Microphone Replacement
Each of the mic groups has its own mic replacement selection menus for the original mic as well as the
replacement mic. Each default setting is normally in the none-flat setting (no mic models being used at all).
Application: If you have a sampled instrument library that used a particular microphone, you would select that
mic from the “Original Mic” list, for instance the U47.
Of course, every microphone is different due to variations in manufacturing, age, and wear and will have a
slightly different impulse response. If a given microphone is kept in mint condition, it should be close to the
ones used for the GigaPulse mic models. All the GigaPulse mic models have the following qualities:
• original factory condition
• representative of shipping models, no custom modifications
With this in mind, the end result is not going to be perfect, given the physical variables that are possible, but
there will be a significant result, nonetheless.
Original Mic
In the “Original Mic” drop-down list the “inv” represents an “inverse” impulse response. This essentially
removes the character of the selected microphone from the original sampled instrument library.
