Instrument Reflexion Filter Manual Electronics
SE Electronics Instrument Reflexion Filter Manual Thank you for buying the sE Electronics Instrument Reflexion Filter. Although the main idea behind this product is to facilitate ‘dry’ and ‘separated’ instrument recordings we’d be very interested to hear about novel applications from you, so please do contact us with your ideas; we are always glad to listen as it helps us improve and develop the product, and the information we can supply to other sE users.
Using Your Instrument Reflexion Filter A spring-loaded plunger in the side of the central tube is used to secure stick-type microphones and a good starting position is to get the microphone capsule roughly level with the front edge of the filter. The easy was to do this is to put the IRF face down on a table, adjust the microphone position by pulling the spring plunger to release the microphone, then lower it so that the microphone capsule end is also touching the table.
Using Your Instrument Reflexion Filter The IRF is also invaluable on acoustic guitar recordings, particularly if you prefer to use omni or figure-of-eight pattern mics rather than cardioids as these are very sensitive at the rear — the direction looking away from the instrument. By shielding the rear of the microphone with an IRF, the amount of spill from other instuments, as well as reflections from walls, is again reduced by a very worthwhile amount.
