Wanted to get a discussion going on the options for the room effects in the cab block.
- Am I right to think of these parameters as something akin to a virtual colorless mic being thrown up in the room at some distance from the cabinet?
- Is there a real-world equivalent for the units of the Room Size parameter? i.e. how big is "2"? Or does that matter?
- Scott posted his preferences for the settings (copied below). Do you find now that you can drop your far-field 5% mic from your IR recipe now and just go with the close-miked IRs and cab room effects?
Scott's room parms:
"I set the mix to 40%, Room size to 2.00 and the Mic distance to 70% as a personal preference and use that to critically compare speaker cab IR's throughout. Those are *my* values that I prefer. YMMV."
