Naked Eye Microphone
Please call for price

This is the best-selling, and most affordable Crowley and Tripp ribbon microphone. The Naked Eye microphone features similar high output, low noise characteristics of the other Crowley & Tripp microphones, but with dual voicing: A traditional darker sound on the front side of the figure eight, and a brighter rising ribbon response on the other. Tracking your electric guitar? Use the dark side right up against your cranked guitar amp. Overdubbing vocals? Spin it around and track your vocals on the bright side. The difference is big: Each side of the Naked Eye mic features its own distinct voicing.

• Dual voicing for limitless studio applications; loud guitar amps, quiet acoustic sources, vocals and more
• Traditional warm ribbon response on the front side of the figure eight
• Rising response on the back, but without the typical condenser harshness

Studio Vocalist Microphone $1795

The Studio Vocalist is an all-new, full size, professional ribbon microphone. No other natural ribbon microphone has the output level and quality of the Crowley and Tripp Studio Vocalist. It has a higher output than a stage dynamic mic, almost no self-noise, and is extremely rugged compared to conventional ribbon microphones.

The Studio Vocalist's high output level allows you to use it with the preamp of your choice. Pick out your preamp for the tone, not only for super-high gain. And you can use the output to the fullest, because of the pro-level shielding so that radios and magnetic sources won't get into the track.
Most ribbon microphones are known for their "dark" sound, not so with the Studio Vocalist. It has a smooth rising response more like a large diaphragm condenser, but without the top end harshness.

The Studio Vocalist combines the best qualities of modern dynamic and classic ribbon microphones with solid, proven techniques. It has a robust feel that extends to the precision machined, hand assembled inner workings of the microphone which are designed to last.

Hand built in USA - Lifetime Warranty!

Recordist Ensemble Stereo Kit $1995
Recordist microphone (single) $1295

If you want to record in realistic Blumlein stereo but need the flexibility not offered by an expensive integrated stereo ribbon microphone, here is your answer. The Recordist Ensemble Stereo Kit allows you to obtain startling Blumlein realism using two matched, full-response Recordist mics, along with the innovative and versatile stereo mounting kit - all in one affordable package.Use the stereo mounting kit as a vertical array and dial in the cross-angle that the situation requires. You aren't limited to 90 degrees for Blumlein - a helpful advantage when you have other mics on stage or in the studio. And the stereo mount makes it easy to dial in just the right angle, and lock the Recordist mics in place. Recording acoustic guitar, piano, or a horn section? Classical or jazz ensemble performance? Use the stereo kit on your boom stand as shown. Angle the Recordist mics any way you want, you are not locked in to one position. Adjust the null, the sweet spot and the relative angles easily. And of course you can use each Recordist mic separately: these matched, sequentially numbered pairs don't mind performing standard duty on guitar cabinets, or as spot mics on percussion. The Recordist Ensemble Stereo Kit is now shipping in a stage-appropriate gunmetal grey finish, with a rugged Pelican™ case, stereo mounting kit, and a three-year warranty.• Blumlein Stereo – Classic realism
