Edge Modeling Microphone by Antelope Audio
Edgeis a modeling microphone by Antelope Audio, suited for the manufacturer'sreal-time mic preamp modeling. Combined with the already highly acclaimedAntelope Audio FPGA Vintage Compressors & EQ’s, this new modelingmicrophone will comprise a true cutting edge front end that will usher in a newera for modern recording.
Edge features dualedge-terminated capsules for a smooth/natural sound reproducing theexpressiveness and character of expensive classic microphones.
Antelope Audio designedgroundbreaking fully discrete electronics. Hand selected capsules encased in acarefully crafted enclosure with contours and shape for optimal sonicperformance. Edge is an exquisite large diaphragm microphone with excellenttransient response and capable of multiple polar patterns.
The true voices of vintagemicrophones
Inside the FPGA Accusonic 3Dmodeling engine you can transform both Edge and Verge into vintage replicasgiving you complete control over proximity effect, off-axis response and evenallow you to change polar patterns during or after recording. Choose from a collection of classic andexpensive microphones and track the results as you monitor live, bringing out amusician’s best possible performance.

Berlin 47 FT
Berlin 47 FT will allow you to finally enjoy theauthentic sound of one of the most popular microphones in history of audiorecording. This emulation perfectly combines the wide dynamic range and meticulous attentionto detail of the hardware original. It's perfect for capturing vocals, acousticinstruments and even aggressive sound sources as kick drums.
Berlin 87
Thismicrophone is the way to go when recording piano, vocals, overheads, guitars,strings, brass section, percussion. Honestly, there's almost nothing thatBerlin 87 can't handle. We're bringing this 1970s classic straight from thegood old times to your 21st century studio. No pro can live withoutan 87 so it was high time you got yours!
Berlin 67
Berlin 67carries the true sound of an iconic tube condenser microphone with multiplepolar patterns. This German legend can record in omni, cardiod or figure eight.Its popularity is due to its signature sound and flexibility. Berlin 67 ispowerful multi-purpose mic that is a must-have for any studio.
Tokyo800T
Wondering what lies behindthe silky and smooth vocals on your favorite records? Chances are high thatit's exactly the Japanese microphone legend we modeled our Tokyo 800T after.This vintage tube mic is a top choice for all masters of vocals recordings.With a super low noise-floor and extreme sensitivity, it's also a great fit forrecording acoustic guitar sessions.
Comingsoon:
BerlinM103
AnotherGerman studio legend is now available in the FPGA domain. Berlin M103 has beenmodeled after the iconic large-diaphragm condenser mic with a Berlin 87style-capsule and transformerless circuitry. This cardiod microphone is signature for its low noise-floorand wide dynamic range. Berlin M103 is praised not only by music engineers specializedin classical music but by sound designers and Foley artists from the top tiersof the movie industry.
Berlin57
Berlin 57comes straight from 1957 and it sounds as great as you can expect. The mic owesits specific sound to a large-diaphragm capsule with a PVC membrane and atriode tube. Users can switch between omni, cardiod and figure of eight polarpatterns. Just hear how this one captures vocals and you'll fall in love withit.
Vienna12
A classiclarge diaphragm condenser and a highly sought after tube microphone. Vienna 12is modelled after the latest revision of the original, which means – low noise,wide frequency response (from 30 Hz to 20 kHz) and switchable polar patterns.Those include cardioid, figure eight and omni.
Oxford4038
Before becoming a preferred tool for professionalrecording engineers, this bi-directional ribbon microphone was widely popularin broadcasting studios all around the UK. The reasons? Its ability to capturesound with a smooth and wide frequency response, its high sensitivity and lackof transient distortion. The resulting sound? Natural and clear, fitting bothvoice and delicate acoustic instruments. No wonder it's highly sought after andstill used to this very day.
Sacramento121R
TheSacramento 121R is modeled after the first commercially available vacuum tuberibbon mic. It offers natural and pure sound plus extended dynamic range, whichis actually even higher than its predecessor models.
Vienna414
Vienna414 is a flexible multi-pattern condenser microphone. The original, whichinspired our emulation, has been used in top recording facilities, broadcaststudios and performance venues all around the globe. It allows users to switchbetween whole nine polar patterns and offers unique dynamic range, frequencyresponse and spatial detailing. It's perfect for lead vocals and soloinstruments but also as a room mic for drum recordings or classical musicsessions.
Berlin49T
Theoriginal behind Berlin 49T was a revolution on its own for its unique two cardioidcondenser systems architecture. This would mean nothing if the resulting sounddidn't feature a next level smoothness with strong low-end and more thanconvincing highs. You'll find this one on all your favorite 1950s and 1960spop, soul and jazz recordings. It's highly suitable for vocals but its greatbass response makes it perfect for drums and brass as well.
