The Ultimate Recording Mic?
Since the early days of recording, sound
engineers have been searching for the
best-sounding mics for recording acoustic
instruments and the human voice.
The resounding choice of professional
recordists around the globe has been
the tube condenser microphone. Why?
Because nothing compares to the sound
captured by a good tube condenser
microphone — so open, warm and full
of character.
But tube mics can wipe out a
home-recording budget faster than
you can say "phantom power supply".
That's why we're so very proud to present

The sound of tubes is undeniably rich
and smooth. At the heart of each of these
mics is a hand-selected 12AX7 tube,
which has been specifi cally designed to
give these microphones their incredible
sonic character. One advantage tube
condensers have over their solid-state
counterparts is they are not subject to
the rapid rise of odd-order harmonics,
which the ear perceives as highly
unmusical. Even when subjected to high
sound pressure levels, the T-1 and T-47
mics react in much the same way the
human ear does.
T-1 and T-47 Have a Sensitive Side
Another advantage is that tube mics
typically outperform transistor designs
when it comes to subtle signal levels,
such as environmental ambience. The T-1
and T-47 pick up every nuance of your
performance, capturing an openly
