Description

Here’s what Mojave have to say: 

The MA-301fetVG is a multi-pattern large diaphragm, solid-state condenser microphone. Based upon the popular MA-201fetVG designed by David Royer, the MA-301fetVG adds a 3-position pickup pattern selector, a 15dB pad, and a switchable bass roll-off.

Utilizing a 3-micron gold-sputtered duel-diaphragm capsule, high-quality Jensen audio transformer, military-grade FET, and custom-designed low-noise resistors, the MA-301fetVG performs at a level reminiscent of some of the best-loved classic condenser microphones. Each MA-301fetVG microphone is carefully tested and evaluated, then packaged in its protective case with a professional grade shockmount.

Condenser Microphones

Condenser microphones use a sensitive capsule design that can capture fine detail, fast transients and a broad frequency range. They are common choices for vocals, acoustic instruments, overheads, room work and studio recording, but their sensitivity also makes room sound and handling more noticeable. Compare large- or small-diaphragm construction, polar pattern, self-noise, maximum level, pad and high-pass options, and whether phantom power is required. The right condenser depends on the source, placement and acoustic environment, not simply on whether the microphone is marketed for studio use.
