Microphones

Microphones are essential tools for capturing sound in recording, broadcast, and live performance. Different microphone types are designed for different sources, environments, and uses, from studio vocals and instruments to live sound and field recording. Choosing the right microphone depends on factors such as sound source, room acoustics, sensitivity, and the character you want to capture.

Ribbon

Ribbon microphones are prized for their smooth, natural sound and warm tonal character. They are especially valued in studio recording for capturing sources without harshness, making them ideal for vocals, guitar amplifiers, brass, strings and drum overheads where detail and depth are needed without exaggerated high frequencies.

Using a thin metal ribbon suspended in a magnetic field, ribbon microphones respond quickly to transients and deliver a rich, balanced midrange. They are often chosen when a classic, vintage-style sound is desired, and they work particularly well in controlled studio environments where their sensitivity and tonal subtlety can be fully appreciated.

Studio

Studio microphones are designed for high-quality recording where detail, accuracy and tonal balance are essential. They are used in professional and home studios to capture vocals and instruments with clarity, depth and a wide frequency response.

Commonly condenser or ribbon designs, studio mics are valued for their sensitivity and ability to pick up subtle nuances. They are ideal for vocals, acoustic instruments, drum overheads and detailed sound sources, making them a core part of any recording setup where sound quality is the priority.
