Simply an incredible value from Slate and a product literally revolutionizing the microphone industry overnight. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Hardware:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eML-1\u003c\/strong\u003e: The ML-1 microphone is arguably the most important part of the Virtual Microphone System, because everything starts here. With a shock-mounted Mylar capsule sputtered in gold and custom-made components, the ML-1 is NOT just any ordinary microphone. It was designed in tandem with the VMS-ONE preamp to provide an exceedingly flat output for the VMS microphone and preamp software modules to act upon.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVMS-ONE\u003c\/strong\u003e: The VMS-ONE preamp ensures that your A\/D converter sees the flattest signal possible from the ML-1 microphone. It utilizes state-of-the-art amplifiers to produce the purest and most linear signal possible, giving the VMS plugin module the ability to transform your recordings with hyper-accurate reproductions of classic microphones and preamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Mics:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFG-47\u003c\/strong\u003e: This mic will take you back in time. It’s lush, warm, fat, present, and BIG sounding. If you have a wimpy source, it gets fixed with this mic. It doesn’t have that modern sizzly top-end air, but it takes EQ in the top end like a champion. I love adding some Custom Series 10 kHz when using this mic. By pushing the intensity, it gets even darker, moodier, and a bit more saturated. Don’t just use this microphone on vocals. Put it on drums as a room mic. Put it on the outside of a kick. Put it on horns, strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFG-800\u003c\/strong\u003e: The FG-800 is based on a solid performing studio vocal mic. This is a bright and airy microphone. That airy, clear, bright tone works perfectly in a pop mix with no EQ needed. When this mic works, nothing will sound as good. And it actually works a lot, even on modern male rock vocals.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFG-251\u003c\/strong\u003e: The FG-251 sounds so good on just about everything. It’s the perfect balance of top, middle, and bottom. There is something so flattering about this mic that every singer just sounds better than they do in the actual room. The intensity is really fun with this one. This mic pairs well with both preamps, so try them both using the VMR A-\u0026gt;B system.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVMS now includes the Classic Tubes 2 expansion pack!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFG-12:\u003c\/strong\u003e The FG-12 emulates an Austrian classic known for being incredibly smooth and rich-sounding.

The high-resolution, dual-channel L22 large-diaphragm condenser microphone captures crystal-clear recordings, while the included Sphere plug-in lets you change mic type, polar pattern, placement and more, before ad after tracking. With the current 1.4 version of Sphere users have access to over 30 individual models.

By utilizing two channels, the Sphere L22 is able to capture stereo recordings with stunning depth. Simply rotate the Sphere L22 90-degrees and capture separate channels from each capsule. You can even use different mic models on the left and right channels using the Sphere 180 plug-in.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSPHERE L22 MICROPHONE\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eNot only is the Sphere L22 able to capture the sound of classic microphones—it actually improves them. With a self-noise level of just 7 dB-A SPL, Sphere L22 is whisper-quiet in comparison to most vintage mics. And with a maximum SPL of 140 dB, you can place Sphere L22 inside kick drums, against the grill of guitar amps and more without worrying about damaging the capsule. Plus, Sphere L22 has a rugged, durable frame that stands up to the most demanding studio sessions so you don’t have to worry about accidentally destroying a vintage ribbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSPHERE PLUG-IN\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sphere L22 Microphone system works with any interface with at least two inputs.

This allows the Sphere system to precisely reconstruct how different microphones respond to the soundfield. In contrast, other microphone modeling technologies apply EQ to filter the sound from what is essentially a conventional microphone. This is fundamentally no different from using EQ to process a recorded track.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe Sphere L22 microphone modeling system comprises this precision dual-channel microphone, plus an audio plug-in for your DAW. The software plug-in does all of the DSP processing used to create the microphone models.

It’s lush, warm, fat, present, and BIG sounding. If you have a wimpy source, it gets fixed with this mic. It doesn’t have that modern sizzly top-end air, but it takes EQ in the top end like a champion. I love adding some Custom Series 10 kHz when using this mic. By pushing the intensity, it gets even darker, moodier, and a bit more saturated. Don’t just use this microphone on vocals. Put it on drums as a room mic. Put it on the outside of a kick.

The microphone is designed with the artist\/engineer in mind who needs one solution for numerous situations and applications. In addition to the high-performance hardware, Antelope Audio has developed a proprietary Modeling Engine that adds advanced tone-shaping to the microphone’s own pristine sound.

