Overloud SuperCabinet Library: Jensen Nighthawk

The official Jensen IR library based on the C12/75 NH “Nighthawk” AlNiCo speaker.

The Nighthawk shares with the Tornado Stealth 65 a special voice coil design.

The vintage-style 1 3/4″ (44mm) copper-wound voice coil has been engineered to deliver that unique midrange grunt that characterizes the “British Rock” tones.

The Nighthawk has a powerful bass range and the typical upper midrange “presence lift” that helps cut through a busy mix.

It excels with medium and high gain applications, for an ‘80s style hard & heavy tone.

A highly efficient speaker, naturally at home in medium/large closed-back 2×12 and 4×12 cabinets.

In addition, it has been also optimized for a full-bodied response in smaller open-back 1×12 enclosures.

The Nighthawk offers a wide range of different tones depending on the microphone type and placement, making the best out of the Overloud 18 mics/16 position typical capturing process.


Made For Supercabinet

  • The library is created for TH-U Supercabinet, which allows to:
  • Graphically browse the IRs in the library
  • Blend them together
  • Craft new cabinet tones with the unique Multiband mode
  • Use the IR in the software
  • Export the IRs in .wav, compatible with the software IR loaders and all the major hardware modelers

The microphones used during the capturing session are:

  • AKG C12
  • AKG C414
  • AKG C414 XLS

Every microphone has been moved to 4 different horizontal positions (Cap, Cap Edge, Cone, and Cone Edge), two distances, and two angulations, for a total of 16 IRs each.

All the measurement set has been repeated for each one of the cabinets in the library.

All IRs have been phase-aligned and can be blended without phase cancellations.
