Product Description
The Pearlman TM 1 tube condenser microphone was designed by and is hand made by Dave Pearlman of ROTUND RASCAL RECORDING STUDIO. It is a high-quality microphone made for professional studio use but priced for the home recordist. Many studios using digital recording, (Pro Tools, etc.), need a front end system to warm up their recordings. All Pearlman microphones include power supply, cable, shock mount, and aluminum case. This version ships with a 6CB6 JAN-quality NOS American tube.
A large-diaphragm, 6 micron, gold-sputtered capsule sends the incoming signal to an NOS 6CB6 American tube to the hand-wired circuit which includes selected WIMA polypropylene coupling capacitors to a state of the art output transformer custom-designed (to match the European Tube output impedance) by the wonderful folks at CINEMAG Transformers in Los Angeles.
This is not an assembly line microphone - each unit is hand-wired, point to point, and voltage tuned for maximum performance. The microphones were originally built to fill the need for more high-quality tube microphones and are now in demand by everyone who has heard them.
If you’re looking for a tube microphone with characteristics similar to the venerable Neumann U47 but at a tenth of the cost, then you will love this mic!
Every set includes the Pearlman TM 1, a custom-built power supply, custom tube microphone cable with Neutrik and Mogami, a heavy-duty shock mount and, a complimentary aluminum case for more protection during shipping.
