Sonic Supremacy

Console-Grade and Fully Discrete Preamps for Best-In-Class Sound
Discrete 4 was developed after an extensive research of legendary microphone preamp circuitry. The Antelope Audio FPGA engine transforms its already expensive sounding Accusonic preamps into several classic units. It's all happening real-time and with as authentic responsiveness as possible.

Authentic Vintage Sound

Enjoy the Sound of Legendary FX Gear in Your DAW
The Antelope Audio real-time FPGA platform is now extended to a complete professional studio experience - Microphones, Preamps, Conversion, Compressors, EQs and Reverb. Use them within the Discrete 4 EasyPanel or in your preferred DAW via the AFX2DAW Plugin. Perform and record either with FX or process in post-production.

Giving you Complete Control

Transform Edge & Verge into Vintage Replicas
Inside the Discrete 4 FPGA Accusonic 3D modeling engine you can transform both Edge and Verge into vintage replicas giving you complete control over proximity effect and even allow you to change polar patterns during or after recording. Choose from a collection of classic and expensive microphones and track the results as you monitor live, bringing out a musician's best possible performance.

Rock-Solid Clocking

Proprietary Jitter Management Technologies
Like all things Antelope Audio, Discrete 4 is a rock-solid clocking solution itself. It comes packed with the 4th Generation 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) technology you already know from Antelope classics like Trinity, OCX HD and Pure2. Two Word Clock outputs allow you to distribute clock signal to your other digital gear.

Flexible Monitoring

Maintain Multiple Mixes and Exchange Presets
Monitoring feature in Discrete 4 is super flexible and a breeze to set up. Create up to 4 individual monitoring mixes. Send them to Headphones or Monitor Outputs with or without the FPGA FX you've stacked. Vintage EQ, Compression and authentic guitar amp emulations will allow the recording artists to experience convincing sound, which is as close to the final product as possible. With Discrete 4 users can save and load AFX presets and exchange settings with all Antelope Audio FPGA-equipped interfaces. Share your own FX settings with other devices and users.

Advanced Remote Control

Control Discrete 4 with Free Desktop and Mobile Apps
The free to download Discrete 4 remote App allows you to adjust all microphone input levels. It grants you full control over the Monitoring and Headphone volumes. Musicians can now control their own headphone volume through their smartphones.

- Premium Upgrade Pack for Discrete 4 -

All of those can now be used in your preferred DAW with the AFX2DAW plugin provided in this premium pack.

- Edge Duo Modeling Microphone -

The Ultimate Microphone to Complete Your Mic Locker
This high-quality dual-membrane large-diaphragm condenser microphone captures vocals and instruments with pristine clarity, depth and detail, making it the perfect starting point for emulating a plethora of timeless studio microphones.

Edge Duo's dual-membrane capsule design feeds two separate XLR output channels via the included Y-cable, which allow the Duo to accurately emulate the characteristic on- and off-axis response of each mic for true multi-dimensional mic modeling.

Single Capsule, Dual Membrane Condenser
Housed in a specially designed low-resonance body with a sleek matte black finish, Edge Duo features a 6-micron gold-sputtered dual-membrane capsule.

Switchable Polar Patterns
Edge Duo's dual-membrane capsule design feeds two separate XLR output channels via the included Y-cable. This allows it to accurately emulate the characteristic on- and off-axis response of each mic for true multi-dimensional mic modeling.

Extensive Library of Vintage Mic Emulations
Edge Duo is able to call on an extensive and ever-expanding collection of classic legendary mic emulations, with more models soon to be released.

A Legendary Library
Meticulously measured from original examples in one of the most respected facilities in Germany.

Unique Design
Edge Duo features a 6-micron gold-sputtered dual-membrane capsule. It provides an incredibly smooth, rich and organic response that the powerful Antelope Audio modeling engine can shape into the true sound of some of the most expensive and sought-after microphones in the history of audio recording.

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 Duo 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 Duo 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.
