Over the years there have been some attempts at producing realistic sounding mic modelling solutions but this concept never really took off in the culture of audio production.

There’s no denying that we are utterly spoilt for choice when it comes to analogue emulations. Whether you like it or not analogue modelling plays a significant role in today’s recording world.
