Discrete MP - Two-Channel Ultra Linear Microphone Preamplifier with Edge Modeling Microphone
The new Edge Strip - an all-in-one solution for high-quality studio recordings with vintage analog sound.
This compact set delivers the same audio quality as a selection of vintage microphones and a rack full of analog gear. The era of spending tens of thousands of euros on a collection of vintage microphones is over. Most engineers can only dream of using such expensive microphones. The Edge Strip makes that dream a reality. You can now add high-end studio hardware to your setup for a fraction of the original cost.
The Edge Strip is designed to reproduce a wide range of vintage microphones, preamps, equalizers, and compressors. It consists of the renowned Antelope Audio Edge modeling microphone - a large-diaphragm dual-capsule condenser microphone specially designed to replicate the expressiveness and character of costly classic microphones.
It also includes the Discrete MP, a fully analog two-channel microphone preamplifier, with the typical crystal-clear sound of Antelope Audio. Edge Strip users benefit from a set of free plugins including a compressor designed by Antelope Audio founder Igor Levin, the Stay Levin.
Analog Design with Discrete Components
The Edge Strip offers a natural analog sound combined with the advantages of precise digital control. The Discrete MP features two combined XLR+TRS inputs, as well as two TRS outputs. The discrete analog circuits of the Discrete MP provide up to 61 dB of maximum gain and full control over coloration, clarity, and character of the preamps. Additionally, the USB connection provides an easy way to remotely control the Edge Strip comfortably from your computer. Each Edge modeling microphone is equipped with a special dual-sided capsule whose diaphragms are gold-coated with a thickness of 3 microns. This allows us to perform multidimensional modeling and emulate a variety of microphones, polar patterns, and even control the proximity effect.
Experience Edge at Its Best
Antelope Audio's engineering team designed the Discrete MP to perfectly complement the Edge modeling microphone. The Discrete MP and the Edge modeling microphone are fully analog, meaning they will work with any system. Thanks to its dedicated calibration oscillator, the Discrete MP easily adapts to all studio setups, even those where precise gain matching between two channels is not possible. When connecting to a new system, simply activate the built-in oscillator to calibrate the Discrete MP for perfect gain adjustment.
Pure Sound in a Small Box
Use the Discrete MP to capture the color of your favorite microphone with crystal-clear detail. Or pair the Edge modeling microphone with your preferred preamp to create unique sounds. However, using the Discrete MP with the Edge modeling microphone reveals its full potential. Both units use discrete component analog circuits and were designed by Igor Levin himself to perfectly complement each other. By using the free native plugins, you can explore countless combinations of microphones, preamps, and vintage studio gear to achieve the perfect sound.
AFX Effects
The Edge Strip includes our custom AFX signal processors, featuring a growing list of high-quality microphone emulations, giving you access to proven industry standards. The AFX experts, in collaboration with analog specialists and microphone designers, have developed these microphone emulations. The Edge Strip includes 4 vintage microphone emulations, 3 classic German preamp emulations, our famous Stay Levin compressor, and a vintage equalizer to help you shape the perfect sound - all for free! If thats not enough, you can upgrade with dozens of other modeled units available in our FPGA FX library. Bring your recordings to life using the remarkable sounds of vintage gear. Hear the past and record the future with Antelopes native DSP AFX effects. Each plugin uses a high degree of oversampling and precise floating-point calculations to accurately model vintage effects with unparalleled detail. Even when emulating microphones, preamps, and signal processors, you can relax knowing the Edge Strip offers minimal latency and the signature sound of Antelope Audio.
