The SM57 has a flat setting as well as 2 different proximity settings, taking advantage

of the favorable proximity effect for certain applications, such as snare drums and gui-

tar amps.

In addition to replacement mics there are some exciter models. This list will be grow-

ing over time as more impulse responses become available.

Mic Model Performance

Selecting inverse and emulated mic models function in a “cascade” sense, in that

there is no additional processing required of the GigaPulse NFX plug-in. So if you select

a room and a microphone, you will not be increasing the computation. The GigaPulse

will do all the necessary pre-processing of the affected signal in order to minimize the

amount of computation. It is all self-contained within each instance of the plug-in.

Application example: Use an instrument body resonance placed in a room with a

selected replacement mic model, all at the computational cost of only one GigaPulse

plug-in. The computation needed is governed by the size of the longest impulse, usually

the room. Mic model and instrument body resonances tend to be very short in duration.

By the same token, where the room sizes are smaller, GigaPulse will always give the

greatest efficiency in computation wherever possible.

Center Mic Group

The Center Mic Group channel is identical in functionality to the other Mic Groups

except that only one channel is available in this group. No Mid-Side decoding is avail-

able for the Center Mic Group.
