65 •Transient ResponseOne of the key characteristics of various types of microphones is their transient response (i.e., the way that their dia- phragms respond to extremely rapid amplitude fluctuations, typically during a sound’s attack phase). Intuition would suggest that modeling changes in transient response between mics would be next to impossible — particularly changing a source mic with a slow response to a modeled mic with a fast response. Amazingly, that turns out not to be the case. The AVP’s models do model variations in transient response in both directions.
