There are different DynaCabs in the Axe Fx III and FM9 that aren't on the FM3...
This is a part of the discussion I'm still really not clear on. Afaiu, all the Dynacab selections are individual mic captures available for us to mix. So how can the phase differences between different types of microphones be already baked in? (it can't know what we want to mix with what). Unless this point is just related to individual mic captures having leading silence removed to make them more user mixable without phase issues? What am I missing?
Almost everything tends to get ported to the FM9, FM3, VP4, ect. eventually. I wouldn't hold your breath on the timeframe, though. It might be soon but maybe not.
Every sound is gonna have a phase to it. It's either positive or negative - pushing or pulling air. The wave has to be going up or down if there is sound being made. The IRs in the Axe Fx have been MPT so that they are all positive at the first transient.
Sorry, I was wrong in my earlier statement and you are correct here!
While that's true (and I was wrong, again), it does mean that the phase relationship characteristics between the mics types is present in the IR information already.Nope.
Time alignment =/= phase rotation
The noticeable difference in phase happens when there are two microphones capturing one source, so since the mics on a specific dynacab were captured in great detail at different distances from the speaker, when you use two mics with this option now, it would the same as using those two mics in a real world scenario. The phase is baked in in that you’re getting accurate frequency responses from each microphone when it’s distance changes, and this distance and frequency response from the distance shifts the phase/tone of the summed result of mics. So, in a real world scenario, aligning two mics usually gives you the most forward and cohesive sound, but the intentional distance between the two can also have pleasing results that can smear certain frequencies in a pleasing way, i.e. smoothing out the high end as an example.
I thought the phase difference existed between omnidirectional (pressure receiver) and directional characteristics (pressure gradient receiver), and not between dynamic and condenser capsules?Maybe we're going quite a bit OT, but I just pulled out two of my mics, an SM57 (dynamic) and Rode M5 (small diaphragm condenser), carefully aligned them against my cab, made a quick recording and... they're perfectly in phase!?
I've read countless times that they should be 90° out-of-phase due to the pressure vs velocity thing, that the max positive signal of one would correspond to zero on the other, and so on... how the hell can they be in
Like Schroedinger's Cab?
Ok, maybe I just made some confusion among mic types then... but I'm pretty sure that even Dan Worral in a recent video said the same thing
AI told me the wrong size wiper blades for my car and even insisted it was correct. I don’t trust it!
Yeah, I know it can't be always trusted... but I've read this thing I don't know how many timesAI told me the wrong size wiper blades for my car and even insisted it was correct. I don’t trust it!
Only DynaCabs allow you to adjust the distance in a way that the unit recognizes. Legacy IRs lack distance information.
correct as there is no mic distance control in legacy mode.
But the reverb quality was just taken over from Ultra-High on AXEFXIII to Economy on FM3.
