 12” speaker. Mic: Neumann U87. IR created using a neutral/reference amp.
Notes: Based on a Fender Blues Junior 112 cab with a Jensen C12N 80 Ohm speaker. Mix IR with multiple microphones and microphone positions of all speakers of the cabinet (in this case 1 speaker, because the Blues Junior is a 1X12″ cabinet / combo). The Focus_Cab IR contains all microphone types used in multiple positions: SM57, MD421, E906, C414, U87, R121, KM184. No EQ post processing, pro grade flat mic preamps, clean amplification (theoretical sound influence by mic pre and amplifier are mathematically excluded).
