The Torpedo C.A.B. M («Cabinets in A Box»)…
… is the missing link between the guitarist’s rig and the PA or an audio interface. Use the best cabinet simulator (« cab sim ») available or load your own IR files.

The concept

You love the sound of your carefully chosen pedals interacting with your amp.

With the Torpedo technology, the tone you created is faithfully sent directly to the PA or the audio interface with consistency at any show, studio session or rehearsal. At last, end the hassle of cables, mics and poor room quality that prevent your tone to be at its best.

Torpedo C.A.B. M delivers the cab sim every player has been looking for, in a compact pedalboard friendly size.

Go direct to the PA and the audio interface from your pedalboard with Torpedo C.A.B. M and create a lightweight rig. Use it as an amp DI between your amp and the cabinet to send your true tube tone to the PA. Pair it with Torpedo Captor to practice your tube amp silently at home with headphones.

Exclusive Torpedo technology

Two notes’ highly realistic cab sim is achieved by use of convolution. Two notes started from that technology and brought it much further, to accurately reproduce the characteristics of the whole miking chain (speaker, microphone, preamplifier, studio room acoustic).

Many parameters influence the sound of your guitar or bass rig when it comes to recording. Taking good care of the cabinet selection and miking will dramatically improve the sound of your takes.

The Torpedo cab sim reproduces the tiniest variations of a cabinet behaviour (such as its frequency response). Move the microphone in the virtual studio room thanks to the Torpedo IR synthesis: all the settings you need to achieve great recordings are here.

Because we want you to express your full potential, the Torpedo processing is compatible with third-party IRs, and the Torpedo C.A.B. M can load mono files in high resolution, up to 200 ms in real time.

The stompbox-style Torpedo

The Torpedo C.A.B. M is the most advanced cab sim, designed for the player who wants to record and gig without the hassle of the mics and the cables.

As a standalone unit, the Torpedo C.A.B. M comes loaded with 32 Two notes Virtual Cabinets, 8 microphones and 8 rooms to choose from, right out of the box.

With an amp

Offer your amplifier the best amp DI you can dream of: connect the speaker output of your amp into the Torpedo C.A.B. M input and the SPEAKER OUT of the C.A.B. M into your speaker cabinet. No need for a microphone, the most versatile amp DI on Earth is taking care of the miked cab sim.

(DISCLAIMER: the C.A.B. M is not a load box. If you connect your amp output to the pedal you must connect the cabinet to the Speaker output of the C.A.B. M)

With a preamp

Connect your preamplifier directly to the Torpedo C.A.B. M and take advantage of our exclusive tube power amp modeling. Select a type of power amplifier and its characteristics, a tube model, and make your preamp sing as it deserves!

Applications:

Control your Torpedo from your mobile device or computer

With its clear and intuitive interface, Torpedo Remote gives you access to all parameters of your Torpedo C.A.B. M.

Choose the cabinet and visualise your microphones placements instantly, and move them around easily. Load and save presets, load new virtual cabinets or 3rd party IRs, and update the unit’s firmware. Preview any speaker cabinets from the Two notes Store, and choose to buy the ones you prefer.

The Torpedo C.A.B. M can also be controlled from your smartphone or your tablet with Torpedo Wireless Remote.

Available for Android or iOS, you can tweak your presets, change cabinets or third party IRs that are stored in the pedal without bending down to your pedalboard.

Arcade or Simulation mode

We borrowed the concept of Arcade VS Simulation from the world of video games.

The Arcade mode is usually the easy way to, for example, drive a race car. You can hit obstacles, other cars, you can still win the race.

We recommend that for your first experience with The Torpedo C.A.B. M you start with the Arcade preset mode to get more familiar with the concept of virtual miking.

The simulation mode is not for beginners and requires more experience and knowledge about how the car actually works, depending on many tiny but still important parameters (weather, type of tires, track design…). In that preset mode you will gain access to the full list of parameter, to fine tune your sound and make it perfect to your ears.

A great IR Loader pedal

Torpedo C.A.B. M is also an amazing IR loader: use the .wav files delivered by third-party vendors or available for free on the Internet for your cab sim needs.

You can use two IRs to shape your sound. Store them in the internal memory of the pedal to be able to tweak the IRs with Torpedo Remote.

If you wish to have more IRs at hand, use the 256 MB memory card that comes with Torpedo C.A.B. M. All these files will be accessible through the screen of the pedal, in the IR Loader mode.

Connections:

Consistent tone, anywhere, without an amp.

Use Torpedo C.A.B. M with your pedalboard to go direct to the PA or the audio interface. The cab sim pedal sends a magnificent miked cabinet sound from your pedalboard. Torpedo C.A.B. M is the power amp and the cabinet with 2 mics, to design the sound you want from your pedalboard.

Use your amp silently.

Pair Torpedo C.A.B. M with a load box (like the Torpedo Captor)to create a silent and lightweight amp rig.

Torpedo C.A.B. M will send your tube amp tone direct to the PA or the interface. Enjoy consistent tone anywhere with your amp, without the hassle of the cabinet, mics and cables.

Perform without miking your cabinet.

Use Torpedo C.A.B. M as amp DI. Place it between the amp and the cabinet to send the full tone of the amp to the PA or the audio interface. You have your true amp tone going direct with the cab sim pedal. Keep your cabinet as a monitor on stage.

(DISCLAIMER: The Torpedo C.A.B. M is not a load box. You need a load box or a cabinet connected to the SPEAKER OUT of the pedal at all times)
