Roland Vs-880 - Manual (Page 32)

● Mic Simulator
This modifies sound that was recorded by a conventional dynamic mic, lapel mic or direct line,
causing it to sound as though it had been recorded by an expensive condenser mic or a special stu-
dio mic. The mic simulator can add effects of proximity or distance.

< Microphone ➝ Microphone conversion >
This converts the characteristics of an inexpensive general purpose mic into the characteristics of
an expensive studio mic. For an already-recorded sound, it can create the same tonal change as if
the type or distance of the mic had been changed.
< Line ➝ Microphone conversion >
This adds a feeling of ÒairÓ to an instrumental sound that was recorded by direct line input, caus-
ing it to sound as though it had been recorded with a microphone.
