IK Multimedia has announced the availability of Mic Room — the latest module for their T-RackS mix and mastering processor (which has been updated to v4.9).
Mic Room is a powerful microphone-modeling tool that puts a collection of over 20 classic and contemporary microphones at your fingertips. It gives you the power to process and "re-mike" your physical microphones to sound and perform like some of the most coveted microphone models of all time from ribbons to dynamics to condensers and beyond. It also offers a plethora of tone-sculpting tools that are ready for use in your favorite DAW.
Mic Room offers a detail and accuracy. Each of its virtual microphone models boasts the true frequency response, nuanced character and specific sound of its counterpart. That means you can tap into the harmonic complexity of tube condensers, the "in-your-face" tone of dynamics and velvety smoothness of ribbon types. You can even fuel your creativity with Mic Room's quirkier options, like tube and telephone microphones.
Mic Room lets you effortlessly change the sonic profile of recorded audio to match the signature of a chosen microphone. Want to transform a dynamic into a condenser? A condenser into a ribbon? Well, Mic Room is a T-RackS module, so you can slap it onto an individual track (either inside T-RackS or as a standalone plug-in) and then change recorded audio from vocals and miked instruments and amplifiers. Once on a track, Mic Room lets you choose the original source microphone and then a new microphone to re-mike it with, so you can harness a new level of nuance, color and tonal character.
Mic Room also comes with a number of additional tone control features that have been designed to enhance your recording experience. The Proximity effect lets you play with the "proximity effect" that naturally adds bass when a source is near a microphone. Dial it in for a rich and deep "FM radio vocals" sound. Or dial it down to scoop the low frequencies out. The Harmonic control effect gives you the full power and rich harmonic complexity of a tube condenser. This control lets you add saturation, character, and texture to your recordings.
Though Mic Room for T-RackS can liven up the character of any microphone, IK suggest it works best when paired with iRig Mic Studio, iRig Pro Duo, iRig PRO, iRig Mic HD, iRig Mic and other microphones and interfaces from IK Multimedia.
