VS-880 Application Guide

Using the COSM Microphone Simulator

You can record a vocal using an inexpensive dynamic mic such as the Roland DR-20 and then,

using the Microphone Simulator in the VS8F-1 effects section, emulate the warmth and tone of a

much more expensive microphone. This can be done during the recording process or at any later

time, even at mix down. This processing can also be applied to line level signals, such as the

output from an acoustic guitar pickup. You do this by just inserting the microphone simulator into

the path of the channel you want to affect.

ACTION: Use the COSM Microphone Simulator to

emulate the sound of a vintage microphone

1. Press EFFECT (under EDIT CONDITION) until “EFFECT-1 PRM?” is displayed and

press YES/ENTER.

2. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select “B99=MicSimulator.”

3. Press YES/ENTER.

4. Press PARAMETER>> until “MCA:Input” is displayed and use the TIME/VALUE

dial to select the desired input/mic type.

5. Press PARAMETER>> until “MCA:OUT” is displayed and use the TIME/VALUE

dial to select the desired microphone algorithm. For example, if you want to make a

dynamic mic sound like a vintage condenser mic, select “Sml.Dy” in step 4 and

“Vnt.Cn” in step 5.

6. From INPUT MIX mode, hold SHIFT and press EFFECT-1 [CH EDIT button 7].

7. Press the desired CH EDIT button (1-8) and use the TIME/VALUE dial to select

“Insert.”

8. Set the corresponding STATUS button to SOURCE (orange) to hear the microphone

simulation.
