If you’re the owner of a Kemper Profiler with Cab Maker software, you’ll want to check out this great video tutorial by Kemper. It shows you the steps you need to take to convert Celestion impulse responses (which are delivered in .wav format) into Kemper compatible (.kipr) files. To do this you’ll need not only […]

When we said we had a hard time picking a winner for our recent video contest for Celestion speaker IRs, we weren’t kidding. So here we take a look at five standout entries, highlighting some of the amazing talent and skill of our contestants as they found different ways to put Celestion’s guitar speaker impulse […]

When we launched Celestion impulse responses in January the most overwhelming reaction was just how well they replicate the tones of the speakers they are modelled on (the G12M-65 Creamback, the Vintage 30 and so on). And it wasn’t long before some people began to ask the question: If you can make IRs this accurate, […]

Thanks again to all the amazingly talented entrants to our impulse response video competition. Sometimes when we run competitions it’s easy to choose a winner. It wasn’t on this one! Trust us when we say the standard of entries was really, really high, as you’ll see when you watch the winning videos. In First Place… […]

The most important feature of our impulse response files is their accuracy – giving you great tone that’s almost indistinguishable from a real Celestion speaker/cab setup. But we’ve also put a lot of thought into making our IR downloads easy to use. One recent YouTube demo highlighted this aspect really well and we wanted to […]

We’ve been totally blown away by so many great YouTube videos appearing over the past few weeks of you guys putting Celestion IR downloads through their paces. We’d love to see even more, so today we are announcing a video contest – with some great prizes for the best one. We’re even offering a discount […]

Celestion spoke with guitarist and musician Pete Thorn, who has performed worldwide alongside legendary artists such as Don Henley, Chris Cornell and Melissa Etheridge. After relocating to Los Angeles to attend the Musicians Institute in his late teens he played with a succession of bands, building a resume that ultimately led to tours with globally […]

What was the process? I worked together with the Celestion guys on the studio engineering side of the IR production and completed mixing the presets that Celestion are going to offer with the main IRs we’ve recorded. I recorded Celestion’s Andy Harper in his band many years ago—14 or 15. He tracked me down, and […]

What you really want to know is…  How accurate are our impulse responses? How faithfully do they reproduce the tone of our Celestion speakers? Can you actually hear any difference between the two? To demonstrate the answer to this question, we’ve put together this video which splices together clips of a guitar and valve amp […]
