Edge Duo is a dual-diaphragm condenser microphone that provides us with an authentic emulation of multiple vintage microphone patterns.

This high-quality large-diaphragm, dual-capsule condenser microphone captures voices and instruments with impeccable clarity, depth, and detail, making it the perfect starting point for emulating a wide range of timeless studio microphones.

Edge Duo can draw on an extensive and constantly expanding collection of classic microphone emulations, with 11 legendary microphone models already available and 7 more coming soon. All have been meticulously measured from the originals, carefully selected at one of Germany's most respected facilities.

Built with a specially designed low-resonance body featuring an elegant matte black finish, the Edge Duo features a 6-micron gold-sputtered dual-diaphragm capsule. It provides an incredibly smooth, rich, and organic response that Antelope Audio's powerful modeling engine can render into the true sound of some of the most expensive and sought-after microphones in the history of audio recording.

The Edge Duo dual-diaphragm capsule design feeds two separate XLR output channels via the included Y-cable. The signal from each diaphragm is processed and recombined individually, providing the most accurate microphone modeling on the market. This approach not only means that users can vary the polar pattern from the plugin, even after recording. It also allows the Edge Duo to accurately emulate the on-axis and off-axis response characteristic of each microphone for true multidimensional microphone modeling.

The Edge emulations are designed to work hand-in-hand with Antelope's precision microphone preamplifiers and converters. For maximum accuracy, Edge Duo can be used with any of the interfaces equipped with an Antelope Audio microphone preamplifier, whose built-in FPGA processing capabilities allow for real-time classic microphone emulation.

Edge Duo also includes native Antelope microphone emulation plugins, meaning you can use any third-party audio interface and even change the modeling settings after recording. Available in VST, AU, and AAX formats for macOS and Windows, Antelope's native AFX plugins * provide everything we can expect from their industry-leading FPGA FX, with minimal latency, a high degree of oversampling, and precise floating-point calculations.

* iLok 2 or 3 required. Not included in the package.

Following the success of the acclaimed Edge modeling microphone, Antelope Audio's new Edge family introduces three new large-diaphragm condenser microphones: the fixed cardioid Edge Solo, the multi-pattern Edge Duo, and the four-capsule, four-output Edge Quadro, capable of recording in 360° stereo.
Together with Antelope's constantly expanding range of FPGA and native AFX microphone emulation plugins, the Edge family makes Antelope's microphone modeling technology available to an even wider range of users and recording applications.
