Description

Here's what Mojave have to say: 

The challenge? Create a transformerless microphone circuit without the inherent problems found in transformerless microphones. TECHNICAL GRAMMY® Award-winning microphone designer David Royer has created a thoroughly modern microphone that rises to that challenge: the new MA-50BLK. Designed to produce the clarity and realism that Mojave microphones are known for, at an entry level price, the MA-50BLK outperforms well-known transformerless mics costing many times more.

The MA-50BLK is the perfect microphone for pros and semi-pros alike. Utilizing the same single-sided capsule as the MA-200SN and MA-201VG, it handles the fastest transients with ease – even up to 140 dB.

Features:

  • Large-diaphragm cardioid 3-micron capsule
  • Fixed-cardioid polar pattern
  • Transformerless circuitry
  • Very low noise
  • Includes professional shock mount
  • Simple – yet elegant design – perfect for home recording
  • High SPL handling
  • Fast transient response

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.
