Oktava_L-Studio

Oktava «L-studio» / «mini tube» PML-02

Oktava “mini tube” is a new extension to the 100 Series microphones, which fits all available capsules of this series: MK-012, MK-101, MK-102, MK-103 and MK-104.

This remarkable microphone preamplifier combines the warmth and clarity associated with tube technology and the presence of the capsule design for which Oktava is famous. Selected Russian military 6С6Б-В tube combined with a special powerblock design gives enough third-harmonic content to brighten and add warmth to any sound source.

The “mini tube” is for those who need one all round, multi purpose microphone, and suits digital recording perfectly by adding the character that can often be missing in digital recordings, while maintaining a very low noise floor. It is a very valuable addition to the microphone cupboards of larger studios having its own unique character which could be that elusive something extra during recording.

Improved version of Oktava’s famous ML-52 and ML-52A-02 with a greatly improved windscreen, which protect a very sensitive filament from blast and moisture much better. Moreover it has an additional roll-off in low frequencies which compensates for the unavoidable bass boost that occurs with all pressure gradient transducers when they are used at close distance (proximity effect).

moonmic-chrome

DW Moon Mic (sub kick)

A Moon Mic™ is an acoustic drum resonating head (skin) Microphone! The Moon Mic™ will revolutionize the way you think about Mic-ing an acoustic drum. The Moon Mic™ microphone has a very large diaphragm that encompasses a large range of vibrations directly from the resonating head (skin).

Positioning the microphone from the center of the drum (LOWS) to the rim (HIGHS) gives you control. Punch, sustain, and decay can be controlled by the distance between skin and microphone.

The Moon Mic™ is designed for bass kick drums or bass instruments with high SPL (sound pressure levels). The Moon Mic™ specializes in low frequencies.

The Moon Mic™ DK27 microphone comes with a DW mounting stand, allowing the stability, durability, and versatility you’ve come to expect from DW. No need for an Attenuator (Pad). Moon Mic’s™ low impedance, 250 ohms delivers a smooth signal.

The Moon Mic™ will receive a custom range of frequencies coming from the kick drum without heavy EQ, compression, or any other signal processing. +48V Phantom power not required to operate.