The modeling engine enhances your workflow by allowing you to switch between microphone emulations with a single click during recording or post-production. The dual-diaphragm design complements this further by also enabling polarity alterations at any stage of your production. When paired with an Antelope Audio interface you can benefit from imperceptible latency while picking the best mic emulation for the job during tracking.

It doesn’t have that modern sizzly top-end air, but it takes EQ in the top end like a champion. I love adding some Custom Series 10 kHz when using this mic. By pushing the intensity, it gets even darker, moodier, and a bit more saturated. Don’t just use this microphone on vocals. Put it on drums as a room mic. Put it on the outside of a kick.

With the current 1.4 version of Sphere users have access to over 30 individual models.

You can even use different mic models on the left and right channels using the Sphere 180 plug-in.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSPHERE L22 MICROPHONE\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNot only is the Sphere L22 able to capture the sound of classic microphones—it actually improves them. With a self-noise level of just 7 dB-A SPL, Sphere L22 is whisper-quiet in comparison to most vintage mics. And with a maximum SPL of 140 dB, you can place Sphere L22 inside kick drums, against the grill of guitar amps and more without worrying about damaging the capsule.

This is fundamentally no different from using EQ to process a recorded track.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sphere L22 microphone modeling system comprises this precision dual-channel microphone, plus an audio plug-in for your DAW. The software plug-in does all of the DSP processing used to create the microphone models. Using a plug-in, instead of DSP processing built into the mic, has the major advantage of allowing the user to change all of the modeling settings, such as mic type and polar pattern, after the audio is recorded.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Components\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eL22 Microphone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSphere L22 Microphone – high precision, dual-capsule, large-diaphragm condenser studio microphone, which can be used with or without modeling.

The N-version is based on a classic beige 421 from the 1960s and has a slightly warmer sound than the 421B, which is based on a current production black 421 and faithfully captures its slightly brighter character.

It's a great choice for lush, breathy vocals, without overly accentuating sibilance.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-67: The 67 is a very unique and wonderful mic that tends toward warm, yet without sounding dull. Townsend modeled a mid 1960s version. It really shines on distorted guitar amps where it can cut some of harshness, while maintaining detail.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-49K: Although the M49 used the same capsules as the U47, it has a number of “enhancements” which give it its iconic and distinctive sound. The center position on the pattern knob is approximately cardioid, but often the pattern was dialed in a little more exactly to get the best cardioid pattern possible. The model uses this “best” cardioid position.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSphere Linear: The Sphere Linear model provides ruler flat frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, as well as an extremely smooth and well controlled off-axis response.

The Neumann U47 analyzed for this model has a fully brass capsule with a screw-mounted mylar diaphragm and a genuine VF14 tube.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-87: The Neumann U87 was brought to market as a replacement for the U67, even though it sounds quite different. The LD-87 model is based on a mid-'70s version with a split backplate capsule which sounds slightly different from a modern 87. The high-pass filter and pad switch settings are also fully modeled.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-87 Modern: Based on a current production Neumann U87Ai, the LD-87 Modern emulates this classic large-diaphragm FET condenser and de facto standard for broadcast, voiceover, and many other applications. The third 87-type mic in the Sphere Core Collection, the LD-87 Modern is slightly brighter than the LD-87 Vintage.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-67 NOS: After the Berlin Wall fell, a warehouse was found with Neumann U67 parts on the East German side of the border.

