Hi Paul, great video, especially like your exploration of the different polar patterns, didn't see that anywhere else as much.

[@QFXmusic]

Great video :-) I have the duo and look forward to using it

Great video!!

[@stevenishizu2645]

Great video. hey what are the songs you're playing on guitar there? They sound so familiar to me, but I can't place them.

[@opusalacarte]

I have the strip with edge duo...however when i change the emulation to figure of 8 polar pattern... No sound comes out? Any suggestions?

[@TheStudioRats]

This sounds to me like either one side of the capsule is down or there’s a problem with the lead. Contact tech support at antelope, I’m sure they can help you out.

I'd be super curious to see a review of the Slate ML2 mics.

[@TheStudioRats]

Hi Zarya. There is a video coming out soon from production expert that is going to compare the Antelope, Slate, Townsend mics.

[@manuellujan5625]

Have you compared the Edge Duo to the Townsend L22?
I just purchased the Townsend but I can't help but think about the price difference...the EDGE DUO at the moment is $800....the Townsend is at $1500 right now.

[@TheStudioRats]

wow thats a big difference, I have used both and both sound great.

[@manuellujan5625]

@@Zenvo-uu9tm I feel like I made the right choice based on so many reviews.

[@manuellujan5625]

I have not tried the EDGE BUT the Townsend sounds really really good compared to all other mics I have ever used lol so I am really happy with it!

Hello Paul- I am wondering that you have 18 Emulations in use with the Edge duo. Is this a beta release emulation software that you got from Antelope or are all the 18 emulations official released already.
I own a edge duo since more than a year but still have only 11 emulations (inkl. The edge emulation)
Could you please let me know as this is very important information for all edge duo owners. Thank you very much

[@TheStudioRats]

Hi, I haven’t got any beta software. These are the mics available from the standard download.

[@philipgrunzweig3712]

Thank you for your answer Paul... Does it mean that you are a normal customer like me or did you get the edge duo from Antelope to make a review about it?

[@philipgrunzweig3712]

How do you like the Berlin 47TU und Berlin M251 Emulations - looks like in your review that you have those emulations for the edge duo - are these two very important emulations good?

[@TheStudioRats]

Hi Philip, I’ve been sent the mic by Antelope for review. The 251 is really good.
