Hello, has anyone here gained any expertise in creating an impulse response file, particularly for an antique phonograph or radio equipped with a horn? I'm interested in emulating that distinctive sound.

You might be able to find a good premade one here: https://fokkie.home.xs4all.nl/IR.htm

I also sometimes use izotope Vinyl + CS12 (free VST plugins) to get that sound.

AudioThing's "speakers" has "PA Horn" & "megaphone" presets which are close if you increase its "PITCH" control, and cut the bass with its in-built EQ. https://www.audiothing.net/effects/speakers/ (demo version is free)
