Recabinet 3
Recabinet 3 Introduction Video:
Recabinet is the world’s ultimate cabinet simulator, launched in 2008 as the most comprehensive speaker cabinet impulse response library on the market. Since then, it has become a secret weapon of major artists and producers such as Steve Stevens, Vernon Reid, Devildriver, and Ill Niño.
In 2011, with Recabinet 3, it is an audio FX plugin for VST, AU, and RTAS formats for Mac OS X and Windows. It offers 20 virtual cabinets, 8 virtual mics, and 2 internal channels with the British-inspired Kazrog Konsole EQ, specifically voiced for making guitar and bass tracks come alive. Best of all, you can blend any cabinet and microphone/position combination with 100% phase coherency – breaking the laws of physics!
Recabinet 3 makes it fast and easy to find inspiring new sounds, avoiding the hassle of complex mixer routing and folder navigation associated with impulse response libraries. It also ships with ready-to-rock factory presets, with more on the way from major artists and producers.
Add Recabinet 3 in the signal chain after your favorite analog guitar amp, or your favorite software amp simulator (with cabinet simulation disabled) and you will experience a dramatic improvement in the realism of your guitar tracks. Recabinet 3 changes the proverbial game, giving you album-quality guitar tone direct, faster and easier than ever before.

Reviews and Testimonials
Recabinet has become an indispensable tool for us. Whether we’re on the road with our laptops, or doing pre-production demos at home, Recabinet makes it possible for us to get inspiring guitar tones anywhere!
- Michael Spreitzer, Devildriver
Recabinet for me is the go-to cabinet simulator when recording and mixing direct guitars and basses. Now with Recabinet 3, it´s even better – you can combine 2 cabinets in one plugin at the same time with a smooth EQ.

If you run a modeling rig, you’ll be blown away by how much added versatility and authenticity you’ll get using Recabinet with your favorite modeler or modelers. If you’re a home studio guy trying to cut an album without risking a noise violation, running your amplifier’s direct-out into the cabinet IRs provided will put high-quality tone in your grasp.
