in my opinion, the Ownhammer IR's give the 11R a much better in the room tone (for those of us that like that). and that helps the feel factor a ton. when using a guitar cabinet in the room; you can do stuff like squeal a note/pinch harmonic and have this sort of compression thing working because the guitar speaker rolls off at a certain frequency and the high notes have no where to go, so they sound like they are compressing. Ownhammer IR's will do that for you like a normal guitar cabinet.

the thing i like best about the mixes they created is that they totally captured the entire cabinet sound instead of just an sm57 in front of the grill.

what i'm looking forward to doing next is to make IR's using two different IR's panned wide to form a stereo IR. some of the best stuff i've heard was done that way.

now that TLTD is back in the mix with us, expect to hear some fantastic combos of IR's.
