Make the Mics You Have Sound Like the Mics You Want!

If your budget doesn't have room in it for every microphone you want (and let's face it, few people's do) then you're going to love Antares's Mic Mod EFX. If you were making music back in 2000, then chances are that you recall Antares's original Microphone Modeler plug-in. That legendary plug-in made heads turn here at Sweetwater, and engineers everywhere were simply blown away by what it could do. Prepare to be blown away all over again by Mic Mod EFX. This amazing plug-in is so simple to use and effective, it almost seems too good to be true.

It's easy to use, and the effect is profound

First, you load Mic Mod EFX up on one of your tracks and tell it which microphone you're actually using, as well as how close it is to the source, which pattern it's set to, and whether or not it has a low cut filter on. Next, you tell Mic Mod EFX which microphone you wish you were using and specify the same details. The effect is astonishing! Thanks to Antares's Spectral Shaping Tool technology, you can make your handheld dynamic microphone sound just like a high-dollar tube condenser or a rare ribbon, and the only one who will know the truth is you. You can even use Mic Mod EFX live to take the sound of your favorite fragile studio mic onstage.

Antares Mic Mod EFX Microphone Modeling Plug-in Features at a Glance:
  • Antares's patented Spectral Shaping Tool technology transforms the sound of your mic
  • Simple controls let you specify the mic you're using and the one you want it to sound like
  • Great for both studio recording and live sound
  • Take control of each mic's specific options (pickup pattern, highpass filter, proximity, tube saturation, and more
  • AAX Native, RTAS, AU, and VST format

Amazing

I was just recording on the Sony C800g not too long ago and when I use this plugin at home (with my ml 770) and hear myself it sounds like I'm on the Sony. Blown away by how good this plugin is. Technology wasn't as good maybe years ago so that might be why this plugin isnt as popular. But this is absolutely worth every penny.

Perfect Modeling If your expectations are realistic

This tool is just that... A tool. I used it alongside my 1977 U87 and my U87ai. I was unable to tell the difference between my Ai and my Vintage U87 when I used this plugin to turn one into the other. Like a few others have stated... I'm shocked this tool doesn't get more exposure. It's not for the guy who's wanting his SM57 to sound like a U47. But, if you have a high-end Neumann condenser of any type, you'll be satisfied.
Rated 5/5

Amazing

I'm using this plug-in with a Manley ref cad, I have no clie what the actual version of most of these mics are really suppose to sound like. All I know is they sound great!!
Rated 5/5

Favorite.

I'm astounded at the lack of credit MIc Mod has gotten. This software is really easy to use and also sounds extremely convincing to my ear. By no means does it sound like my own mic being EQ'ed. What I hear is dynamic frequency response change and saturation as well. This Mic Mod is now so so so, so very essential to my home recording studio as it turns my incredible Encore 100 into any mic. (note ENcore 100 has not yet been added to MIc Mod for subtraction or addition of mic sound, but rather culminates). Yet still the sound is incredible.

There are instrument mics, vocal mic's, supercardiods, cardiods, condensers and all. I highly recommend using a responsive Mic to begin with for original input. My Encore 100 is responsive but is not currently included in the program. Yet still for my sound I had already liked my encore 100 for my personal sound, so it culminates well. Enjoy. And I-lock is plug and play once you get it onto the I-lock.