The LD-12 is a great choice for lush, breathy vocals without overly accentuating sibilance.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-251: The LD-251 is based on the Telefunken ELA M 251 built for export to the US which has a 6072 tube and an original fully brass capsule. The 251 is one of the rarest and most highly regarded microphones of all time. It is the go-to vocal mic for many A-list artists, including Beyonce.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-800: The LD-800 model is based on the legendary Sony C800G. The 800G is often the perfect choice for a modern pop or hip-hop sound and is the go-to microphone for countless big-name artists, including Mariah Carey.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 Brass: The original AKG 414 with a brass-ringed capsule is one of the greatest studio mics of all time. It uses the same CK12 capsule as the legendary C12, although just about everything else is completely different from the electronics to the body design. The LD-414 Brass is a perfect choice for drum overheads, snare drum, and acoustic guitar.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 US: The LD-414 US is based on one of the most ubiquitous condenser microphones of all time, the later-period AKG 414. The mic uses essentially the same nylon capsule as the later production AKG 414 EB, so the sound is quite similar although a bit more neutral.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSD-416: The SD-416 is based on an industry-standard shotgun microphone, commonly used in the studio for voice-over and ADR duties. It is the go-to mic for that big voice-over sound in Hollywood-produced movie trailers that we're all so familiar with. The 416 also enjoys wide popularity in broadcast, tv, and film location sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSD-451: The SD-451 is based on the AKG 451 modular end-address small diaphragm condenser mic which has become an industry standard. The full complement of capsule options are modeled, so you have all the flexibility of the original. The two 75 Hz and 150 Hz high-pass filter options are also modeled from the original.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-121: Based on a Royer R-121 ribbon microphone with a fixed figure-8 pattern, this mic is unique in that the rear side of the figure-8 pattern is brighter than the front. It's a good option when the standard sound is a little too dark. The easiest way to achieve this alternate sound is to set the Axis control to 180 degrees.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-20: An industry standard, the Electro-Voice RE20 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone is used for everything from broadcasting and voiceovers to kick drums. The DN-20 captures the original mic's pleasant presence boost and sharp high-frequency dip that minimizes sibilance, as well as its consistent bass response regardless of its distance from the source.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-57: Introduced in 1965, the Shure SM57 is very likely the best selling studio microphone of all time. It can be a particularly good option when blended with other mics, such as ribbons and large diaphragm condensers, to achieve an overall more balanced sound. The DN-57 model is based on a recent production SM57.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-7: Based on the Shure SM7A, the same mic Bruce Swedien used to record Michael Jackson's vocals on Thriller, the DN-7 model captures the magic that has allowed it to hold its own with some of the best condensers ever made. The DN-7 is based on the \"A\" version, and when the Axis control is set to 180 degrees, the model emulates the mic without the windscreen installed. Some recording engineers prefer this sound and permanently remove the windscreen.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12A: The DN-12A model is based on a dynamic microphone from the 1950s which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The filter settings in the model are designed to complement this mic and can be used to achieve a more modern kick drum sound. The Proximity EQ control adjusts the amount of bass resonance in the model and is an easy way to dial in exactly the right sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409U: The 409 is an all-around great mic but it especially shines on electric guitar. It has a smooth top end particularly for a dynamic mic and the low-end response below about 100 Hz is greatly reduced which can help instruments and voice sit nicely in the mix. This version is from the 1980s. The 409 is no longer in production and it sounds quite different, and arguably much better than modern incarnations, such as the 609 and 906.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421B: The DN-421B is based on a current production black 421 which has a slightly brighter and modern sound than earlier incarnations.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Universal Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450876391527,"sku":"181547","price":999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/ua-sphere-lx_181547_1_16d66ea8-b535-4598-bc28-de40e35e0ab0.jpg?v=1787094913"},{"product_id":"universal-audio-sphere-dlx-modeling-microphone","title":"Universal Audio Sphere DLX Modeling Microphone","description":"\u003cp\u003eBased on the TEC Award-winning Sphere L22 acquired from Townsend Labs, the \u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Audio Sphere DLX\u003c\/strong\u003e is a premium stereo modeling microphone system capable of emulating 38 of the most renowned condenser, dynamic, and ribbon microphones from music history.

