List of included emulations (18):
-
Berlin 47 FT - by far the ultimate kick drum microphone, with a big, full-bodied sound and unmatched low end that works well for bass amps too.
-
Berlin 47 TU - modeled after the “holy grail” of tube microphones, it can be used for any source, but it especially claims its fame for its ability to capture the presence of vocals like no other microphone. - Berlin 49T - a classic male vocal microphone with the natural warmth of a tube, while preserving musical presence.
-
Berlin 57 - warm mids and velvety highs like its Berlin 47 and 67 siblings, but with a slightly less colored reproduction.
-
Berlin 67 - the perfect choice for drum overheads and other sharp instruments that need to be smoothed out.
