CT-Bogie110CB-160.wav

Inspired by Mesa Boogie® 1x10 (Closed Back)

Name decoding (typical Choptones):

  • CT → Choptones
  • BogieMesa/Boogie style cabinet
  • 110 → checkout 1x10”
  • CBClosed Back
  • 160 → IR variant (often microphone position / distance / EQ)

Sound character

This IR is very particular (less common than 4x12):

  • low very tight and controlled
  • very focused mids
  • high precision
  • fast response

Result: compact, punchy, very defined sound

Perfect for:

  • precise recording
  • funky rhythms / clean tight
  • defined rhythm guitar
  • layering with larger IRs
  • mix-ready studio

Recommended Parameters

Gain (dB)

IR level

Small IR (1x10) → less bass → you can keep it higher

Examples:

  • Clean: -3 dB
  • Funk: -4 dB
  • Rock: -5 dB

Rule: Maintains punch without saturating

HiCut (Hz)

Cuts high frequencies

Very defined IR → can become “sharp”

Realistic range:

  • 5.5 kHz → 8 kHz

Examples:

  • Clean: 6 kHz
  • Funk: 6.5–7 kHz
  • Rock: 7–7.5 kHz

Rule: reduces harshness without losing attack

LoCut (Hz)

Cuts low frequencies

bass already controlled → DO NOT overdo it

Realistic range:

  • 70Hz → 110Hz

Examples:

  • Clean: 75 Hz
  • Funk: 80–90 Hz
  • Rock: 90–100 Hz

Rule: maintains body without emptying the sound

Mix (%)

Blend IR / direct signal

Standard:

  • 100%

Creative:

  • 80–90% for parallel tone

Pro Tips

Great starting point:

  • Gain: -4 dB
  • HiCut: 6.5–7 kHz
  • LoCut: 80–90 Hz
  • Mixes: 100%

This IR works best:

in layer with 4x12 to add attack for studio mixes

PRO example:

  • Tread412 → body
  • Bogie110CB → definition

result: professional sound

Use CT-Bogie110CB-160 whenever you want:

precision attack clarity in the mix reduce mud
