Nude Microphones - Stereo Blumlein Ribon Microphone

MSS115690

Regular price $450.00

Some would say the "Swiss-Army of Microphones" - Most versatile microphone you'll ever own! Comprised of two perfectly matched ribbon microphones mounted as close as is physically possible (one above the other) and offset at a 90-degree angle to each other. This is what is termed a Blumlein stereo array microphone. It is phenomenal for close mic'ing of almost any source I've presented it with but particularly shines used as a drum overhead or for capturing an orchestra or ensemble and the associated room ambience. Perfectly suited to capturing horn sections and taming their bite. Close mic'ing a guitar will reveal a sense of movement and depth, you'll hear each hand. Perfect for string sections, capture the entire string section with a single mic and marvel at the luscious stereo panorama. It comes finely presented in an aluminium flight case containing the microphone in a heavily padded soft case, 5 metre (5pin) cable, passive split box to L/R 3pin xlr outs, a solid shock mount and a pop filter.
