This design offers a true figure 8 pattern. The corrugated aluminum membrane itself is positioned in the center from front to back, thus producing a balanced audio input signal to both sides of the ribbon assembly. This design is very useful when executing a mid-side or Blumlein recording set-up and also great for live stage use. The FAT HEAD warm full-bodied signature and increased sensitivity is what you would expect and demand from a professional ribbon microphone and the FAT HEAD delivers. The FAT HEAD is suited for guitar cabinets, drum over-heads, vocal, piano, horns, strings, and much more. Specifications: Type: Ribbon (velocity) Microphone Ribbon type & Dimensions: 99% Pure aluminum, 2.5 micron, 1 3/4" (L) X 3/16" (W) Polar pattern: Figure 8 Symmetrical design Sensitivity: -56 db. +/- 2 dB (0 dB=1V/Pa) Frequency response: See PDF below Output Impedance: 1000 Ohms Max.

Recorded trumpet and absolutely loved the results with this ribbon mic. Definitely plan to pair with some other instruments and pres.

Very good microphone for my purposes. Captures great, dynamic vocals without having to be too close to the microphone (which is what I wanted to avoid). The most comfortable mic I've ever used (& I typically dislike using mics).

Definitely worth the money, definitely a nice intro to ribbon mics! I'll upgrade to something with a little less noise (there's a bit of a hum) at some point, but for now I can't afford a crazy nice ribbon and this does the trick for getting a warmer, rounder sound on harsher instruments.

I was very surprised by the sound and response that I received from using this mic recording brass instruments. This mic is a must in the studio. I highly recommend it!,
