I've been thinking about cabs/IR's/Mics and all that stuff
and it's got me thinking...
Is a high end mic or particular mic more desirable because of its behavior/frequency response than its actual build/quality/parts etc
Aside from the quality of mic preamps and outboard gear and stuff...
Obviously condenser/dynamic/ribbon mics have a different warmth/sound/feel-
But overall is the reason a mic is good just due to the natural frequency response of it?- basically the eq shape it ads to whatever it is that is being mic'd?
With something like Tone Match and IRs is a high end mic even needed if all it does is ad a certain set of EQ to the guitar?
hopefully this make sense...
any thoughts?
