The official Jensen® IR library based on the “Blackbird” P12/40 BB AlNiCo speaker

Jensen® Blackbird 12-40

Jensen® Blackbird 12-40 - Supercab IR Library (608 IRs)

The Blackbird 40 is the first speaker in the Jet Series featuring the Jensen's exclusive Reinforced AlNiCo magnet technology, developed to increase the strength of the magnetic flux. The voice of the Blackbird 40 offers a powerful, controlled bass range and all the sparkly brilliance that is typical of the classic Jensen Speakers. Equally suited to clean, quasi-acoustic tones, to crunchy overdrive ones, up to powerfully distorted lead tones, the Blackbird 40 offers a very distinct yet versatile character. It suits a wide range of applications, form the traditional, warm, jazz, country, rock and blues tones, up to the fiercer brit-style power-chords and lead lines. The capturing process has focused on the 1x12 and 2x12 Open Back cabinets, the best suited to deliver the natural complexity of the Blackbird 40 tones; each cabinet has been mic’ed up with the usual Overloud assortment of 18 microphones, each in 16 different positions.
