sE Electronics VR1 Voodoo Ribbon Microphone with Shockmount and Case

The sE Electronics VR1 is a Voodoo Passive Ribbon Microphone with Shockmount and Case. The VR1, a passive ribbon to bring out the bite and edge from your guitar cabs with no muddy highs. The VR ribbon microphones from sE mark a new era for ribbon mic technology. Until the VR Series, the only ribbon mic in the world to perform across 20Hz-20kHz was our own Rupert Neve collaboration, the RNR1. This was achieved using state-of-the-art custom transformers and a Rupert Neve-designed circuit to reveal HF usually absent. The result is a superbly detailed, open and natural recording of acoustic instruments and guitar cabs. The VR1's ability to perform - coupled with their unique look have already made them a secret weapon for top musicians and engineers worldwide.
