![]() Slate Digital’s CEO Steven Slate has helped generate some of the hype, of course, and his highly personalised, ultra-confident marketing style has made him something of a polarising figure in the world of pro-audio. It’s perhaps not surprising, then, that the release of the Slate Digital Virtual Microphone System - or VMS for short - has created something of a stir in the industry. It has generally been considered extremely difficult, if not impossible, to truly model how different microphones respond to any given source, from any angle, in any space. Microphones, however, have been among the toughest nuts to crack. ![]() Even a studio’s live room can be recreated to some extent, thanks to increasingly advanced room-modelling software and convolution-based reverb. Pretty much every classic compressor, EQ, analogue tape recorder or effects unit in the history of recorded music is now seemingly available to use in our DAWs with the minimum of fuss. Most hardware components of the traditional recording studio are now available in digitally modelled or ‘virtual’ plug-in software versions. Can this unique combination of software and hardware really recreate the sound of some of the most revered microphones in the world? We put the VMS up against the originals to find out!
