Pinnacle Microphones Fat Top II Ribbon Microphone

A studio secret weapon for guitar cabs, drums, and more! Fat Top II mods the classic "fat head" mic with a Lundahl transformer for extended frequency range.

The Fat Top II is a short ribbon passive microphone that delivers a smooth, warm, rich, fat, rounded tone. Produces a well-rounded sound without the need to EQ out the brittle or sharp highs. This microphone will roll off the high frequencies that will help with perceived warmth. The bi-directional polar pattern picks up sound essentially equally from both faces with a large null between faces, ideal for isolating sound sources. Its frequency and sensitivity response deliver pristine audio results. Translates natural analog sound into the digital domain, giving warmth and smoothness to what could otherwise be a cold and sterile digital recording.

Versatile enough to handle any vocals or instruments in recording and live sound applications. Can be used in pairs in a Blumlein setup to pick up the entire room. Fat Top II comes standard fitted with the upgraded Lundahl LL2913 transformer. Introducing the upgraded Lundahl to the already quality hardware makes for an extended frequency range. This gives the mic improved definition, lower floor and higher ceiling. Best suited for guitar cabinets, piano, brass and percussion instruments.

Handling Instructions:
Ribbon microphones are not designed to withstand excessive air-pressure. The Ribbon is made up of a very thin corrugated aluminum ribbon under light tension. Use for close mic'ing of a kick-drum or vocals can cause damage to the ribbon. Use of a Pop-Filter will reduce the air-pressure and increase life of microphone. When not in use, microphone should be cased to protect from unwanted air-pressure and/or damage. This product is Phantom Power safe.
