Celestion, the manufacturer of guitar and bass loudspeakers whose classic guitar tones have made the company famous as the voice of rock and roll, added two new Impulse Responses, the PULSE12 and the BN15-300X to their line of Bass Impulse Responses. The two new Bass IRs follow the recent introduction of the first 10-inch PULSE10 and 15-inch PULSE15 bass speaker models. These, along with the complete collection of genuine Celestion speaker tones, is available for audition and download at CelestionPlus.
Designed for today’s bass players who demand rock-solid bass tone, the Celestion PULSE12 bass speaker delivers the ideal combination of a rumbling low-end together with well-defined clarity and articulation. Providing the quick, percussive attack of its PULSE10 little brother, while attaining the fullness and warmth of its PULSE15 big brother, the Celestion PULSE12 speaker offers rumbling lows with a rich, warm mid-range and a detailed, zingy top-end.
This brawny, Kevlar-loaded cone speaker pulses with up to 200 Watts of raw power for a meaty bass performance. Recorded using the same techniques by the Celestion sound engineers who created the company’s full range of guitar speaker IRs, this best-selling bass speaker is now available for the first time in digitally downloadable format, in a 1×12 cabinet configuration, or as 1×12 with additional Playing Style Mixes.
And as Celestion realised early on that not every bass player wants a high-fidelity, super-clean bass tone, the company created the BN range of bass speakers. Primed for high-powered rock performances where a full-bodied, defined tone is essential, the BN15-300X is characterized by its warm, rich tone and powerful low-end thump, with an extended low-end and superior linear excursion.
With its mighty 15-inch, Kevlar-loaded speaker cone, the Celestion BN15-300X has a lightweight neodymium magnet to push out every note with 300 Watts of rich, warm tone and powerful low-end thump – which makes for more power and volume at half the weight. The BN15-300X the first of Celestion’s BN bass speaker range to be accurately reproduced and available in digital form and was created using exactly the same recording processes as the entire range of best-selling guitar speaker impulse responses. The Celestion BN15-300X bass speaker impulse response is available in a 1×15 configuration, or as 1×15 with added Playing Style Mixes.
“We are very proud to introduce these two new additions to our line of Impulse Responses especially designed for Bass Players,” says Nigel Wood, Managing Director at Celestion. “Players who create their tone with amp modelers and emulators or direct into DAWs can make use of our Impulse Responses and be able to enjoy classic Celestion tone.”
Each of the new bass speaker impulse responses are downloaded in .WAV format for compatibility with most DAWs, IR plug-ins and amp modelling software. The PULSE12 and BN15-300X single cabinets can also be included in a Pick & Mix selection, which allows to select combinations of either 3 or 5 cabinets from the company’s full range of original IRs, at a significant savings compared to purchasing individual IRs.
