Introducing the ML-2A Modeling Microphone from Slate Digital, the evolution of our award-winning Virtual Microphone System (VMS) that puts the sound of the finest vintage and modern mics at your fingertips.
The world’s top producers build mic collections over decades, at the cost of tens of thousands of dollars, because each vintage, rare, or high-end microphone is a unique voice; its tonal qualities, frequency response, and harmonic character shape the emotion and impact of a performance.
VMS ML-2A delivers a factory-matched pair of professional-quality, small-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphones that can do it all—on any instrument, in mono or stereo. They come paired with the comprehensive VMS library, featuring accurately modeled vintage and modern high-end microphones, giving you access to those iconic tones right in your studio. The ML-2A is the perfect companion to the vocal-optimized ML-1A.
Slate Digital ML2-A Matched Pair VMS Condenser Microphones Features:
The Ultimate Modeling Mic
Powered by the Slate Digital Virtual Microphone System plug-in, the ML-2A gives you access to the ultimate mic locker, right in your DAW. Instantly audition vintage, rare, even obscure mic models: from essential workhorses like the S-57 and S-421, to smooth ribbons like the S-121, legendary small-diaphragm condensers such as the S-451 and S-222, and even large-diaphragm classics like the S-414 and the revered tube S-67.
Built with precision hardware and premium components, the ML-2A goes beyond the original ML-2 to deliver enhanced detail, greater dynamic range, and added versatility. Designed for demanding recording environments, it handles high-SPL sources with ease and provides extra control through a bass roll-off switch and a -20dB pad. Supplied as a factory-matched pair with an included mounting bar, the ML-2A is a practical choice for capturing stereo recordings in both studio and on-location setups.
With zero-latency processing, you can monitor through mic models while tracking and still have the flexibility to change them later as your mix comes together. The future of mic modeling is here—and it’s better than ever.
Limitless Possibilities
Step into a world of sonic freedom with 27 microphone models. Both industry standards and creative options are included inside the Virtual Microphone System plug-in. Instantly audition and compare different microphones in your mix or blend the characteristics of two models to create a completely unique sound tailored to your recordings. Add color and vintage saturation with the Virtual Preamps Collection for a complete virtual front-end recording experience.
Slate Digital’s ever-growing microphone collection gives you unmatched flexibility in any recording session. From kick drums, snares, and toms to guitar and bass cabs, horns, and even vocals, the ML-2A covers it all. This level of versatility, once exclusive to world-class studios, is now within reach. As Slate Digital develops new mic models for VMS, they will automatically be added to your mic locker, just download the update and start using the new flavors in your productions, instantly.
Pro Quality
The ML-2A’s pro-grade hardware combines a gold-sputtered small-diaphragm cardioid capsule with low-noise electronics to deliver clean, detailed capture, a flat, extended frequency response, stable cardioid imaging, and rugged construction - optimized to get the most from the industry-leading Virtual Microphone System software.
The Leader in Mic Modeling
Since launching the original ML-1 in 2015, Slate Digital has led the way in mic modeling technology, providing more microphone models to users than any other. With the new ML-1A and ML-2A microphones in your studio, you have access to over 60 microphone models in total…and the collection continues to grow every year with new models added through simple software updates.