It features a hyper-cardioid polar pattern, giving you excellent off-axis rejection, and it's famous for capturing the drum sound on Led Zeppelin's ”When the Levee Breaks.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-4038 (DLX Only): The RB-4038 model is based on the Coles 4038 ribbon mic originally developed in the mid-'50s by the BBC and manufactured by STC (Standard Telephones and Cables). It excels on drum overheads and its inherent high-frequency roll off and large proximity effect are sometimes a liability at close distances, but at typical drum overhead distances it can have just the right balance.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-77DX Satin (DLX Only): The classic RCA 77DX is an iconic, multi-pattern ribbon that has graced the desks of many famous personalities, including David Letterman and Larry King. Countless musical legends, such as Bing Crosby, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, B.B. King and Johnny Cash, have also recorded with a 77. Wonderful for recording brass instruments, this mic is typically used with cardioid or figure-8 pattern, but the full complement of patterns from the original is provided.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-77DX Chrome (DLX Only): The RB-77DX Umber model is substantially darker and smoother than the RB-77DX Satin model, and works well on brighter, more strident sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-20: An industry standard, the Electro-Voice RE20 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone is used for everything from broadcasting and voiceovers to kick drums. The DN-20 captures the original mic's pleasant presence boost and sharp high-frequency dip that minimizes sibilance, as well as its consistent bass response regardless of its distance from the source.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-57: Introduced in 1965, the Shure SM57 is very likely the best selling studio microphone of all time. It can be a particularly good option when blended with other mics, such as ribbons and large diaphragm condensers, to achieve an overall more balanced sound. The DN-57 model is based on a recent production SM57.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-7: Based on the Shure SM7A, the same mic Bruce Swedien used to record Michael Jackson's vocals on Thriller, the DN-7 model captures the magic that has allowed it to hold its own with some of the best condensers ever made. The DN-7 is based on the \"A\" version, and when the Axis control is set to 180 degrees, the model emulates the mic without the windscreen installed. Some recording engineers prefer this sound and permanently remove the windscreen.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12A: The DN-12A model is based on a dynamic microphone from the 1950s which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The filter settings in the model are designed to complement this mic and can be used to achieve a more modern kick drum sound. The Proximity EQ control adjusts the amount of bass resonance in the model and is an easy way to dial in exactly the right sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12E (DLX Only): The DN-12E model is based on a dynamic microphone which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The later 12E version has an XLR connector on the bottom of the mic.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409N (DLX Only): The DN-409N is based on the earliest version in the 409 line of microphones. It has slightly more coloration than the newer ones and works well on many sources, including electric guitar and vocals. Notable uses of the 409N include vocal duties for Pink Floyd's Live at Pompeii concert video.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409U: The 409 is an all-around great mic but it especially shines on electric guitar. It has a smooth top end particularly for a dynamic mic and the low-end response below about 100 Hz is greatly reduced which can help instruments and voice sit nicely in the mix. This version is from the 1980s. The 409 is no longer in production and it sounds quite different, and arguably much better than modern incarnations, such as the 609 and 906.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421B: The DN-421B is based on a current production black 421 which has a slightly brighter and modern sound than earlier incarnations.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421N (DLX Only): DN-421N is based on a classic beige 421 from the 1960s. It has a slightly warmer sound than current production 421s. The 421 is unusual for a moving-coil dynamic microphone in that it has a large diaphragm. The larger diaphragm gives it greater low-end extension compared to typical dynamic mics, which makes it more suitable for recording bass instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421S (DLX Only): The DN-421S is based on one of the first 421 versions with a script logo.

