Universal Audio Sphere LX Modeling Microphone

Record through 20 of the greatest mics ever made.

Sphere LX is built upon the same powerful mic modeling technology found in our flagship DLX model, giving you the sound of classic mics used by everyone from The Beatles to Beyoncé in a smaller, more affordable package.

Explore 20 Classic Models

With the included Sphere Mic Collection software — allowing you to instantly pull up legendary mic models from Neumann, Telefunken, AKG, Sony, and more — Sphere LX puts the sound of 20 classic microphones at the ready.

Find Your Perfect Sound in Realtime

Sphere LX lets you audition classic mics before, during, and after recording. You can do this with any audio interface in any DAW. But with an Apollo, you unlock realtime workflows so it all happens with immediacy and precision, and doesn’t affect your performance.

Combine Two Mics Like Never Before

In Dual Mode, the Sphere mic modeling system allows you to blend any two mics, perfectly in-phase. This means you can start with a classic-sounding mic combination, then tailor it to find sounds that have never been heard before, all while only setting up a single microphone.

Remove the Room for Clear Recordings

With Sphere LX’s Off-Axis Correction and IsoSphere™ technology, you can easily tame room sounds and reflections for cleaner, more professional recordings. With its expert presets tailored for the toughest acoustic spaces like bedrooms or project studios, Sphere LX comes ready to use alongside popular iso filters from sE Reflexion Filters, Aston Halo, Kaotica Eyeball, and more.*

Get Ready to Record

Sphere LX includes a mic standmount, 25' dual-output XLR cable, and carrying case — so you'll be ready to create with the sound of legendary mics the minute you unpack the box.

Featured Mic Models

LD-47K

The classic 47-style mic is the ultimate studio workhorse. Its thick “sit in the mix” sound has been used by everyone from The Beatles and Frank Sinatra to countless modern artists. A go-to choice for vocals, this mic sounds equally amazing on acoustic guitars, bass, and drums.**


LD-67 NOS

This coveted mic was famously used for lead vocals on classics like “Hey Jude” and "Sympathy for the Devil” along with Nirvana’s Nevermind album. Our model is based on a custom 67 mic using new-old-stock parts offering a smooth and musical sound, useful on almost anything.**


LD-87 Vintage

A mid-'70s solid-state mic that would come to define the midrange-forward sound of 80’s pop vocals. We modeled the low-cut and pad, giving you the ability to tailor the mic’s response to your source and environment.


LD-251

Built upon the coveted CK12 brass capsule and 6072 tube, the 251 is widely considered one of the greatest mics ever made. Its huge, smooth sound has allowed artists from Dolly Parton to Celine Dion to capture incredible vocal recordings for decades.**


LD-414 US

This nylon capsule condenser delivers clear, transparent sound. One of the greatest “all around” mics ever made, it excels at everything from intimate vocals and voice overs to high-impact toms and percussion.


DN-7

Renowned for its use on high-profile records by everyone from Michael Jackson to Metallica, this ubiquitous cardioid dynamic mic can also be found in radio and broadcasting studios around the world. By adjusting the AXIS control, you can get the sound of the mic without a windscreen — a “studio secret” favored by pro engineers.**


DN-20

This industry-standard broadcasting mic has applications ranging from vocals to kick drums. Its presence boost and high frequency dip minimize sibilance, and with the filter switch you can get additional tone shaping by cutting below 400 Hz.


RB-121

The R-121 set the standard for modern ribbon mics, and has become a classic in its own right. Featuring a figure-8 pattern, this mic is unique in that the rear side is brighter than the front. Thus, our RB-121 model is a good option for A/B’ing on sources that you’re not sure about — using the Axis control to quickly hear a brighter or darker sound.


SD-416

The SD-416 is based on an industry standard shotgun microphone, commonly used in voice-over studios — it’s a go-to for that big Hollywood sound. Our SD-416 model has a super-cardioid pattern, which is less directional at higher frequencies, meaning it’s more forgiving when the talent moves off-axis.

Exceeded expectations

We have 2 tower speakers, 4 ceiling speakers, a center speaker, and two subwoofers and, wow, the sound is amazing. The key is the microphone which is used to set the relative volume and delay time for each speaker. Comes with media app which allows access to my audio files on my network storage device and lots of streaming apps. Kudos to Yamaha.

1 yr review of buying a used RX-V6A
Style: Receiver
GOAT amplifier for a 7.2CH amp for such good price! Got it for even cheaper because I bought it used. Apparently was a demo unit at an expo. The amp is notorious for blowing up the HDMI passthrough chip but it did not happen to me. It supports HDMI 2.1 with ease! Very sharp and sophisticated amp with not a lot of buttons. Most of it can be controlled by a remote or with an app, which is easy to setup. If not, follow the manual. Decent power too. 100W/channel. Enough to drive my Klipsch bi-amping Dolby Atmos Speakers. Drives them with ease. This is a 1 yr review. And despite owning a used product, which was on an expo (assuming it was used heavily), the amp is running strong after much usage even a year later. Has all it's functionality intact. Best 7.2 CH amp ever. Yamaha YPAO really makes the effort of speaker tuning easy too.
