About Apex Apex460B

When recording precision and tonal richness are paramount, the Apex460B Large Diaphragm Multi-Pattern Tube Studio Condenser Microphone stands as a formidable contender in the realm of professional audio capture. Engineered to deliver unparalleled versatility and a warm, full-bodied sound signature, the Apex460B competes with the industry's high-end microphones, offering a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality.

At the heart of the Apex460B's superior performance lies its wide diaphragm vacuum tube design, which is adept at capturing the subtle nuances of vocal and instrumental performances. The inclusion of a 12AT7 vacuum tube in the preamp stage infuses recordings with a desirable warmth and smooth transient response that solid-state microphones struggle to emulate.

The Apex460B's external power supply features a front panel equipped with a selector switch, granting access to nine distinct polar patterns. This level of control extends beyond the standard trio of Omnidirectional, Cardioid, and Figure-8 patterns, incorporating three additional gradient stages between each primary setting. This flexibility allows for fine-tuning the microphone's response to suit a wide array of recording situations, from capturing the natural ambiance of a room to isolating a specific sound source with precision.

Designed to withstand the demands of both studio and live environments, the Apex460B boasts a robust construction and an impressive high SPL handling capability. Its durability and performance make it an excellent choice for live sound reinforcement and live recording applications. Whether it's serving as an overhead microphone for drum kits, capturing the roar of guitar or bass cabinets, or delicately picking up the intricate tones of woodwind instruments and acoustic strings, the Apex460B excels in delivering clarity and detail.

In summary, the Apex460B is not just a microphone but a versatile tool that adapts to the diverse needs of professional studio engineers, home recording enthusiasts, and live sound technicians. Its ability to provide superior sound quality and handle high sound pressure levels, all while being accessible at an affordable price point, makes it a top selection for anyone seeking to elevate their audio recording capabilities.
