Universal Audio UA Sphere DLX Mic System

Discover the Cutting-Edge Sphere DLX Mic System
Enter the innovative realm of sound capture with the Universal Audio Sphere DLX microphone modeling system. This system is not just a microphone; it's an expansive studio tool that brings the characteristics of 38 legendary microphones into your recording environment. Utilizing a high-quality large-diaphragm condenser mic paired with sophisticated software, the Sphere DLX allows you to not only record but also select and tweak your mic model and polar patterns post-recording. This feature sets it apart as a revolutionary tool for modern producers who need flexibility and precision.

Advanced Dual-Capsule Design for Superior Capture
Why settle for less when you can have the comprehensive capture capabilities of the Sphere DLX? Its dual-capsule, dual-output design records more detailed sound fields, capturing directional and distance information that traditional single-channel mics miss. This design is crucial for the Sphere technology to reconstruct the intricate ways different microphones interact with the acoustical environment, making it a powerhouse for those seeking to achieve perfect recording conditions without the limitations of mic placement.

Sphere DSP Software: A Gateway to Iconic Mic Sounds
The heart of the Sphere DLX's versatility lies in its powerful DSP software. Compatible with AAX, VST3, and AU plugin formats and optimized for real-time UAD processing, this software offers unprecedented low-latency performance. This allows you to emulate the detailed polar patterns and off-axis sonic characteristics of vintage mics, bringing their unique sound right into your studio without the need for the actual mic.

Unmatched Sonic Flexibility
With the Sphere DLX, your recordings are not just captured; they are crafted. Choose from models of iconic mics like the 47, 67, 87, and more, adjusting settings even after the recording is done. This mic system also includes options like Sphere Linear and Sphere Direct, providing you with the flexibility to use the raw mic sound or modify it to replicate the tonal characteristics of historical recording equipment.

Durability Meets Vintage Fidelity
Contrary to the delicate nature of some vintage mics, the Sphere DLX stands out with its robust build, capable of handling sound pressure levels exceeding 140dB without distortion and maintaining an exceptionally low self-noise of 7dB-A. This makes it not only a match for the sonic quality of classic mics but also a more reliable choice for high-pressure recording situations.