Extensively used by The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, and countless others, only about 6,000 of these mics were produced. The Neumann U47 analyzed for this model has a fully brass capsule with a screw-mounted mylar diaphragm and a genuine VF14 tube.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-87: The Neumann U87 was brought to market as a replacement for the U67, even though it sounds quite different. The LD-87 model is based on a mid-'70s version with a split backplate capsule which sounds slightly different from a modern 87. The high-pass filter and pad switch settings are also fully modeled.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-87 Modern: Based on a current production Neumann U87Ai, the LD-87 Modern emulates this classic large-diaphragm FET condenser and de facto standard for broadcast, voiceover, and many other applications. The third 87-type mic in the Sphere Core Collection, the LD-87 Modern is slightly brighter than the LD-87 Vintage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-87 TK (DLX Only): The LD-87 TK model is based on a Neumann U87 modified by Tracy Korby. The modification extends the 87's response at both the low and high end, giving it a more modern sound but without accentuating sibilance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-67 NOS: After the Berlin Wall fell, a warehouse was found with Neumann U67 parts on the East German side of the border. In 1991 a limited production of U67 reissues were made from these new-old-stock parts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-67 (DLX Only): The Neumann U67 is a unique and wonderful mic that sounds warm without sounding dull. It shines on distorted guitar amps where it can reduce harshness while maintaining detail. The LD-67 model is based on a mid-'60s version with an EF86 tube and its high-pass filter and pad switch settings are fully modeled.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-49K (DLX Only): The Neumann U49 employs the same capsule used in the U47, but the response of the U49 is slightly smoother and less colored. The U49 also uses a Telefunken AC701 tube instead of the VF-14. The LD-49K model is based on a Neumann 49c, which was likely manufactured in the early '60s and has a U47 capsule with a screw-mounted mylar diaphragm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-563 (DLX Only): The LD-563 is based on an iconic East German bottle microphone from the mid-1960s. When set to cardioid, the model is based on an M7 capsule. When set to omni, the model is based on an M55k capsule. And in figure-8 the capsule used is an M8. The 563 with the M7 capsule is an absolute favorite for recording vocals, but it's not a one-trick pony. It has also found much use as a room mic for drums and many other applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-103: The LD-103 model is based on a Neumann TLM103 and gives you a nice presence peak in the 8 kHz to 12 kHz region.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-017T (DLX Only): A commissioned model of a current production Soyuz 017 TUBE large diaphragm microphone, created in partnership with Soyuz. It's a modern classic that is 100% hand-built in Tula, Russia. Popular uses include vocals and acoustic instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-37A (DLX Only): Used by countless icons from Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole to Jimi Hendrix, the LD-37A is based on a classic '50s Sony C-37A. Compared to other tube condensers, this mic sports a warm, smooth sound while also keeping the \"air\" and detail. It excels on vocals, electric guitars, and horns but it's also a popular choice for toms and drum overheads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-37P (DLX Only): A lesser known FET-version of the Sony C-37A, the 37P is slightly brighter and is an excellent choice for freshening up dull sounding sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-12: The LD-12 model is based on the iconic AKG C12 from the '50s, faithfully capturing its gorgeous high-end sheen and sparkle. The LD-12 is a great choice for lush, breathy vocals without overly accentuating sibilance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-251: The LD-251 is based on the Telefunken ELA M 251 built for export to the US which has a 6072 tube and an original fully brass capsule. The 251 is one of the rarest and most highly regarded microphones of all time. It is the go-to vocal mic for many A-list artists, including Beyonce.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-800: The LD-800 model is based on the legendary Sony C800G. The 800G is often the perfect choice for a modern pop or hip-hop sound and is the go-to microphone for countless big-name artists, including Mariah Carey.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 Brass: The original AKG 414 with a brass-ringed capsule is one of the greatest studio mics of all time. It uses the same CK12 capsule as the legendary C12, although just about everything else is completely different from the electronics to the body design. The LD-414 Brass is a perfect choice for drum overheads, snare drum, and acoustic guitar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 Nylon (DLX Only): In the late '70s, the AKG 414 began using a new capsule with a nylon mounting ring. The sound of these capsules are different and much of the high-end sparkle of the CK12 disappeared with the new capsule. While many people prefer the sound of the older capsule, the nylon version has a more neutral response which can work well on many sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 US: The LD-414 US is based on one of the most ubiquitous condenser microphones of all time, the later-period AKG 414. The mic uses essentially the same nylon capsule as the later production AKG 414 EB, so the sound is quite similar although a bit more neutral.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 T2 (DLX Only): The LD-414 T2 is based on a newer AKG 414 variant that was designed to recreate the sound of the old CK12 brass-ringed capsule but using a modern nylon-style capsule. While it is a good sounding mic, it never got all that close to duplicating the sound of the original 414s with CK12s. The sound is a bit \"scooped\" with less midrange compared to the previous versions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-BV1 (DLX Only): The LD-BV1 is based on a German-made Brauner VM1 mic that has garnered a devoted following. The mic modeled is owned by engineer Billy Bush (Paul McCartney, Snow Patrol) and was used by singer Shirley Manson to record the theme for the James Bond film, The World Is Not Enough.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSD-416: The SD-416 is based on an industry-standard shotgun microphone, commonly used in the studio for voice-over and ADR duties. It is the go-to mic for that big voice-over sound in Hollywood-produced movie trailers that we're all so familiar with. The 416 also enjoys wide popularity in broadcast, tv, and film location sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSD-451: The SD-451 is based on the AKG 451 modular end-address small diaphragm condenser mic which has become an industry standard. The full complement of capsule options are modeled, so you have all the flexibility of the original. The two 75 Hz and 150 Hz high-pass filter options are also modeled from the original.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRB-121: Based on a Royer R-121 ribbon microphone with a fixed figure-8 pattern, this mic is unique in that the rear side of the figure-8 pattern is brighter than the front. It's a good option when the standard sound is a little too dark. The easiest way to achieve this alternate sound is to set the Axis control to 180 degrees.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRB-160 (DLX Only): The RB-160 is an emulation of a vintage '60s beyerdynamic M160 double ribbon microphone. It features a hyper-cardioid polar pattern, giving you excellent off-axis rejection, and it's famous for capturing the drum sound on Led Zeppelin's ”When the Levee Breaks.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRB-4038 (DLX Only): The RB-4038 model is based on the Coles 4038 ribbon mic originally developed in the mid-'50s by the BBC and manufactured by STC (Standard Telephones and Cables). It excels on drum overheads and its inherent high-frequency roll off and large proximity effect are sometimes a liability at close distances, but at typical drum overhead distances it can have just the right balance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRB-77DX Satin (DLX Only): The classic RCA 77DX is an iconic, multi-pattern ribbon that has graced the desks of many famous personalities, including David Letterman and Larry King. Countless musical legends, such as Bing Crosby, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, B.B. King and Johnny Cash, have also recorded with a 77.

