The Convology XT Library of Vintage Amps is second to none, with 17 different physical vintage amps being sampled with quality microphones and varying distances. Vintage amps and cabinet impulse response files tend to be an EQ response rather than a spatial response; although many of these amps came with spring reverb units, in this library, along with Tone Control, Bass, Treble, Mid with varying intensity, etc., vibrato and tremolo were generally handled through software emulations rather than impulse response capture by the nature of those functions. In much the way Chorus and Flange are real-time processing-based and not recorded over a set period of time like a reverb or delay. In other words, a reverb or a delay is not finite (there's a start and there's an end) and so the impulse response can be taken within an "acoustical snap shot" from start to finish.

This library is full of prized amps made popular through the years by many legendary guitar players and also includes rare and creative gems not seen in most library offerings. These cabinet impulse response files, coupled with many built in vintage spring verb units, is truly one of a kind collection.
