With each step, Two notes Audio Engineering implements its know-how to offer the most advanced
simulations on the market and ensure total realism both for the musician (playing sensations) and the
listener (sound quality).
You can load up to 32 Two notes cabinets in the Torpedo C.A.B.. Download the free Torpedo
Remote software (Mac OS X and Windows PC) from
add or remove the stored cabinets. There are currently more than 150 Two notes cabinets available
in La Boutique and the Two notes Store that you can try in real time and purchase with Torpedo
Remote (requires a working Internet connection).

3.1 Tube Stage Output

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
specific use of that element and this possibility is present in the Torpedo C.A.B..
To do this, Two notes has developed an original tube-stage modeling, giving you the choice
between 4 different tube models (6L6, EL34, EL84 and KT88) in Push-Pull (PP) in class AB or Single
Ended (SE) in class A configurations. You can push this tube-stage like a conventional amplifier and
look for this subtle and particular distortion.
The Torpedo C.A.B. can be used as a super-DI for keyboards. The tube-amp simulation feature,
developed for guitarists and bassists, is also very interesting to warm up the sound of a synthesizer,
organ or digital piano.

3.2 EQ section

When recording guitars or basses, it is common to apply a few effects to shape the sound before
sending it to a PA or a recorder. In the Torpedo C.A.B. you will find a simple but efficient EQ filter with
two modes, GUITAR or BASS.

3.3 Room reverb

One of the latest additions to our Torpedo firmware is a room reverb. When recording a guitar or a
bass, the room sound is really important, especially with distant miking. With the Torpedo C.A.B., you
get the option to choose how the record room sounds!

4 The Torpedo technology, convolution and Impulse Responses

The impulse response (IR) of a system describes its behavior under the form of a very detailed filter.
The convolution technique uses IRs to simulate the behavior of particular systems, such as reverbs,
speakers, EQ...
It is the most accurate way to simulate sound signatures that are linear (i.e. without distortion)
and time-invariant (i.e. without modulation, compression, hysteresis...). It is particularly well suited for
speaker miking simulation.
Two notes has developed a unique technology based on an adaptation of convolution tech-
niques. Starting with a measurement of a real cabinet + microphone setup, the Torpedo Torpedo
C.A.B. can accurately reproduce the system as it was measured, as well as the microphone's pos-
ition in space, by using IR synthesis. In order to take full advantage of these digital algorithms, the
highest-quality audio design assures a perfect analog-to-digital conversion and a huge dynamic
range to retain the ultimate playing experience.
