Violet Design The Amethyst Vintage Microphone

VIOLET DESIGN THE AMETHYST VINTAGE MICROPHONE

The Violet Design Amethyst Vintage has a grey/blue body and uses a dual large-diaphragm, center terminated dual back plate capsule which provides a classical, wide-spectrum, vintage microphone sound. Both models have a unidirectional cardioid polar pattern with minimal proximity effect and are linear over the wide frontal incidence angle. An acoustically transparent head construction reduces internal resonances and reflections. The internal capsule shockmount along with the massive body construction, reduces stand rumble, outside infrasonic interference and mechanical shocks.

Both microphones can be mounted directly on a standard microphone stand or in the optional ASM elastic shockmount. Gold plated contacts on the output XLR connector provide a noise-free connection.

The Violet Amethyst Vintage is one of our favourite professional microphones here at Camden Sounds, having used it mostly for vocal and speech recirding.

Applications:

The handy compact size and versatile mounting, combined with high SPL capability make these microphones ideal for close instrumental situations. "The Amethyst Standard" is particularly recommended for percussion and stringed instruments. For vocal applications "The Amethyst Standard" is more oriented for a male voice and "The Amethyst Vintage" for a female voice. Use them up close, within 2" to 4" to get best results. The internal amplifier and capsule are hard to overload and are well suited for close miking of vocals.
