Marshall highlights the importance of speaker IRs (Impulse Responses), emphasizing that speaker choice profoundly affects tone. He’s amassed a collection of vintage and modern IRs, each tailored to different amps and speakers, including V30s, Greenbacks, and others. His detailed process of selecting IRs based on speaker and cabinet nuances ensures authentic tones that translate well to the stage.
He speaks passionately about GGD’s Cali Oversized IRs, which emulate the full spectrum of vintage and modern studio speakers, allowing him to dial in accurate live tones that respond organically to his playing and effects.
