We love a chunky Black Friday music deal, and this year Guitar Center is delivering with a hefty $300 reduction on the excellent Slate Digital VMS ML-1 Modelling Mic, down from $799 to $499.

The concept is pretty straightforward - you get the ML-1 Modelling Mic, which is a fine large diaphragm condenser mic in its own right offering a flat, clean response. But the real magic is unleashed when you hook it up to the software part of Slate Digital’s Virtual Microphone System.

The plugin gives you access to eight microphone models: FG-47, FG-M7, FG-800, FG-251, FG-800M, FG-269, FG-12 AND FG-67, but get this - you can switch the mic model after the fact. Want to hear what your vocal sounds like through a classic 67? How about a small diaphragm condenser? Or maybe a renowned dynamic mic with an added tube section? You can do all of that after you’ve captured the perfect take with Slate’s VMS ML-1.
