About the TORPEDO PI-101 - Wall of Sound Edition
2. place the microphone in the virtual studio (Miking window and parameters),
3. shape the signal (Low Cut, Eq, Exciter and Comp sections).
With each step, Two Notes Audio Engineering implements its know-how to propose the most advanced sim-
ulations on the market and ensure a total realism both for the musician (playing sensations) and the listener
(sound quality).
Note: only one microphone and one cabinet can be chosen on the PI-FREE edition.
2.1 Tube Stage Output
The TORPEDO PI-101 - Wall of Sound Edition handles any kind of instrument track. When using a guitar/bass
preamplifier with other speaker emulators, the guitarist/bassist may miss the power amplifier’s contribution to the
overall sonic texture. Many musicians get their sound from a particular use of this element and this possibility is
present in the TORPEDO PI-101 - Wall of Sound Edition. To do this, Two Notes developed an original tube stage
modeling, giving you the choice between 4 different tube models in Push-Pull or Single Ended configurations.
You can push this tube stage like a conventional amplifier and look for this subtle yet particular distortion. If the
TORPEDO PI-101 - Wall of Sound Edition is used as a super-DI for keyboards, this feature, developed for guitarists
and bassists, is also very interesting to warm-up the sound of a synthesizer, organ or a digital piano.
2.2 The Torpedo technology
Two Notes developed a unique technology based on an adaptation of convolution techniques. Starting with
a measure of a real cabinet + microphone setup, the TORPEDO TORPEDO PI-101 - Wall of Sound Edition can
accurately reproduce the system as it was measured, as well as the microphone position in space and the
natural distortion of the loudspeakers.
This product has been thoroughly tested in professional studios and stage environments and is the alternative
many musicians were waiting for professional sound capture of their amplified instruments. The TORPEDO PI-101 -
Wall of Sound Edition will give you the elusive sound of the greatest recording studios and producers, every time,
everywhere.
2.3 Post FX section
During a guitar/bass sound miking process, it is a common practice to apply some essential processes on the
signal before sending it to the recorder or the front mixing console.
In the TORPEDO PI-101 - Wall of Sound Edition, you will find most of these essential processes that you need to
control your sound, whatever the situation and the type of instrument.
• low-cut filter,
• 5-band graphic equalizer with two modes (guitar and bass),
• 1-band exciter to give the sound a certain character, or to add presence, or "air", in the sound,
• a powerful compressor to control the dynamics of the signal.
