Room Microphones - Universal Audio OX Operation Manual

Room Microphones

The five room mics capture the ambience of a high quality recording studio room for OX's
Dynamic Room Modeling. Matched stereo pairs are available for stereo ambience.
The room mics can be individually accessed for every Rig within the OX software app.
RIBBON STEREO
These ribbon mics are placed in the drum area of the tracking room. In "live" mode
(DAMP off), this pair has a warm treble response with an overall vintage '50s and '60s
session vibe. With DAMP enabled, baffles and carpeting remove midrange and make for a
quicker response time.
CONDENSER STEREO
These tube condenser mics are placed in the drum area of the tracking room. In "live"
mode (DAMP off), this pair has high-end clarity and a thick bottom end. With DAMP
enabled, baffles and carpeting help tighten up the bottom end and make for a quicker
response time.
CONDENSER MAN MONO
This tube condenser mic is placed in the left side of the tracking room (when viewed
from control room). In "live" mode (DAMP off), this mic has a punchy midrange and
thick bottom end. With DAMP enabled, baffles and carpeting help tighten up the bottom
end and tame the midrange.
CONDENSER 67 MONO
This tube condenser mic is placed in the right side of the tracking room by the drum
overheads (when viewed from control room). In "live" mode (DAMP off), this mic has
a smooth midrange and aggressive low end. With DAMP enabled, baffles and carpeting
remove subsonic low end.
RIBBON 84 MONO
This ribbon mic has an old school recording studio vibe. In "live" mode (DAMP off),
it has a dark treble response and overall midrange-based sound. With DAMP enabled,
baffles and carpeting remove midrange, add some treble, and make for a quicker
response time.
RIBBON 121 MONO
This modern ribbon mic adds depth and punch without getting in the way of the close
mics' high end. In "live" mode (DAMP off), it has a smooth treble response and extended
bass response. With DAMP enabled, baffles and carpeting tighten up the bottom end and
there is a quicker response time.
