Vintage Mic Emulations:
Berlin 184, Perth 55, Freiburg 6, Aalborg 4006, Hamburg 40

Berlin 184
Berlin 184 is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone and your top choice when recording cymbals, brass or percussion. It comes with a capsule with a cardioid polar pattern and can handle both extreme sound pressure levels, and subtle dynamics from acoustic instruments. It will suit both the rock'n'roll life and the chamber or orchestral setting. Signature German precision and sound is guaranteed.

Perth 55
Perth 55 is a small-diaphragm, true-condenser cardioid microphone with an omnidirectional capsule. It's very suitable for recording acoustic instruments, overheads and live performances.

Freiburg 6
No off-axis noise, no feedback, no unwanted audio signal in your recording. Instead, the cardioid Freiburg 6 microphone is focused on capturing voice or musical instruments with enviable attention to detail and no coloration whatsoever.

Aalborg 4006
Modeled after an omnidirectional microphone, which has become an industry standard, Aalborg 4006 will allow you to achieve outstanding detail and depth. Our emulation is a dream come true for engineers for its natural sound, astonishing sensitivity, linear frequency response and extremely low noise-floor. Great for recording vocals or acoustic instruments, including guitars, woodwinds, brass etc.

Hamburg 40
Hamburg 40 is a versatile condenser microphone that can save your a** even if you're not recording in the best space possible. It'shines bright when used for recording vocals or speech, but its low noise-floor and neutral directional specs are a guarantee for balanced sound when recording pretty much any sound source.
