“Sorry... I must have been unclear.”

No. I misunderstood you. grin

“Reading through the advertisements on microphone emulators, you might get the impression that they could turn your cheap microphone into the equivalent of a much more expensive microphone.”

“That's obviously not possible.”


Since I haven't actually used the IK gadget, I can't be so certain of that. I do know that many guitar players are eschewing amps and replacing them with PODs and the like. Why? Because the modeling is so darned good.


“Specifically, if my cheap microphone can't capture any signal above 1200Hz (I said it was cheap!), if I record a piccolo concerto, I'll notice that my lots of notes are absent from my recording. Running that through a microphone emulator won't make that "missing" information appear, because it was never captured in the first place.”

Agreed. One shouldn't try to record an instrument that has a range of 630Hz - 5K with a 1200Hz mic. grin


"Did that make sense?"


Yup. I still think the IK gadget is interesting. grin
