21.5 Cabinet
The Cabinet Effect.
Cabinet is an effect that emulates the sound of ve classic guitar cabinets. Developed in
collaboration with Softube, Cabinet uses physical modelling technology to provide a range
of authentic sounds, with optimized mics and mic positioning.
The full version of Cabinet is not included with the standard version of Live, but is bundled
with the Amp effect as a special feature available for purchase separately.
The Speaker chooser allows you to select from a variety of speaker sizes and combinations.
The chooser's entries indicate the number of speakers and the speaker size in inches. For
example, 4x12 means four 12-inch speakers. In the real world, more and larger speakers
generally means higher volumes.
The Microphone chooser changes the position of the virtual microphone in relation to the
speaker cabinet. Near On-Axis micing results in a bright, focused sound, while Near Off-Axis
is more resonant and a bit less bright. Choose the Far position for a balanced sound that
also has some characteristics of the virtual room.
