VSL MIR 3D RoomPack 2 - Studios & Stages

Explore three top - notch recording spaces with VSL MIR 3D RoomPack 2. First up is Teldex Studio Berlin. Originally a 1890s ballroom, it's been a recording studio since the 1950s. Its 4,900 square - foot sound stage has a unique sonic signature, captured by about 6,000 impulse responses. Vienna MIR Pro 3D presents this hall from two angles and three main microphone positions. Next is Recording Studio Weiler, once called 'Little America' by producer Peter Wolf. Designed by LA architects, it has 5,300 impulse responses in two rooms. The 1,830 - square - foot live tracking room has acoustic wave birch paneling on its 13 - foot ceiling, and the 323 - square - foot stone room is great for drums. Ideal for rock, pop, or jazz. Finally, ORF Funkhaus offers three studios. Over 13,000 individual impulse responses were captured. The Grand On - Air Studio, with a 1.5 - second reverb time, has a stage covering half its floor and seats 230. Studio 2 has a 0.5 - second reverb time, perfect for contemporary music. Studio 3 has a 0.8 - second reverb time and is versatile for all music styles.

Using VSL MIR 3D RoomPack 2 is easy. First, select the studio that suits your music style. For a more natural, reverberant sound, Teldex Studio Berlin or the Grand On - Air Studio at ORF Funkhaus are great choices. If you need a 'dry' sound for precise localization, go for Studio 2 at ORF Funkhaus. When setting up, position your microphones according to the provided main microphone positions. This will give you the best capture of the room's unique acoustics. Remember to keep your recording equipment in good condition. Clean your microphones regularly to ensure optimal sound quality. Also, store your impulse response files in a safe place to avoid data loss. If you're new to using impulse responses, start with some simple recordings and experiment with different settings to get the hang of it.
