Manufacturer's Description from Other

The M1 is a new tube microphone. A whole new circuit design inspired by the vintage greats. Designed by Andrew Myburgh, Andreas Grosser and Eckehard Dux.

Capsule & Tube

The M1 incorporates a German made Mylar M7 capsule manufactured by Siegfried Thiersch and a Russian military grade long life tube.

Amplifier & Transformers

The M1’s amplifier has an incredible linear frequency response with minimal cut off below 30Hz or over 20kHz. With two custom built transformers; one in the mic and another in the power supply, the amplifier design, combined with the German made capsule and the new capsule headbasket design give the M1 its unique sound.

Noise Floor, Output & SPL

The M1 also has a super low noise floor, a monster output and handles SPL like your favourite FET kick drum mic does. Variable polar patterns and true cardioid is a main feature.

Unprecedented Build Quality

Largely made of brass, the M1’s build quality is unprecedented. All metalwork is custom designed and manufactured. The mechanical lifespan of the M1 is intended to last far beyond the typical modern day microphone. Built to last a few lifetimes infact.

Benchmarking The Vintage Greats

Through our development phase we benchmarked extremely well maintained original U47 and U67 microphones. These microphones were also used for the recording of our comparison files.
