Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Friedman’s IR-X puts a dual-channel tube preamp and cabinet/power-amp IR processing into a compact pedal format. Two high-voltage 12AX7 tubes form the preamp section, while DSP simulation provides a miked-cabinet-style signal for a DAW or front-of-house. Channel one covers British-voiced clean through Plexi-style drive; channel two moves to Friedman’s higher-gain voice. Separate adjustable boosts for both channels expand the footswitchable options to four.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sending a cabinet- and power-amp-simulated signal directly to a DAW or front-of-house.
- Moving between cleaner British-voiced sounds, Plexi-style drive, and higher-gain Friedman voicing from one pedal.
