Slate Digital ML-2 Condenser Modeling Microphone, Black

Full Description

96kHz audio fidelity - crystal clear sound

The ML-2 utilizes advanced technology to provide superior audio. It is a small diaphragm condenser microphone that captures sound with incredible accuracy and clarity. Additionally, it has a low noise floor and is capable of recording at 96kHz with the lowest buffer size possible. This combination of features ensures the lowest possible latency.

'Dynamic Mode' switch

Utilising the onboard switch, you can adapt to any sound source, providing max SPL (sound pressure levels) so you can capture loud sound sources without distortion. Whilst increasing your volume range, the Dynamic switch will not affect the overall tonality of the microphone; ensuring you retain the sound or microphone model you have selected.

Virtual Microphone System - latency-free processing

With the accompanying software, the ML-2 microphone allows you to tap into the sound of a huge range of classic microphone styles, ranging from legendary vintage mics to modern-day classics with the simple click of a mouse. Using the VMS software alongside a low-latency interface allows you to eliminate latency when recording; allowing you to hear yourself using any of the mic models in real-time. In total, the virtual mic locker includes 19 different models to choose from - see below for the full list. The software includes a wide range of controls and tools including modelled analog studio gear such as EQ modules, effects and more.
