ADK S-7B Condensor Microphone

Product Description

Description: The ADK S-7B is a professional transformer-less FET cardioid condenser microphone designed to be a High-SPL, reliable and robust microphone with a distinctly “mellow” sound coloration. A Capacitor Mic that sounds like a Ribbon. Translation: a very smooth, rich, robust tone-coloration.

The dynamic range was set to allow for relatively heavy sound pressure levels, and the two-way Pad enables this microphone to be used with sources up to 150 dB SPL. You may never record a jet plane or a loud rock-concert, but you can with an S-7.  A “round” tone to tame sibilance, nasality, or overly-bright source-material.

The S-7B is a solid, reliable “High-SPL” Studio Microphone built for both Live Recording and Reinforcement.
