The Metal Essentials Black Friday deal covers a 10-cabinet DynIR expansion for Two Notes Audio Engineering's Wall of Sound, at $55.99 with 30% off, ending Nov 30, 2026.

The pack is an impulse response collection: virtual guitar and bass cabinets in Two Notes' DynIR format. It does not run on its own. You need the full version of Wall of Sound or GENOME to load it.

The maker says it is exclusive to Plugin Boutique and curated for classic Metal tones.

What is included in Metal Essentials?

Nine of the ten cabinets are closed-back 4x12 or 2x12 guitar cabs. The tenth is a bass cab. Each one is inspired by a real cabinet, and the speaker loadout is listed:

What is DynIR?

DynIR is Two Notes' virtual cabinet technology. Instead of one fixed capture, each cabinet gives you 8 mics, dual mic-ing and 10K mic positions, front and back.

The maker puts the power at the equivalent of 160,000 studio-grade IR files per cabinet. In practice, you move the mics around and dial in the tone rather than hunting through a folder of static files.

How does it work inside Wall of Sound?

Torpedo Wall of Sound is the plugin that hosts these cabinets. It stacks up to 20 DynIR Cabinet channels in stereo.

Each channel carries a tube power amp emulation and 8 room acoustics. Processing comes after the cabinet stage, with a tweakable reverb, a compressor tuned for studio work, an exciter covering two bands and a six-band equalizer. The maker says it works for re-amping, with modelling, or straight into your DAW from a preamp.

Wall of Sound is sold separately. The collection also works in Two Notes' embedded hardware, per the maker.

How many mics and positions does each Metal Essentials cabinet have?
