Torpedo PI is a high end speaker micing simulator which simulates a cab/microphone combination, including speaker distortion, but also allows you to virtually move the microphone in front of the speaker cabinet.

It also provides a tube power amp simulator and a "shaping FX" section including low cut, EQ, exciter and compressor.

Torpedo PI comes with more than 30 vintage and modern cabinets, and a choice of 8 studio standard microphones.

If you already have a favorite speaker cab and microphone, you can measure them thanks to our Torpedo Capture software that will take care of all the processing and will output a TUR file for you to import into the Torpedo PI-101 to instantly find your sound without having to setup the big pile of gear.
Note that the PI-101 is also compatible with third party IR libraries.

A free version is also available: Torpedo PI-FREE

The Torpedo PI-101 is composed of the following sound processing sections:

• Power amp simulation with 8 different power amp topologies
• “Miking” section with more than 30 cabs and 8 studio standard micrphones available
