Take your studio recordings to the next level with the CV-12 BLA Black Lion Modded Multi-Pattern Large-Diaphragm Tube Microphone, a testament to the fusion of Avantone Pro's commitment to quality and Black Lion Audio's renowned modification expertise. This professional-grade microphone stands out as a versatile and reliable choice for audio professionals seeking high-quality sound capture in a variety of settings.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the CV-12 BLA boasts a redesigned circuit that delivers a flatter frequency response, ensuring that your recordings exhibit a natural and balanced sound profile. The modification has tamed the high-mid bump characteristic of the classic CV-12, while the introduction of a new 34mm CK12 styled capsule enhances the microphone's ability to smoothly articulate highs and bolster lows, achieving a harmonious balance across the full frequency range.
The microphone's increased headroom allows it to serve as a utilitarian workhorse in the studio or on stage, excelling with full-range sound sources. Whether you're capturing the subtle nuances of vocals, the dynamic range of drums, or the rich tones of a grand piano, the CV-12 BLA adapts to each application with grace and precision.
The CV-12 BLA's internal components have been carefully selected for their sonic transparency, including the Solen FastCap coupling capacitor, which contributes to the microphone's pristine audio fidelity. The newly designed power supply features a low-noise circuit, minimizing interference and ensuring that your recordings are crystal clear.
This durable microphone comes equipped with the innovative Jetsun shock mount, which not only isolates the microphone from stand-borne vibrations but also features an open front design. This allows for closer placement to the sound source, enabling artists to leverage the proximity effect for added warmth and presence in their recordings.
Encased in a sleek black faux alligator skin case, the CV-12 BLA is not only protected during transport but also exudes a professional aesthetic that complements any studio environment. The robust metal construction and XLR and XLR7 connectors ensure a secure and stable connection to your mixing console or digital audio workstation.
In summary, the CV-12 BLA Black Lion Modded Multi-Pattern Large-Diaphragm Tube Microphone is an exceptional choice for discerning audio professionals who demand high-quality, versatile, and reliable recording equipment. With its refined sound, professional design, and Black Lion Audio's signature modifications, this microphone is poised to capture your audio with unparalleled clarity and depth.
