Are Microphone IR Impulses kind of Pointless?
Like... okay say you want to put an impulse on the vocal track. the vocals are never going to sound as clean as a DI'd guitar because they have been naturally compressed and tonality altered due to the microphone which recorded them in the 1st place right? making it impossible to actually record a di of vocals
or say you have a pre amp and you decide you want to add an impulse of a 1960 cab. that 1960 has already been tonality altered due to the microphone which has picked up the noise generated for making the impulse.
thus wouldn't adding a microphone impulse kind of not work on a track? it would example be like taking a recording of a pre amp & a cab and running the cab's tone through another impulse of another cab making it overly bass, mid & treble heavy according to the impulse.
so where could it be used in a real world environment? just acoustic guitar?
