From AEA
Every Distance—One Kit
The NUVO Flight puts AEA’s full range of active ribbon technology in a single package. Three purpose-built microphones that cover every recording scenario from inches to feet. All three microphones share AEA’s proven active architecture: custom Lehle transformer, 141 dB SPL handling, and are Phantom-powered with consistent output—no specialized preamps required.
Ships in a rugged hardshell flight case with custom-molded foam—ready for your next session or tour.
- N22 | Near-Field (1–18”) Voiced for close-miking with natural proximity compensation and a presence lift that brings ribbon warmth to vocals, guitar amps, and kick drums.
- N13 | Mid-Field (8–36”) Ultra-thin 1.2-micron ribbon delivers enhanced transient detail for drum overheads, acoustic instruments, and strings at working distance.
- N8 | Far-Field (12” to 20+ ft) Flat, open, and transparent—captures rooms and ensembles as faithfully as human ears hear them.
