Note: Like the Low-Cut control described above, the Source Mic
Proximity control may initially seem to be working backwards
(i.e., setting a shorter distance will result in an audible bass
attenuation). Refer to the explanation back up in the Low-Cut
section to understand why this is actually how it is supposed to
work.
Also note that the effect of the Proximity control is unique for each
model of microphone. The Microphone Modeler does not use a
generalized approximation of proximity effect. Each model reflects
the specific physical properties that create the proximity effect for
that individual mic.
Modeled Mic Section
Here’s where the fun really starts.
The MODELED MIC section is where
you select the mic (and its settings)
whose characteristics you want to
apply to your audio.
Modeled Mic Menu
The Modeled Mic pop-up menu is
used to select your desired mic. In
some cases a mic will have a second
listing with “(w)” appended to the
mic’s name. This indicates that the
mic we modeled was supplied with
a windscreen and this is the model of the mic with the windscreen
attached. If you wish to simulate the use of the windscreen, you
should select this version of the model.
When you first install the Microphone Modeler, the menu will
include all of the mics that we had modeled up to the point at
which the CD ROM was released for duplication. You should be
sure to check the Antares web site (www.antarestech.com) for
new models completed since that release.
Additionally, the menu offers a selection called “Bypass.” When
Bypass is selected, no mic model is applied. The net sonic effect of
selecting Bypass here depends on the setting of the Source Mic
menu:
