Tallman, NY (August 30, 2022)—Avantone Pro has unveiled its new BV-1 mkII tube-driven, large-diaphragm condenser microphone. The mic is suggested for recording vocals, brass, mandolin, percussion, piano and guitar cabinets.
The new mic features capacitors from six different companies — France’s Solen, Germany’s EPCOS, Germany’s WIMA, Japan’s ELNA, Japan’s Nichicon and the USA’s Kyocera. The microphone also features an output transformer custom-designed by Californian company CineMag, as well as a handpicked, edge-terminated 34 mm (AKG) CK12-style capsule.
