Wow, you beat Appshopper to the punch on this one.
Wish I could take the credit, but I got it from Appsliced. Between those two I don't miss much.
Mmmm. Is the app compatible with just a mic from an interface? Everything online seems to intimate it only works with the IK Multimedia line of mics.
An old thread has a few posts saying it worked as an AudioBus effect & an Auria insert...still the way it is?
I know the app being free makes experimenting a no risk proposition but it's over 200MB to install so its like "Ehhhh...."
You can always grab an delete.
Thanks for the heads up.

Im seeing Mic Room (not the Free version) with in-app purchases. Wasn't clear to me what the difference is between both versions.
There are a few of these mic swapping apps around. What advantage to they provide for audio production? Anyone using them regularly?
I don't know the IK version, but recently used the old Antares modeller (Pro-Tools TDM).
The IK claim that it gives you access to the 'original' mics is plain bs.
But it works really well to add color to any cheapo (either sterile or over-brittle) condensor mic... at the expense of a somewhat blurred signal.
It sounds more 'pleasing' and adds some body to a flat tone.
The method is similiar to modelling guitar cabinets by convolution (impulse resonses), hence the size of the app.
Such a 'modeller' is much easier to apply than EQ, as it works dynamically and is not a static setting.
In my test setup I used the iPad's internal mic (which has no character on it's own) and choose a Beyer M500 as target because I have one myself).
The result indeed got some 'color' in the proper direction, but was far from a take with the physical microphone.
bottom line: it doesn't replace a good mic, but can make things sound 'sweeter' in mix context with few effort if you're on a tight budget.
They are modeled microphones (we've been modeling microphones for years), and providing you use either one of the source microphones (not just our microphones) you will get results that are indeed very close to the microphones modeled as output. If you use another mic it will work but will be more of an added coloration as described above. I hope that helps.
