Samplicity announces Berlin Studio plugin

Flyo said:
Could be great to have individual spots of every player in situ of a section, pre panned, ready for every section. At least a pre panned right amount of the instrument itself, if there isn’t any plan or never would be such detailed captured chair spot.

I think this would only be useful for close/spot mic IRs as a preset where the panning is done in the UI, not in the recorded impulse response. There's already plenty of directional information baked into the tree, AB and surround microphones and Peter has provided plenty of tools to pan and widen/narrow the stereo field per microphone within the UI.

If the goal when developing this plugin is to match how OT libraries are recorded and placed, the spot mics are centered on the section/leader/player and panned accordingly in the default SINE patch within the GUI (usually).

Can you elaborate on this? I do not understand this question. Esp. why another reverb would make a difference in ERs / tail.

I'd interpreted the original post as a request for spot mics to have along with the other mic positions in BS so I was trying to brainstorm a way to simulate one and still have access to all the BS mic positions. I was thinking a close approximation would be a reverb with some pre delay on the ER and then just a little bit of tail. But I'm probably speaking out of turn because I am a very long distance away from being a sound engineer.

Ah, sorry, I missed the link to the other post

This use case - using microphones close to the instrument positions for only some reflections, a bit of tail and some positioning info - was never considered.

The main goal was to capture the acoustics from the perspective of the Decca Tree and the other hall microphones. Which also works very well with modelled instruments, imho.

All right, that's pretty understandable. And you are right, it sounds absolutely phoenomenal with modeled instruments. Best sound I ever got by far!

I have a question that is unrelated to the previous ones: how should I feed individual instruments into BS? Let's say I have three trumpets and I'm sending the three of them to the same BS instance with the Trumpets setting. Should I do any paning or volume adjustment on each individual track? I've been sending centered mono signals so far. Does it matter much? Let's say I'm not gonna use any dry signal or the source fader for this example.

Thanks for the attention!