It is the go-to mic for that big voice-over sound in Hollywood-produced movie trailers that we're all so familiar with. The 416 also enjoys wide popularity in broadcast, tv, and film location sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSD-451: The SD-451 is based on the AKG 451 modular end-address small diaphragm condenser mic which has become an industry standard. The full complement of capsule options are modeled, so you have all the flexibility of the original. The two 75 Hz and 150 Hz high-pass filter options are also modeled from the original.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRB-121: Based on a Royer R-121 ribbon microphone with a fixed figure-8 pattern, this mic is unique in that the rear side of the figure-8 pattern is brighter than the front. It's a good option when the standard sound is a little too dark. The easiest way to achieve this alternate sound is to set the Axis control to 180 degrees.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-20: An industry standard, the Electro-Voice RE20 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone is used for everything from broadcasting and voiceovers to kick drums. The DN-20 captures the original mic's pleasant presence boost and sharp high-frequency dip that minimizes sibilance, as well as its consistent bass response regardless of its distance from the source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-57: Introduced in 1965, the Shure SM57 is very likely the best selling studio microphone of all time. It can be a particularly good option when blended with other mics, such as ribbons and large diaphragm condensers, to achieve an overall more balanced sound. The DN-57 model is based on a recent production SM57.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-7: Based on the Shure SM7A, the same mic Bruce Swedien used to record Michael Jackson's vocals on Thriller, the DN-7 model captures the magic that has allowed it to hold its own with some of the best condensers ever made. The DN-7 is based on the \"A\" version, and when the Axis control is set to 180 degrees, the model emulates the mic without the windscreen installed. Some recording engineers prefer this sound and permanently remove the windscreen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12A: The DN-12A model is based on a dynamic microphone from the 1950s which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The filter settings in the model are designed to complement this mic and can be used to achieve a more modern kick drum sound. The Proximity EQ control adjusts the amount of bass resonance in the model and is an easy way to dial in exactly the right sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409U: The 409 is an all-around great mic but it especially shines on electric guitar. It has a smooth top end particularly for a dynamic mic and the low-end response below about 100 Hz is greatly reduced which can help instruments and voice sit nicely in the mix. This version is from the 1980s. The 409 is no longer in production and it sounds quite different, and arguably much better than modern incarnations, such as the 609 and 906.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421B: The DN-421B is based on a current production black 421 which has a slightly brighter and modern sound than earlier incarnations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Universal Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450909945959,"sku":"187752","price":789.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/ua-sphere-lx_181547_1_034617f2-c96b-4c1a-8422-b1282e48ba5f.jpg?v=1787095055"},{"product_id":"slate-digital-ml-1-large-diaphragm-modeling-microphone-matte-black-demo-deal-open-box","title":"Slate Digital ML-1 Large Diaphragm Modeling Microphone - Matte Black (Demo Deal)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSlate Digital ML-1 Large Diaphragm Modeling Microphone\u003c\/strong\u003e is arguably the most important part of the Virtual Microphone System, because everything starts here.

It’s lush, warm, fat, present, and BIG sounding. If you have a wimpy source, it gets fixed with this mic. It doesn’t have that modern sizzly top-end air, but it takes EQ in the top end like a champion. I love adding some Custom Series 10 kHz when using this mic. By pushing the intensity, it gets even darker, moodier, and a bit more saturated. Don’t just use this microphone on vocals. Put it on drums as a room mic. Put it on the outside of a kick.

It is the go-to vocal mic for many A-list artists, including Beyonce.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-800: The LD-800 model is based on the legendary Sony C800G.

It uses the same CK12 capsule as the legendary C12, although just about everything else is completely different from the electronics to the body design. The LD-414 Brass is a perfect choice for drum overheads, snare drum, and acoustic guitar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 US: The LD-414 US is based on one of the most ubiquitous condenser microphones of all time, the later-period AKG 414.

The 416 also enjoys wide popularity in broadcast, tv, and film location sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSD-451: The SD-451 is based on the AKG 451 modular end-address small diaphragm condenser mic which has become an industry standard.

