Introducing 3 Sigma Audio Acoustify

[@matgurman2710]

I’ve been wanting this since forever!

[@JoeQuick]

Happy to finally deliver :)

[@DanFiorenza]

Ahh IRs, use them often. Do you make compressed zip files for the java II platform?

[@JoeQuick]

😅

Greetings, I have a Godin Multiac Grand Concert SA Nylon guitar and I want to buy the Acoustify. Any recommendations would be very helpful, such as which IRS to use. Thank you.

[@JoeQuick]

Any of the models on the site will work equally as well. In the downloads there is a folder labeled Godin ACS that is made for those guitars. The Acoustic Piezo Standard folder also pairs well.

Brilliant! Great GUI - thanks for keeping this so affordable - any chance you could add the Ibanez UB805 to the double bass pack? Funny to see you cracking up a bit at 6 mins in or so - Seeyah...

[@JoeQuick]

@@grahamspence3294 Much appreciated 😀 And we can definitely look into adding official support for that one. Shoot our customer service an email. We’ll get some reference DIs from you to see first if it even needs its own thing and then go from there!

[@HarGTR]

I have (and love) some of your acoustic IRs that I bought in 2021 and 2022 and have been using with your Impulsive IR loader - are these GEN4 compatible and can be also used with Acoustify?

[@JoeQuick]

@@HarGTR Negative only the GEN4 packs are compatible with Acoustify

[@HarGTR]

@@JoeQuick - understood. Thank you!

[@edwardkenemorales]

@@JoeQuickare all impulses listed on the website already has the gen4 impulses?

[@JoeQuick]

@@edwardkenemorales Yep GEN4 came out in Nov 2023

[@Rob-ym]

I am not understanding. Most of those instruments don’t seem to have a jack cable. Apart from the electric guitar and banjo. How can they have a DI sound? Do you mean a contact mic? Still I did not see cables.

[@JoeQuick]

They're plugged in. Videos are never done the same time as the DI recordings. Video is strictly to have something interesting to look at. Our Acoustic Impulse line launched almost 10 years ago now. We continue to use those same DIs for consistency and it's what our customers are used to hearing for comparisons of new models. Acoustify is an IR loader for our Acoustic Impulse products.

[@Rob-ym]

@@JoeQuick oh I know your products well I bought some over the years. I was just curious about the video. I thought it was showing the actual playing while recording.

[@JoeQuick]

@@Rob-ym Nope! You're just hearing the recorded DIs being processed through Acoustify with the loaded Acoustic IR model that's shown on screen, then bypassed to hear the DI, then back to Acoustify. If you're curious about what pickups were used on everything, all the steel string acoustic demos are recorded with a Yamaha LL6M with the stock piezo. All the nylon string acoustics are recorded with the Kremona that's used in the video with a Fishman AGX piezo. Cellos are Headway the Band 2. Violins are ISI Aceto. Uprights are Fishman Full Circle. Ukes are the stock piezo on the Islander in the video. Mandolins are the stock piezo on the Fender in the video. Banjos are the KNA BP1 on the Harmony model in the video.

[@Rob-ym]

@@JoeQuick thanks for the info.

[@JoeQuick]

@@Rob-ym Yep :)

[@michaelussher86]

Please make it as an AUv3 plugin for ipad.

[@JoeQuick]

@@michaelussher86 If we get enough requests for that we certainly will :)

[@heinrichs_tube8448]

@@JoeQuick Yes please!

[@pacman_pol_pl_polska]

Is the bassist included?

[@JoeQuick]

Do you mean Bass IRs or the literal guy 😅

[@pacman_pol_pl_polska]

@@JoeQuick I'd prefer the guy... with the bass. AND IRs ;) Anyway! I've got 1 or 2 IRs for the acoustic guitar. I wonder how different the mics sound. Can't demo it at work and there is no tweeking in the video :^)

[@JoeQuick]

​@@pacman_pol_pl_polska Noted lol. They sound exactly the same as the different mic options that are provided in the GEN4 packs. Acoustify just auto loads them all at once and provides a GUI to use instead of having to manually load them 1x1 and use a text based workflow with traditional loaders.

[@pacman_pol_pl_polska]

@@JoeQuick Got you! Thanks

[@MusicOnTheDLo]

@@pacman_pol_pl_polska Stop, you're making me blush! 🥰🤣
