Description

IF YOU HAVE SPENT ANY TIME LATELY flipping thorough the pages of pro-audio magazines, you’ve almost certainly noticed the intense focus on microphones. From the proliferation of exotic new mics to the almost cult-like following of certain historical classics, never has the choice been greater. Or the prices higher. A perfect time, in fact, for Antares to introduce our new Microphone Modeler. Using our patented Spectral Shaping Tool (TM) technology, we’ve created digital models of a wide variety of microphones, from historical classics to modern exotics, as well as a selection of industry-standard workhorses. Simply tell the Microphone Modeler what microphone you are actually using and what microphone you’d like it to sound like. It’s as simple as that.

Just Like Being There

Not only do the models reproduce sonic characteristics that make each microphone unique, but they also give you control of each mic’s specific options. Does the mic have a low cut filter? If so, it’s in the model. Wind screen on or off? Close or far placement? Each option results in the same sonic effect that it would have with the actual modeled mic. And for that final touch of perfection, you can even add some tasty tube saturation. With the Microphone Modeler, you can afford to record every track through a model of the specific mic that will produce the ideal sound you’re looking for. Or use it in live performance to get the sound of mics you’d never consider bringing on stage. You can even use it during mixdown to effectively change the mic on an already recorded track. And with the ability to download new models from our web site, the Microphone Modeler will always keep you at the forefront of the microphone art.

Have It Your Way

The Microphone Modeler is available as a plug-in for TDM, MAS Mac VST, RTAS, and DirectX. And for those who prefer a self-contained solution, there’s the AMM-1 stand-alone rack-mount processor. And best of all, whichever version you choose, you can expect to pay substantially less than even a single modestly exotic mic.

Mac TDM and RTAS versions compatible with Pro Tools|HD (OS 9 & OS X)
and Pro Tools 6 (OS X).
Proprietary DSP-based acoustic modeling allows any reasonable quality microphone to sound like any of a wide variety of high-end studio mics.
Models reproduce the effects of windscreens, low-cut filters, pattern-dependent frequency response and proximity effects.
Create hybrid mics that combine the bass response of one mic with the treble response of another.
Add a model of classic tube saturation distortion.
Use during mixdown to change the mic on an already recorded track.
Incredibly simple to use -- simply select the mic you’re using and the mic you want it to sound like.
Includes an extensive collection of digital models of historical classics, modern exotics, and industry-standard workhorses.
Additional models can be downloaded from the Antares web site.

Modeled Microphones

The following is the list of the mics that shipped with the TDM Version 1.0 CD-ROM. We have a lot more in the pipeline and we’ll be adding mics to the "New Arrivals" list below as their modeling is completed. If you’d like to see us model a mic that’s currently not on the list, email your suggestion to: info@antarestech.com with the words "Mic Suggestion" in the subject line. We can’t promise that we’ll be able to model every one, but if we see certain mics getting a lot of votes, we’ll do our best to have them included.
