no 'educated' audio person would believe that claim (turn mic a into mic b - come on!).

The Mic Modeler's target market is obviously not the audio professional (or even experienced hobbyist) but rather musicians and audio beginners Nick Eipers wrote on Thu, 14 December 2006 19:10

If I am wrong about how this works then I apologize, but this is my understanding based on reading literature about the program and having personally used it a few times. Further, unless there is a specific "U-47, 6 inches away" and "U-47, 2 inches away", proximity effect is not variable as it would be with the real thing. In the opposite way, a 57 with its limited frequency response can be EQ'd to mimic a 47's, but because there is no information at the extremes as there would be for a 47, any EQ boost to match the 47 will consist mainly of noise. If the U47 has a response greater than the 57, the 47's response is EQ'd so it approaches the 57's, rolling off highs and lows. The program does not consider *your* microphone's response, just those in the program. The program compares the cataloged response of each microphone and makes an EQ adjustment accordingly. If you have a 47 you want to sound like a 57. The cataloged responses are considered as being typical of each type. This catalog might include a Shure 57 and a Neumann U47 for instance. As I understand the technology it works like this:Ī selection of microphones is tested for frequency response and cataloged.
