2) Select another mic on the list whose characteristics are known to
be similar to your mic (a similar model from the same manufac-
turer, for example).
3) Select another mic of the same general type as your mic, e.g.,
dynamic, large diaphragm condenser, etc.
4) Select Bypass from the menu
It must be stressed that selecting option 2, 3 or, especially, 4, will
compromise the Microphone Modelers ability to accurately repro-
duce the sound of the desired modeled mic. Thats not to say that
you wont be able to get something that sounds great, just that its
unlikely to be an accurate simulation of whichever mic you chose in
the Modeled Mic section.
In particular, if you choose Bypass as the Source Mic and any mic as
the Modeled Mic, the resulting effect is equivalent to having re-
corded the audio with the actual physical mic (which you, of course,
did) and then having played back that track through a perfect set of
speakers and rerecorded it with the Modeled Mic. Again, maybe a
great sounding creative effect, but not an accurate representation
of the Modeled Mic.
Note: If we don’t have a model of your mic and you really, really
want to use it as a source mic, you might consider giving us a
call and seeing if we’re interested in modeling it. If so, you’d
have to be willing to send it to us and have it out of your posses-
sion for about 5 working days.
Low-Cut Menu
If the mic you select in the Source Mic menu is equipped with a user-
selectable low-cut filter, the Low-Cut pop-up menu will allow you to
select from among the actual filter settings available on that mic. (If
the selected mic does not have a low-cut filter, the menu will be
grayed out.)
If the source mic does include a low-cut filter, select the low-cut
setting that was (or will be) used when capturing your audio.
Note: It is important to keep in mind that the purpose of this
setting is to “undo” the effect of any low-cut filter that was
used to capture your audio. If you play around with this setting,
you may initially think that it’s working “backwards.” That is,
changing the menu selection from OFF to any filter setting will
actually cause a bass boost in the monitored audio.
