Here’s what Antelope say:

Mic Modelling in Three Dimensions!

Edge Quadro is the most advanced modeling microphone by Antelope Audio. This stereo mic features two large dual-membrane capsules and a rotating head.

Delivering four channels for independent processing will allow for stereo techniques like M/S, X/Y, Blumlein, and even 3D sound. Edge Quadro is the only microphone you’ll need for stereo and 360-degree sound recording.

Key Features:

  • Dual capsule dual membrane condenser – Two capsules perfectly aligned to eliminate any phase related problems made of 6-micron gold-sputtered dual-membranes each.
  • Rotatable head – Top head can be rotated at any angle even while recording so you can monitor any possibility for capturing your source.
  • Individual emulation and polar pattern for each head – Achieve anything from M/S, X/Y, Blumlein and 360 recording with a total of 18 emulations!

An Epic Mic Emulation Library

Edge Quadro boasts an extensive and ever-expanding library of classic mic emulations, with 11 legendary microphone models already available and 7 more soon to be released. The smart control panel allows users to pick two different mic emulations simultaneously, one for each head of the microphone.

Experiment Like Never Before

The Edge Quadro heads offer next-level precision and adjustability. The upper head can be rotated noiselessly, even while the microphone is actively recording. Each Quadro head can also function in all possible polar patterns (cardioid, figure-8, omnidirectional and anything in between).

These features combine to deliver virtually limitless variations in tonality and stereo images and enable a wide range of creative effects.

High Compatibility

The Edge emulations are designed to work hand-in-hand with Antelope’s own precision mic preamps and converters. For maximum accuracy, Edge Quadro can be used with any of Antelope Audio’s mic preamp-equipped interfaces, whose built-in FPGA processing capabilities allow real-time vintage mic emulation.

However, Edge Quadro also includes Antelope’s native mic emulation plug-ins, meaning you can use any third-party audio interface and even change modeling settings after recording. Available in VST, AU and AAX formats for both macOS and Windows, Antelope’s native AFX plug-ins* provide everything we’ve come to expect from their industry-leading FPGA FX, with minimal latency, a high degree of oversampling and precise floating-point calculations.

Specifications

Capsule

A capsule microphone refers to the part of the microphone that contains the diaphragm and the internal components responsible for converting sound waves into an electrical signal. It is essentially the “heart” of the microphone. The capsule can be of various types, including dynamic, condenser, or ribbon, each with its own characteristics in terms of sound quality and application. For example, condenser capsules are known for their sensitivity and detailed sound capture, making them ideal for studio recording, while dynamic capsules are more durable and often used in live settings. The design and size of the capsule influence the microphone’s frequency response, sensitivity, and overall sound quality.

Condenser

Condenser Microphones are highly sensitive microphones that capture sound with exceptional detail and clarity, making them ideal for studio recording of vocals, acoustic instruments, and other nuanced sources. They work by using a lightweight diaphragm and require phantom power to operate. Known for their wide frequency response and accuracy, condenser mics are a go-to choice for professional audio engineers and producers.

Diaphragm

The diaphragm in a microphone is a thin, flexible membrane that vibrates when sound waves hit it. It plays a crucial role in converting sound into an electrical signal. When sound waves strike the diaphragm, it moves in response to the variations in air pressure, and this movement is then translated into an electrical current by the microphone’s internal components. The size and material of the diaphragm can significantly impact the microphone’s sound characteristics, such as its sensitivity, frequency response, and overall sound quality. Larger diaphragms typically provide a fuller, warmer sound, while smaller diaphragms may offer a more detailed and accurate reproduction of high frequencies.

RECORDING EQUIPMENT

Recording Equipment encompasses the essential tools used to capture, process, and produce audio in both professional and home studios. This includes microphones, audio interfaces, mixers, preamps, monitors, and recording software, all working together to achieve high-quality sound. Whether for music, podcasts, voiceovers, or film, recording equipment is key to transforming performances into polished, professional audio.

Stereo

A stereo microphone is a type of microphone designed to capture sound in two channels (left and right) to create a sense of depth and space, mimicking how we hear sound in real life. These microphones typically use two microphones arranged in a specific configuration, such as X/Y, A/B, or M/S (Mid/Side), to record sound from two distinct directions, resulting in a stereo effect. Stereo microphones are commonly used in recording environments where capturing the natural ambience or spatial characteristics of a sound source is important, such as in music production, field recording, or film sound design. They provide a more immersive listening experience compared to mono microphones, which capture sound from a single point.

Studio Microphones

Studio Microphones are designed for professional recording environments, delivering high-fidelity sound capture with exceptional detail and clarity. They are used for vocals, instruments, voiceovers, podcasts, and more, offering a wide range of pickup patterns and sensitivities to suit different recording needs. Studio mics often prioritise low noise, wide frequency response, and natural sound reproduction, making them a key tool in any recording setup.