The two 75 Hz and 150 Hz high-pass filter options are also modeled from the original.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRB-121: Based on a Royer R-121 ribbon microphone with a fixed figure-8 pattern, this mic is unique in that the rear side of the figure-8 pattern is brighter than the front. It's a good option when the standard sound is a little too dark. The easiest way to achieve this alternate sound is to set the Axis control to 180 degrees.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-20: An industry standard, the Electro-Voice RE20 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone is used for everything from broadcasting and voiceovers to kick drums.

The DN-57 model is based on a recent production SM57.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-7: Based on the Shure SM7A, the same mic Bruce Swedien used to record Michael Jackson's vocals on Thriller, the DN-7 model captures the magic that has allowed it to hold its own with some of the best condensers ever made. The DN-7 is based on the \"A\" version, and when the Axis control is set to 180 degrees, the model emulates the mic without the windscreen installed. Some recording engineers prefer this sound and permanently remove the windscreen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12A: The DN-12A model is based on a dynamic microphone from the 1950s which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The filter settings in the model are designed to complement this mic and can be used to achieve a more modern kick drum sound. The Proximity EQ control adjusts the amount of bass resonance in the model and is an easy way to dial in exactly the right sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409U: The 409 is an all-around great mic but it especially shines on electric guitar. It has a smooth top end particularly for a dynamic mic and the low-end response below about 100 Hz is greatly reduced which can help instruments and voice sit nicely in the mix. This version is from the 1980s.

The high-pass filter and pad switch settings are also fully modeled.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-87 Modern: Based on a current production Neumann U87Ai, the LD-87 Modern emulates this classic large-diaphragm FET condenser and de facto standard for broadcast, voiceover, and many other applications.

