As part of Slate Digital's Virtual Microphone System, the ML-2 is your gateway to the legendary sounds of classic microphones. This neutral-sounding small-diaphragm modeling mic captures even the loudest sources with clinical precision the perfect blank canvas to use with Slate's microphone emulations. The ML-2's compact size allows you to place it in tighter spots than their ML-1 large-diaphragm mic, but gives you the same sonic flexibility during tracking and mixdown when used with a Slate Digital VMS-ONE mic preamp or VRS8 audio interface.
