I read somewhere that the way the Axe-FX adds mic character to a cab block is via convolution with something that encodes the EQ curve of the mic. (I'm a mathematician, and convolution comes up in many places in math - I'm just assuming the term is being used here in the same manner, which would indeed make sense.)
If this is so, I wonder if one could do just the opposite to approximate removing the mic character from a IR pulled from a cab. For example, I might capture an IR with my SM57 but want to remove some of the coloration coming from the 57. It would be amusing to have an "inverse SM57" option from the mic menu.
Mathematically, it seems that this would amount to computing an inverse (with respect to convolution) of the SM57 data. Is this feasible?
