Blue Cactus Nine-Pattern Classic Tube Mic

The Blue Cactus is a classic-sounding multi-pattern valve mic with 9 selectable patterns. It offers a detailed high-end response as well as classic smooth midrange for vintage up-front vocals.

The Cactus delivers a commanding, intimate presence with larger-than-life detail that is reminiscent of the world’s finest and most well respected vintage designs. At a distance, the Cactus’ B7 capsule delivers every nuance in the room, with finely focused resolution and clear, musical frequency response to the extremes of the audible spectrum. Up close, with its detailed highs and smooth midrange, the nine-pattern Cactus excels at delivering a vocal or solo track right to the front of the mix. The amplifier is a transformer-balanced single vacuum tube sub-miniature pentode in a triode mode, along with the highest quality hand-selected electronic components to insure absolute minimum noise and distortion.