It excels on vocals, electric guitars, and horns but it's also a popular choice for toms and drum overheads.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-37P (DLX Only): A lesser known FET-version of the Sony C-37A, the 37P is slightly brighter and is an excellent choice for freshening up dull sounding sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-12: The LD-12 model is based on the iconic AKG C12 from the '50s, faithfully capturing its gorgeous high-end sheen and sparkle. The LD-12 is a great choice for lush, breathy vocals without overly accentuating sibilance.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-251: The LD-251 is based on the Telefunken ELA M 251 built for export to the US which has a 6072 tube and an original fully brass capsule. The 251 is one of the rarest and most highly regarded microphones of all time. It is the go-to vocal mic for many A-list artists, including Beyonce.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-800: The LD-800 model is based on the legendary Sony C800G. The 800G is often the perfect choice for a modern pop or hip-hop sound and is the go-to microphone for countless big-name artists, including Mariah Carey.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 Brass: The original AKG 414 with a brass-ringed capsule is one of the greatest studio mics of all time. It uses the same CK12 capsule as the legendary C12, although just about everything else is completely different from the electronics to the body design. The LD-414 Brass is a perfect choice for drum overheads, snare drum, and acoustic guitar.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 Nylon (DLX Only): In the late '70s, the AKG 414 began using a new capsule with a nylon mounting ring. The sound of these capsules are different and much of the high-end sparkle of the CK12 disappeared with the new capsule. While many people prefer the sound of the older capsule, the nylon version has a more neutral response which can work well on many sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 US: The LD-414 US is based on one of the most ubiquitous condenser microphones of all time, the later-period AKG 414. The mic uses essentially the same nylon capsule as the later production AKG 414 EB, so the sound is quite similar although a bit more neutral.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-414 T2 (DLX Only): The LD-414 T2 is based on a newer AKG 414 variant that was designed to recreate the sound of the old CK12 brass-ringed capsule but using a modern nylon-style capsule. While it is a good sounding mic, it never got all that close to duplicating the sound of the original 414s with CK12s. The sound is a bit \"scooped\" with less midrange compared to the previous versions.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLD-BV1 (DLX Only): The LD-BV1 is based on a German-made Brauner VM1 mic that has garnered a devoted following. The mic modeled is owned by engineer Billy Bush (Paul McCartney, Snow Patrol) and was used by singer Shirley Manson to record the theme for the James Bond film, The World Is Not Enough.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSD-416: The SD-416 is based on an industry-standard shotgun microphone, commonly used in the studio for voice-over and ADR duties. It is the go-to mic for that big voice-over sound in Hollywood-produced movie trailers that we're all so familiar with. The 416 also enjoys wide popularity in broadcast, tv, and film location sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSD-451: The SD-451 is based on the AKG 451 modular end-address small diaphragm condenser mic which has become an industry standard. The full complement of capsule options are modeled, so you have all the flexibility of the original. The two 75 Hz and 150 Hz high-pass filter options are also modeled from the original.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-121: Based on a Royer R-121 ribbon microphone with a fixed figure-8 pattern, this mic is unique in that the rear side of the figure-8 pattern is brighter than the front. It's a good option when the standard sound is a little too dark. The easiest way to achieve this alternate sound is to set the Axis control to 180 degrees.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-160 (DLX Only): The RB-160 is an emulation of a vintage '60s beyerdynamic M160 double ribbon microphone. It features a hyper-cardioid polar pattern, giving you excellent off-axis rejection, and it's famous for capturing the drum sound on Led Zeppelin's ”When the Levee Breaks.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-4038 (DLX Only): The RB-4038 model is based on the Coles 4038 ribbon mic originally developed in the mid-'50s by the BBC and manufactured by STC (Standard Telephones and Cables). It excels on drum overheads and its inherent high-frequency roll off and large proximity effect are sometimes a liability at close distances, but at typical drum overhead distances it can have just the right balance.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-77DX Satin (DLX Only): The classic RCA 77DX is an iconic, multi-pattern ribbon that has graced the desks of many famous personalities, including David Letterman and Larry King. Countless musical legends, such as Bing Crosby, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, B.B. King and Johnny Cash, have also recorded with a 77. Wonderful for recording brass instruments, this mic is typically used with cardioid or figure-8 pattern, but the full complement of patterns from the original is provided.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRB-77DX Chrome (DLX Only): The RB-77DX Umber model is substantially darker and smoother than the RB-77DX Satin model, and works well on brighter, more strident sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-20: An industry standard, the Electro-Voice RE20 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone is used for everything from broadcasting and voiceovers to kick drums. The DN-20 captures the original mic's pleasant presence boost and sharp high-frequency dip that minimizes sibilance, as well as its consistent bass response regardless of its distance from the source.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-57: Introduced in 1965, the Shure SM57 is very likely the best selling studio microphone of all time. It can be a particularly good option when blended with other mics, such as ribbons and large diaphragm condensers, to achieve an overall more balanced sound. The DN-57 model is based on a recent production SM57.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-7: Based on the Shure SM7A, the same mic Bruce Swedien used to record Michael Jackson's vocals on Thriller, the DN-7 model captures the magic that has allowed it to hold its own with some of the best condensers ever made. The DN-7 is based on the \"A\" version, and when the Axis control is set to 180 degrees, the model emulates the mic without the windscreen installed. Some recording engineers prefer this sound and permanently remove the windscreen.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12A: The DN-12A model is based on a dynamic microphone from the 1950s which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The filter settings in the model are designed to complement this mic and can be used to achieve a more modern kick drum sound. The Proximity EQ control adjusts the amount of bass resonance in the model and is an easy way to dial in exactly the right sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-12E (DLX Only): The DN-12E model is based on a dynamic microphone which has gained wide use as a kick drum mic for its very unique tonal qualities. The later 12E version has an XLR connector on the bottom of the mic.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409N (DLX Only): The DN-409N is based on the earliest version in the 409 line of microphones. It has slightly more coloration than the newer ones and works well on many sources, including electric guitar and vocals. Notable uses of the 409N include vocal duties for Pink Floyd's Live at Pompeii concert video.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-409U: The 409 is an all-around great mic but it especially shines on electric guitar. It has a smooth top end particularly for a dynamic mic and the low-end response below about 100 Hz is greatly reduced which can help instruments and voice sit nicely in the mix. This version is from the 1980s. The 409 is no longer in production and it sounds quite different, and arguably much better than modern incarnations, such as the 609 and 906.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421B: The DN-421B is based on a current production black 421 which has a slightly brighter and modern sound than earlier incarnations.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421N (DLX Only): DN-421N is based on a classic beige 421 from the 1960s. It has a slightly warmer sound than current production 421s. The 421 is unusual for a moving-coil dynamic microphone in that it has a large diaphragm. The larger diaphragm gives it greater low-end extension compared to typical dynamic mics, which makes it more suitable for recording bass instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDN-421S (DLX Only): The DN-421S is based on one of the first 421 versions with a script logo. It has a slightly more colored sound than other 421s.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Universal Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451411820647,"sku":"518301","price":1179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/ua-sphere-dlx_518301_1.jpg?v=1787097141"}],"url":"https:\/\/vintageking1.myshopify.com\/collections\/recording-microphones-modeling-microphones.oembed","provider":"VINTAGE KING AUDIO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
