Violet Design PEARL-VOCAL

The Pearl Series of professional electrostatic microphones from Violet Design are designed for studio vocal recording and handheld stage applications. The Pearl Vocal is the ultimate condenser handheld stage microphone! The medium-sized single diaphragm capsule provides high acoustic transparency and can handle sound pressure levels of up to 144dB without overload. It has been tuned for a modern, detailed vocal sound with extended vocal presence and optimized low-end response.

The innovative physical design includes a rear-ported spherical head and a special narrow tapered form reflector to reduce internal resonances and reflections and optimize the unidirectional cardioid polar pattern. A soft center band around the circumference of the head minimizes shock and handling noise. Internal shockmounts reduce stand rumble, outside infrasonic interference and mechanical shocks. The internal phantom powered preamplifier's Class 'A' fully discrete transformerless circuit provides high output, flat audio response and ultra low distortion and noise. The output connectors are gold plated for best possible signal transfer.

This is the ideal microphone for live jazz, pop and rock vocalists! It is also perfect for brass, woodwinds, percussionists, drummers and in capturing guitar amplifiers. Available in red, black, white, violet, and gold.
