Ipswich, UK (January 18, 2021) —Celestion, the celebrated manufacturer of guitar and bass loudspeakers and professional audio drivers for sound reinforcement applications, is very pleased to announce the NAMM 2021 debut of SpeakerMix Pro, a self-contained studio-grade DAW plug-in dedicated to bringing ground-breaking levels of detail and realism to guitar and bass speaker tone, for use with Impulse Responses as well as the company’s new Dynamic Speaker Responses (DSRs),  the next generation of  digital speaker responses that capture the sound and feel of the speaker’s dynamic, non-linear response for even more tonal detail.

With SpeakerMix Pro, users can:

• Mix up to six responses together to create the perfect and unique guitar or bass speaker sound.

• Use with our new DSRs for the capability to fine-tune the mic position, enabling you to adjust the position of the microphone across the speaker until you’ve found the tone that’s just-right.

SpeakerMix Pro is available for VST, AU and AAX compatible DAWs, to allow users to achieve the ultimate guitar tone in recording.

Ipswich, UK (August 25, 2020) —Celestion, the premier manufacturer of guitar and bass loudspeakers and professional audio drivers for sound reinforcement applications, is pleased to announce that their highly-anticipated Axi2050 axiperiodic driver is now available for purchase at Parts Express.

Performing the role of two speakers in one, the Axi2050 is a high power, high-output driver which reproduces a frequency range of 300Hz-20,000Hz without the need for a midband crossover. The Axi2050 delivers an extended frequency range and an exceptionally accurate signal, particularly in the critical listening band: : enhancing clarity and speech intelligibility, as well as reproducing music more dynamically and with greater coherence.

In contrast to most existing high-sensitivity, wideband drivers which are designed with two separate diaphragms, the Axi2050 uses a single, large diameter, sculpted, circumferentially axiperiodic, annular titanium diaphragm. This breakthrough technology enables the device’s remarkable wideband output, as well as providing a number of other significant advantages.

The result of more than five years’ research, the Axi2050’s patented diaphragm design consists of many curved, axiperiodically symmetrical elements which adds immense strength to a very thin and light sheet of titanium. Consequently the shape of the mechanical vibration modes are tailored so they do not couple with the acoustic modes; enabling the device to deliver a very uncoloured performance by avoiding resonance peaks.

This single diaphragm has a diameter large enough (more than 175mm) to reproduce frequencies as low as 300Hz, while still having a small enough moving mass to facilitate high frequency reproduction. And the diaphragm’s large surface area and axial flexibility enables the generation of very high SPL, even at low frequencies.

The Axi2050 delivers unrivalled intelligibility and perceived audio performance, particularly in the critical listening band. Benefits include:

• A large, single diaphragm enabling the device to cover a wide frequency range from 300 to 20,000Hz, so a midband crossover isn’t required.
• A high sensitivity output: 140dB (measured at 1W on a plane wave tube), with 110dB-115dB on an appropriate large format, 2-inch exit horn.
• 150Wrms (AES standard) of power handling capability.
• A 2-inch exit throat and standard mounting.
• Fully scalable technology.

More information on the Axi2050 is available here.
