The Electro-Voice RE1000 is a hidden gem among professional true condenser microphones, originally developed as a flagship studio workhorse in EV’s celebrated RE series. Featuring an externally polarized, true condenser capsule paired with a transformerless, low-noise preamplifier circuit, the RE1000 delivers remarkable transient speed, high sensitivity, and an open, transparent frequency response that stands out in its class.

While many know Electro-Voice primarily for their world-class dynamic mics, the RE1000 showcases the brand's precision transducer engineering in a condenser format. Designed with an internal shock-mount system and an integrated pop filter, it handles high SPLs effortlessly while providing a tight cardioid pickup pattern that rejects off-axis room reflections with exceptional phase accuracy.

The Electro-Voice RE1000 is a professional true condenser microphone designed for critical studio recording, broadcast, and high-end sound reinforcement. Representing Electro-Voice's commitment to precision acoustic engineering, the RE1000 utilizes an externally polarized, low-mass true condenser capsule to deliver wide frequency response, exceptional transient detail, and ultra-low self-noise.

Engineered with a high-efficiency transformerless output stage, the RE1000 provides pristine signal integrity with high dynamic headroom and minimal harmonic distortion. To ensure clean recording in challenging environments, the capsule is suspended in an advanced internal shock-mount system that isolates the transducer from mechanical floor vibration and handling noise. Housed in a heavy-duty, die-cast zinc body with a non-reflective finish, the RE1000 combines studio-grade sonic accuracy with rugged broadcast durability.

Key Features

• Externally Polarized True Condenser Capsule: Low-mass diaphragm delivers extended high-frequency response, fast transient accuracy, and exceptional acoustic sensitivity.

• Low-Noise Transformerless Circuitry: Advanced active output stage minimizes harmonic distortion and phase shift while providing high dynamic headroom ($130\text{ dB}$).

• Internal Multi-Stage Shock Mount: Advanced internal capsule isolation decouples the transducer from mechanical vibration, stand rumble, and handling noise.

• Integrated Blast & Pop Filtering: Built-in acoustic baffles reduce plosive breath pops and wind turbulence without dampening high-frequency clarity.

• Rugged Die-Cast Construction: Durable zinc alloy housing with a non-reflective velvet-finish gray coating built for rigorous studio and broadcast environments.
